[O.B.Left]

GrantC79,

You now have the correct conception.

And, you are monitoring that conception as you should . . . and must.

Here's a helpful drill:

Without a club, but with a ball located on the Target Line, and as normal, between your feet, take a ball in your right hand and position it within the 'question mark' of your 'trigger' finger (#3 Pressure Point) and thumb. Now, simply take that right hand forefinger (and its contents) to your right shoulder and AIM it toward the ball. THAT is the position -- I prefer the word 'alignment' -- you seek.

Now, at the considerable risk of threadjacking -- -- let me add:

Simply complete the motion: Throw the ball DIRECTLY at AND THROUGH the ball on the ground. Make sure you continue this Straight Line Motion UNTIL YOUR RIGHT ARM IS STRAIGHT (end of the DOWN PLANE Follow-Through).

It is toward this end in the Golf Stroke that your THRUST must be directed (both arms straight, left and right). Despite the incidental 'up and in' of the Clubhead orbit after Low Point (opposite the Left Shoulder), there is NO UPSTROKE until the Right Forearm Drive (toward the Base Line of the Plane) has been accomplished.

No swinging 'toward the target'.

No swinging 'level' or 'up'.

Only swinging Down Plane.

DOWN PLANE.

From the Top . . .

Through Start Down . . .

Downstroke . . .

Release . . .

Impact . . .

And Follow-Through.

DOWN PLANE.

Down Plane to Full Extension (of Left Arm and Club).

Absolutely, the Left Side must function, particularly the Pivot (Power Package Acceleration and Delivery); the Left Arm (Checkrein Acton on the right arm); and the Left Wrist (Uncocking, Swivel and Hinge Actions). But, within the mechanism, this is the right-sided Strike of the Champions. With purpose and intent . . .

It can be yours.

Thanks for the Hall of Fame post Yoda. I saw a photo of a guy doing something like that once. Maybe not exactly that but pretty close and with a nice question mark too at the #3. He looked like he could play some.
