PP#3 Where are you?/Downswing Layoff

[cometgolfer]

Something just occurred to me after watching the referenced video again.

Is it possible that a swinger (who doesn't understand the "quarter turn rotation of pp#3" that occurs going to "end") could actually be helping to get the club under-plane at the start of the downswing by trying to feel pp#3"behind" the shaft instead of on the "top" of it? I'm talking of a "Sergio-like" transition move (and one that I've fought for a long long time).

It's as if I want to feel that pressure behind-the-shaft throughout the whole swing. In order to feel it there while at the "end" position I would have to get the clubface pointing skyward, and, unless I was really working to support the weight of the club, it would naturally start falling vertically downward. I'm usually able to get it back on plane nearing impact but I know it's not as efficient as it can be due to the off-plane start down.

I've struggled with fixing this motion and never seem to be able to do it. I contend it's because I don't have a good handle on the root cause. Just wanted to see if anyone thinks the above explanation/reasoning is plausible.

Thanks,
