Lynn's foot print in TGM.
The best thing I discovered about the TT tapes (thanks to Dr. Annikan) is how wonderful, in either pattern, it is to straighten that right arm via the unfolding elbow. That unfolding action makes sure the hands still trace the plane line to its aiming point/adjusted hands position. Once the right arm is straight the role of the arms is complete and the hand swivel and pivot finishes the stroke.
Lots to learn from the TT vids.

I agree. But I still find more to absorb(as a hitter) in the Doyle videos. And I am in no way barrel-chested!
