The Clubshaft Plane And Shot Shaping

With studying the Address or Letter Lesson A we have to include shaping
your golf shot. I own a copy of the Shell's Wonderful World Of Golf match
between Ben Hogan and Sam Snead and have analyzed Mr. Hogan's swing
using CSwing software.

There were two tees shots that had the same alignments to use for comparison.
One was a tee shot that Mr. Hogan faded off a fairway bunker and another one
that he hit a draw. It was exciting because the camera was set in virtually the

same place behind him and I could do a side by side comparison of his driver
swing.

What I saw was that on the fade he came back down underneath his right
elbow/clubshaft plane that he established at his address and the draw was that
he returned the clubshaft a little above what he established at his address.
