What I want to know is, is the relatively flat path of the clubhead at the bottom of the swing  the result of the big forward weight shift that's currently taught. In other words if you swing the club without any forward movement, would the lowpoint area be shorter and more "pointed"( I can't think of another way to describe it)

Secondary axis tilt is a shallowing piece.
