Thoughts?

On Plane is not a great term in my opinion. There hasn't really been a correct definition of what the right plane is. Is it the space between the elbow and the shoulder to the ball?

Ihaven't thought about swing plane in a long time. I care where clubhead is at, but I just know if it is in a better position at certain times in the swing things go better.

As for the guy demonstrating in the video.

First, the guy needs to take the arch out of his lower back. Not really good posture there.

Second, I think parallel at A2 would matter more if the turn rates are synced well.

Third, at A3 his back leg hasn't extended enough, he's basically maintained all the flex in that back knee.

I like this video. They are appropriately flexible about the positions, and while the guy's swing may not be your ideal, they're answering a specific question ("Where should you be at A2 and A3?") in an understandable way.

I basically agree with most of what they said. The best part is at the end where the guy wants to get into a good A2 and knows he tends to get a little in so he makes a swing where he feels more Rickie Fowler (or old Rickie Fowler). I think most of us have a general idea of where we want to be, the "secret" is knowing HOW to do achieve it and what piece to prioritize. Kind of like the example we use for Key #1, steady head isn't a swing thought.
