The Pink lines would indicate a One Piece Shoulder-turn Takeaway from Address.

He has moved the Hands more than the shoulders and the Clubhead more than the hands and he has moved his head about 3" off of the ball in this sequence. It looks like he starts the Clubhead, then hands, then shoulders, then head, or Head and Body first, then Clubhead, Hands then shoulders.

Notice that he moved his right elbow? Very different than the Right Forearm takeaway. The RFT uses stationary shoulders and a stationary right elbow.

It sounds like either you're moving your left shoulder during the RFT or you're not using the Magic of the Right Forearm and Left Arm Checkrein after the RFT to direct your right elbow and Backstroke to the top.

The RFT feels like the Swing is in front of you, not around you.
Not gonna be as much "pick up" in Hogan's plane though. Also . . . I think the reason he keeps the club that low to the ground is the "lagging clubhead" takeaway . . . the weight of the club may actually be UNCOCKING his left wrist as he goes back some . . ??? not sure . . .
