From what Monte said at least, this just doesn't seem to be true.

We don’t have anywhere near enough information to say it is definitively true or false. That’s why I said I would wager to guess.

His inner Victor Hovland is trying to get out. Victor won Jack's tournament a couple weeks ago and shot 3 under today. Not too shabby. 

 

 

 

Someone needs to show him a still frame of Rory so that he can rebuild this flawed motion to be more planar.

You didn't say you'd wager to guess, you said you'd "bet a large amount of money on.."   

 

One thing I would bet a large amount of money on…. you will not be able to take your current backswing and make any other downswing than you currently do with any level of success.

you have to look at the miss and then discuss possible options to help minimize it. Not just about making a “planar” swing

I see nothing similar to Viktor Hovland here. Just because he makes contact doesn't make it good.

It’s more about swing styles being more or less in common than it is about the op having a perfect golf swing as it is.

I have struggled with this same ATL type swing and have wasted more time and bad scores on trying to fix it then to limit my misses with the current swing. 
 

I agree that fixing the backswing in the long run is the right way, but then will need help on the downswing as you are changing the first half of the swing. I face more of an ATL to steep and across downswing, so we do differ there.

 

I chose to focus on shallowing out the downswing as my focus instead of shortening and/or changing the backswing. I do however try and feel the hands inside and club head outside (backswing) as an earlier video spoke about, and rotating my upper body more as my arms tend to outrage my body. From the top, I try and make sure the hips go first to “naturally” shallow out the arms and feel them drop into my right pocket. Hard to explain without any visuals but I had enough trying to fix a swing that was 10+ years grooved. 
 

May not be the best response but depending on how much time and frustration you want to commit to, maybe find small changes to improve consistency over rebuilding. Just my .02

 

(ignore the awful range 😂)
