I read jack nicklaus's golf my way. In the chapter about planes, he does mention that he like to keep the takeaway plane and the impact plane to be as close as possible. However he says that the backswing and forwardswing ARC is diffenent . So maybe I'll apologize to the one planers. My point is that the impact swing is different than the takeaway swing either buy plane arc or both.

@jennaethan Yes; of course; you will see that the width of the arc in the takeaway is much wider than in the downswing leading into the ball as you are supposed to be swinging towards the target which gives you that lag; this is why those PVC plane guides and the explanar units are not such a great idea...

I'm following up from the feedback from training aids 2. I haven't got a weighted club yet, but when I'm swinging the club back and forth it feels pretty good but my on my follow through my wrists flip the club up a little- you don't do that. And I think hitting the ball effortlessly and cleanly but with a hilarious slice - I can almost feel my hands keeping the club face open but I can't seems to change it! Any feedback is greatly appreciated... Thanks!

@molsondrive1970 You will see in the 2 videos I write down here that the most efficient way to hit a golf ball WHEN THE BALL IS YOUR TARGET; is over the top; you need to polish 2 things: The feel of the action to target which is the release of the shot and your focus staying on where you want to start the ball. See "ridiculously easy part 1 and 2; shawn clement" and "Over the top in Abu Dhabi; shawn clement"...another good one is "How to focus part 1 and 2; shawn clement"

Great videos. Really loved them and just ordered your DVD. One problem I have right now is that I tends to hit the ball at the heels of the club face, even after I address the ball using this method. What would be my problem here? Or should I just address the ball at the toe of club face?

@tshoey22 wouldn't long arms make a 2 plane swing more likely.Look at the odd shape of moe norman.His legs were equal to his trunk and he had short arms.Even then he still had to modify his grip and stick his arm out unnaturally in order to achieve the one plane swing.

@molsondrive1970 you are coming over the top of it. Your right elbow is flying away from your body. Take it back less inside, and don't come over the top

[tshoey22]

@48lester hogan was a shorter slim person with long arms..therefore a flatter plane was worked well for his build...like shawn says' every club is swung on a different plane" the driver is a flatter plane and the wedges more upright you should never try to groove a certain plane for all clubs.( ala Jim hardy's thoery of a one plane or two plane swing)...just give into gravity and don't worry so much about what plane your on...

@MicrowavedHamster

You want to feel that the arm club unit is getting pulled away from the body towards the target; see "golf pro lesson set up with all clubs" and "golf pro lesson get amazing rhythm" and "golf pro lesson tilted twirl"; Shawn

@clemshaw Dear Shawn, you said that the hands cannot be in the same place. This makes sense to me, but should the setup get my hands in that specific position, or should I feel that I'm "pushing" my hands away from my body with lets say a driver?

[jennaethan]

I read through Hogan's five fundamentals and I he had TWO planes. The forward plane which I'll call the impact plane was a bit flatter then his backswing plane which I'll call his takeaway plane. I may have look like it was one plane. But Hogan wrote in his book that it was distinctly different. I say this because I think it is more difficult anatomically and timing/tempo wise to have exactly one plane.
