I put this in Advanced for a few reasons, including showing the ability of the camera. And, yes I have a face-on view. But, I changed one of the settings and got a little blur. I want to get it without blur, next time I see him. Then, I'll post it. It's even better than the down-the-line.
Drew: I'd say his Left Wrist has a minimal amount of cocking, and it is Turned.
HG: I'd say yes, the shaft should be pointed at the baseline. But, I would pay close attention to the path of the Sweet Spot.
This is Louis Brown. He won on the Australian Tour and played professionally for many years. He won the GA State AM. He was an All-American at the University of GA. He's a GA Open and Atlanta Open Champion. I know of two 62's that he shot, and I think there may have been one more. He set or tied the course record at Wade Hampton in Cashiers, NC last year (64 if I recall correctly).
He told me one time that if I could putt for him, he could shoot 59. I think putting was the only thing that kept him from breaking through.
Considering all these things, how far do you go with a stroke if the ball striking is laser-like?
I would personally recommend spending hours on the putting green.
I agree with you, Ted. If he's that good a ballstriker, I'd say only a very small amount of fine tuning with the full swing, as needed, if you do anything at all. Get that putter going. With those kinds of numbers in his bag, you know that flat stick consistency is the key to him going wherever he wants to go with his game.

But dont you wonder what might happen if you got his Right Forearm on Plane at Address? And got his Sweetspot on Plane in Backswing? His Impact alignments are great but but but..........there must be some advantage to fine tuning things? It wouldnt take too long to do would it? Or are you afraid of messing with perfection?
Hit the putting green for sure. Given his swing, putting probably accounts for about half of his score. Is he interested in the Seniors Tour? Love his swing.

What I found most interesting was his ability to keep the Sweet Spot ON Plane for so long. I recorded a video lesson for him, and the Sweet Spot travel was as good as you can imagine.
He has changed professions, so he got his amateur status back. I'm not sure if he's going to play in any professional tournaments in the future. But, he loves to play. So, nothing would surprise me.
