With a preselected Downstroke Clubshaft Plane of TS and Adjusted Address of Elbow, does this mean a plane shift from Impact Fix (8.2) to Adjusted Address (8.3)?
Thanks DRW

That's not a simple question to ask.

Anyone who can ask that question, knows the answer.

I’ll bite. Here’s a “by the Book” answer.

There is one imperative definition – except with 10-9-B, Impact conditions are not the same as in the Address except for Clubshaft angle.

This is significant. If the Clubshaft is moved from leaning forward at Impact, to Vertical at Address, which is UP-Plane, then the Hands may be 1" higher at Address than at Fixed to remain on the same Plane.

“Except for special purposes, Address Position is NEVER Impact Position. See 4-D-1. Address is a fluid position midway between the directions of the weight shifting and makes it easier to keep both the Clubshaft and the Right Forearm “On Plane” because both can be pointing up at nearly the same point along the Plane Line during Start Up. Study 2-G, 2-J, 3-F-5 and 9-2.”

But lets be fair. The two above quotes are a bit cryptic.

Your question mentions “Downstroke Clubshaft Plane” and “Adjusted Address of Elbow”. That means you understand that it is Elbow Location and the angle of the Right Forearm, not simply Elbow Bend that defines an On-Plane Right Forearm.

That brings up the “Triangle” and the #4 Accumulator out-of-line Address Angle, Right Elbow Bend and the Height of the Hands at Address. All of this determines along which Plane that Extensor Action and Magic of the Right Forearm with the Left Arm Checkrein direct the Right Elbow.

So, though “Right Elbow Action either powers and/or controls all three elements of Three Dimensional Impact”, Extensor Action Holds the strokes Elbow path to the Same Plane it touched at Address.

HMM? Ya better have that Right Elbow on-plane at Address.

THEREFORE: Plane Shifts are caused by the Right Elbow not being at the Right Location at the Right Time......... PIVOT CONTROLLED HANDS

Who is DOCW3? Thanks for the Question.
