Keeping the clubhead 'outside' the hands until hip high is the key to fixing this.

Edz I was looking for a better definition for 'laid off' than
"Your club is laid off when it is behind your hands at any point in the swing". In your fix for a bad Takeaway you use the term 'Outside the hands' so would
"Your club is laid off when it is inside your hands at any point in the swing" be a better/correct definition?

My defintion of laid off:

At any point in the swing where the sweet spot or the butt end of the club is pointing OUTSIDE the plane line.

That's it.

That's it.

Therefore "Laid off" is an instance of "Off plane" but is
it not possible for the club to be inside/behind the hands and still point at the Plane line?

Of course it is possible for the Clubhead to be inside the Plane Line with the Clubshaft Tracing the Straight Plane Line at the same time.

Thanks Tongzilla. That's what I thought. How would you define "Laid off"?

Same as Jim's definition in post #12 because it's geometrically correct.
