Here is a start... but not really sure - just experimenting with my vertical hinge !
> SUPER HIGH THAT COMES DOWN AND STOPS

This is probably along the "cut lob" lines.From my reading this can be categorised as

Ball Position = Low point
Plane line = Open to target
Stance line = Open to target ( ?presume parallel to plane line)
Clubface = Square to target
Hinge Action = vertical

> MEDIUM TRAJECTORY

More lob style ?

Ball position = low point
plane line = square to target
stance line = maybe tiny bit open
clubface = square to target
Hinge action = vertical

> LOW SKIPPER WITH SPIN

More cut ( ie. ball back in stance but open stance?)

Ball position = central
Plane line = Open to target
Stance line = Open to target
Clubface = Square to target
Hinge action = Angled

> LOW RUNNER

This I have played many times... just never when it was really meant to come out running!! My thoughts on the possible variables (ie. ball position, plane or stance line etc) are that vertical Hinge action definitely gives the ball backspin and height and SOFT landing so I think it will be similar to low skipper but with ?horizontal hinge? to get a bit of draw spin? ? hmm not sure - too many variables!!

What influence do each of the following variables have on the shot : Ball position ,plane line ,stance line, clubface,Hinge action ? Please
