For me, I'm just trying to learn everything I can about this game (I'm stll a newbie and I at least want to know what people are talking about when they use all this terminology). I am learning to glean out what seems to work for me and leave the rest.

What I found most interesting about this article is that it suggests that if I am standing more erect but have a wide stance and a "strong" grip - as opposed to a neutral grip- I am mixing my setup for two "very different" swings.

If this is true, then when we talk about setup and swing mechanics - and give advice on same - how can we do so without first definning which swing we are talking about? Would somebody out there care to explain this to me . Because it seems to me that much advice is given without first considering what type of swing is being employed.

Now some, I know, employ neither a one or two plane swing. Some golfers I have observed appear to have a three or more plane swing .
