One Plane vs. Stack and Tilt

What is the main difference in the One Plane vs. the Stack and Tilt? I have been watching the Shawn Clements videos on YouTube and the one plane seems like a very simple swing. I'm just curious why the Stack and Tilt swing originated? Is the stack and tilt swing supposed to be more consistent or repeatable?

I would also add to this that the description of a "one plane swing" is a swing whereby the player turns their shoulders around a bent-over spine at 90 degrees to the spine and their arms swing around their upper torso onto the same plane as the shoulder turn.

That being the case S&T; is a specific type of one-plane swing.

Although the components can all be used separately it's marketed as a full swing ("The swing that's remaking golf"), hence "The Stack and Tilt Swing" rather than "The Stack and Tilt Components that can be combined if you like or if not you can use them separately"

Also the shoulders on a different plane is a two plane swing, not necessarily a 'wrong' swing.

Hey guys, I actually ran into a S&T; instructor and spoke with him in length about the swing. He looked at my swing and said that I had the best leg transition he had ever seen on the backswing but I was not getting my lead shoulder down enough on the backswing and that I was not coming through properly. He told me a great way to start the downswing but I wanted to run it by you guys,he said to simply straighten my lead leg to start the downswing... How does this sound

PS- I carded a 75 not swinging correctly, so I am excited about the possibilities.

If you litterally do that, then you will hit it right. Drawers of the ball tend to keep there left leg flexed which lets them get there weight forward more at impact. While faders tend to straighten the leg faster causing less weight forward. Given there are other factors, but it can be a factor between those two shots. I never really think about it, if i think about getting my left hip joint forward toward the target and rotate backwards and up, i transition good. I mean specifically, i concentrate on my left hip joint. not the hips on the whole.

But with S&T; your weight is already forward, correct?

Ask Erik that, i believe that in the backswing i would say at least 50% on the front leg, then it goes up from there in the downswing. But doing that in application is a different matter, in theory yes. But still, if you straighten your left leg quicker, even if you get majority of your weight left, you will be more likely to hit it right. They talk about pro's spinning out and they hit it right. I remember one announcer saying that for this one golfer to learn to hit a draw they softened his left leg through impact, this allows him to attack more from the inside more and hit a draw. Thats what that guy's swing instructor told them.

Ok, I'm left handed so it takes me a second to translate since you are obviously standing on the wrong side of the ball! :-)

Here is why I think people really need to seek online lessons or an instructor before trying to do S&T; on there own. The reason for the pushed shot to my left or your right when straightening the lead leg is because the golfer comes up out of the shot when the do that. You must stay down and turn your shoulders on the same path that they returned on. It is possible to straighten that leg without coming out of the shot/swing...

Oh i agree, my leg is straight when i am finished with my swing, but its bent coming in the downswing and into impact. I don't snap my leg like tiger or straighten it as a mental thought
