Josh is an 8 hdcp who was losing several shots a round with the driver with really bad pushes and hooks. As you can imagine, with a few minutes of RS2 instruction, his position went from not being able to stop on the left until he was super long to now being pointed right down the target line at the top.
 
 
Now, for the payoff. Getting him set right going back he comes down perfectly on plane, not way from the inside like before. This means a ball that starts online and requires no manipulation of the clubface to square through impact. Look how much his club is on top of the ball just before impact rather than way under and from the inside:
 
 
That should take care of about 4 strokes a round right there!

Chuck this is exciting....but you already knew that. Coming to far from the inside and under plane is what Paul has been helping me eliminate. I am not across the line at the top like Josh but the club head looks the same at impact, especially with my driver and 3 wood.

Is Josh's change at impact the result of simply getting him in the right position at the top using RS 2.0?

Correct origin of movement creates the positions

I am sure it is the same answer, but I haven't seen any photos of someone who CAN'T come from the inside (not going to mention any names here ) but can only come OTT.  Much more so with longer clubs. Does someone like me have more work to do?

I'll  bet Josh was able to feel a change in his body position at the top versus just trying to think about how his hands changed, actually I doubt the hands did change. Rotary 2.0 forget about the hand untill the release, right.

secondary, moving correctly during the takeaway and then completing the bswing correctly takes care of the downswing path, you can't come over the top the way I get these guys to the top.

That should be worth the price of admission right there.

Price of admission + airfare + car and I would go twice that if it meant an end to it!  Poor Paul has given me drills to hit from the inside, I am getting ready to quit the game because I can't get there.  This should save from a lifetime of hiking and birdwatching!

Is a cocked left wrist part of RS 2.0 as Josh has in the picture on the right?
 
Sorry if that's a stupid question, I haven't been here for a while and I'm trying to get my head round all this new stuff.
Handicap 18 and stuck there.

After an horrendous season, now up to 19

left wrist would ideally be neutral, or more flat
