Regardless of his plane of motion and the camera angle there should be a symmetry around the drawn plane line before and after low point. If he were swinging on a flat plane, that is. His sweet spot is clearly inside of the drawn line towards impact. Yet he stays on the line past impact. If he were moving the sweeet spot on a flat plane he should be moving outside the line past impact.
Hey Bernt I dont know how to draw the plane line over top of the dots.....maybe Luke or D can.
But when I hold a pencil up to where Luke drew the plane line in this picture below I see the dots on the far side, post impact, emerging above the plane line but seemingly way closer to the plane line. If you know what I mean. Anyways Im thinking it could be perspective, illusionary. What do you think?
If you take a CD and draw a straight line down its center , 12 to 6 o'clock on the dial and then turn it to an oblique angle similar to Mr. Strickers sweetspot plane of motion ......would not the far side of the cd look closer to the center line than the near side?
Just wondering ....... Either that or he bent his Sweetspot plane of motion , bent the CD down the middle.
Well now I don't feel so bad about being under plane with shoulders closed with not much of a divot.
Is SS an Elbow Plane guy? Is the Plane determined by the # 3 PP location as it travels? Would that then make hip an almost TSP ?

I just look at impact. Nicklaus came down the TSP but at the very end made a shift to an elbow plane impact.
But remember, guys, the Elbow Plane is not an absolute. Some Angles are steeper than others, especially through Impact (versus Address).
These steeper-than-normal Elbow Planes can approach the TSP Angle and, in fact, remain on it. In which case, there has been Zero Shift from the Top. One example is Brian Gay.

I see the same as you. He seems to be on the plane that Mr Skywalker drew after impact and inside before. I can't understand how this is possible withoug some plane bending going on.
