Yes. because #2 accumulator is still going down, until both arms streight. longer in front of LP longer arc. Except with zero (or fixed) #3 then balanced divot. (Scoop)

Interesting point about #2 angle........awsome drawing there Daryl. What software do you use?

In regard to clubface implications for Separation prior to Low Point: Let me try this another way.

First read the first paragraph of 2-J-2 INSIDE OUT IMPACT. (Its a great read but for brevity Ill jump ahead to the main point.) "..........Though it is an "inside-out" Impact it is not an "inside-out" Stroke unless the Plane Line crosses the Line Of Flight as depicted in photo 10-5-E. (closed- closed).

Per 2-J-1 and 1-L-17 while the clubface is positioned in accordance with your Hinge Action at Fix (slightly open for Horizontal etc) at Separation the clubface must be square to the Target Line.

Now look at Picture 2-C-1 #3 and turn it upside down for the players perspective. Its not to scale obviously and assumes Separation at Low Point but lets imagine Separation prior to Low Point......Imagine Separation about where Impact is depicted......the clubface now square to the Target Line and THE INSIDE-OUT ANGLE OF APPROACH LIEING AHEAD OF SEPARATION.

Straight shot or draw?
