Body driven steep shaft?

There are a few things here.
1. A golfer wants to utilize as much of their body for power as possible, but often overusing one area limits the ability to use another. So we don't mind pulling with the arms as long as it's not so great of a pull that it disrupts the arm, leg, or wrists ability to add power.
2. Steep vs shallow is less of an angle and more of a motion. For example, I use Fred Couples in this video because he has a pronounced swallowing movement, even if the shaft angle is more steep than some. https://www.golfsmartacademy.com/golf-instruction/shallow-position-vs-shallow-movement/
3. The purpose of the swallowing movements is to help control the club face and low point at the bottom of the swing. If those tasks are within range at the bottom, then I'm fine with the match up. But if a golfer struggles with a certain miss, like a contact or direction issue, then we want to look at the big influences to that pattern.

Hope that helps,

Wow, man.

I confess I thought I might get you there, like a kid waiting to scare his parent at the front door while his parent, easily detecting the clumsy ambush, comes in the back door and surprises him instead.

You REALLY get it, in a way I’m not sure anybody else ever has.

I’m again grateful for your time… and your patience.

Namaste,
Zach
