Thanks for these sequences, hg. There is much to learn here. One comment: Are you sure the top Plane Angle graphic (Frame 8 ) is to the tip of the Turned Right Shoulder? I know the white shirt makes precise identification difficult, but to my eye, the line appears a touch low. Check it out and let us know what you see. Thanks!

Meanwhile . . .

Someone once asked Moe -- it was either Craig Shankland at a PGA of America Coaching and Teaching Summit or Peter Kessler in The Golf Channel segment -- "What do you like best about your swing?"

"My extension," said Moe. "And how well I hit my positions."

• Extension; and
  
• Aligned Positions.

This is The Golfing Machine in a nutshell (see 12-3 / The Mechanical Checklist For All Strokes).

For those so inclined, study 6-B-3-0-1 (Extensor Action); 2-F (Inclined Plane); 2-N-0 (Clubhead Orbit); 7-5 (Plane Line); 2-G and 7-10 (Hinge Action and its Vertical Left Wrist); Release Motions (4-D-0); and Chapter 8 (Twelve Sections of the Stroke).
