Slightly off topic from the previous discussion, but related to this clip nonetheless. The two things that stand out for me are that in position 2, the clubshaft seems to be parallel to the plane line, but below parallel to the ground. Is this because the right elbow hasn't started to cock and so there is no wrist cock yet? Also, this is obviously a drill. In the actual motion, would 1 to 2 and 2 to 3 blend into each other slightly more, leading to parallel to the plane line and parallel to the ground?

Secondly, it's interesting on the down-the-line view how Tomasello's left arm moves out from 1 to 2. I think when I've turned my left hand in the past, I've moved the shaft around a fulcrum point (I think that's the term) at the very butt of the club. What I see Tomasello doing is different. The club (shaft) appears to be rotating around pressure point 1, causing the left hand to move out. It's similar to how Hogan describes his waggle in five lessons if I remember that correctly. Is this always how it should be done in TGM terms (rotate aound pp 1)?
