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.
Thanks for the Ben Hogan photos, O.B. Here, Hogan is demonstrating his concept of the right arm action being similar to that of a baseball infielder throwing sidearm to another base. They were the basis of the famed Anthony Ravielli drawings in Five Lessons.
My only objection to the concept is that the 'ball' (Lag Pressure Thrust) in my recommended drill is not thrown toward some distant target. Instead, it is thrown at and through an Aiming Point (typically the ball) on the ground. That Down Plane Thrust (through the Aiming Point) continues until the right arm is straight.
Hogan's demonstration of the leading right elbow and the straightening right arm is valuable. Had he also demonstrated the correct direction of the thrust, it would have been even more so.

Yes , your "Dowels and Wedges" video is much more precise, for sure. Precision alignments were Homer's gift to golf after all.
