I practiced what "felt" right based on my previous on course experience with the OPS and ended up with a plane line bent about 45 degrees to the left. Of course, I taught myself the OPS so I don't want to denigrate its potential merits since I am not necessarily any kinda expert. To be honest, I am not necessarily a TGM expert either because I have no desire to learn all of the terminology. I simply want to be able to hit the ball with an athletic move using the power in my right arm. Hitting gives me that. Lynn originally taught me this, but I went astray. Plus, I don't believe that I have the expertise to self diagnose all that ails my golf swing when things go astray. Even Tiger has a swing coach that drills the same fundamentals with El Tigre when things are slightly off. I may not be a tour pro, but luckily I live in close proximity to the swamp and have access to Tour Level Instruction!! E.
