So the plane of the sweetspot is the turned shoulder plane (in a zero shift, non compensated stroke)? Do any of the PP's travel on this plane during the entire motion?

The answer is 'yes' to both questions.

Matthew, well before you confided in us about being improperly medicated for so long and apologized to the forum for your past behavior and started fresh with a new name change from the old one which got you tossed off many forums for boorish behavior, I defended your right to post as you please- even at while I was attacked for defending you. Whats the matter Matthew, your government holding back your prozac?

My post was just to remind you of your shady past and maybe, just maybe you shouldn't make accusations toward others.

You could never be my neighbor, you couldn't get past the gate. But if you like -- come visit, my friends will get a big laugh.

Ok

Hmmmmm.... what do I say - You got problems

Interesting....

I have also got a question yoda

Once your forearm is on plane and you track the plane line with pp3 in a 3D takeaway, after when the club reaches 1st parallel with the ground could you describe what the power package does and how to continue with tracking and monitoring the plane line since it has run out of line to track, and how can I assure my right forearm is still on the correct plane till 'the top'.

Good question Mathew. I've always believed in the rear shoulder being the primary reference point, but I'm curious how Lynn will answer this.

Matthew:

Not Yoda but here you go...since the clubshaft is a straight line, one end being the clubhead and one being the butt end of the grip, after the club is past the first parallel in the backswing, the butt of the club should now point at the plane line. People always speak of PP#3 tracing the plane line (until the first parallel), after this point, you could jam another flashlight/laser in the butt end of the grip and that light should trace the plane line to the top.

As far as the right forearm goes, it is a bit harder to monitor in full swing after the first parallel, especially since many golfers may shift to a different plane after the first parallel. Although having the right forearm on plane all the way to the top, at initial start down and release may be preferred, Homer made the statement of saying that it is most crucial at start-up (to first parallel) and then again during the release interval. FYI...the release interval is from the first parallel coming down through your second parallel on the follow through.

One last note, Homer also stated that the right forearm will not be back on plane until the elbow returns back to the plane (typically which is during start-up to first paraellel and hopefully back during the release interval).
