But in regards to your point, there are actually 2 spine angles, this doesn't get discussed much. If you look DTL, you think it's a forward leaning angle. If you look face on then you see it as backwards leaning. The reality is that it's both, and this has huge ramifications on how we accelerate and attack the golf ball. It's a fascinating discussion imo.

Bowing to the 4:30 line... Lag has talked much about this orientation and uses it as a (more comfortable) option of creating axis tilt.

More comfortable than what if I can ask?

If you grip the club you will create axis tilt automatically in the backswing, by virtue of the right hand being lower on the club...
The longer the club, the more tilt you will see, right?

More comfortable (for some) than just tilting to the right from a standing/erect position, or sliding the lower body towards the target at transition a-la stack and tilt, or any other means. There are many ways and different times that you can achieve axis tilt. Yes, you get some of this by just gripping the club but you need to add more at some point in the swing. For ABS students, I believe this is discussed in the M1 supplementary vid.

makes sense, thanks.

Couldn't help but notice the "V" on the soccer ball....and the deja vu implication to Hogan. RR

Great stuff (as usual) BOM,
The foot being the club... (or the club head?!)
This could be the football equivalent of a nice (power)fade:

Good stuff, IOZ, it's always interesting to see how a ball is treated to make it move the way we want it to...

What's this got in common with a golfer?

Hitting a white ball across a green surface with a wooden stick sounds familiar.
