I would like to know if the divot direction is different for a hitter (relative to a swinger)?
Here is a diagram showing the clubface orientation in a swinger's action.
Pre-impact the clubface is closing due to the release swivel action and post-impact the clubface continues to close due to a horizontal hinging action.
I therefore imagine the divot of a swinger being straight or slightly left-of-straight (especially the part of the divot beyond the low point).
What about a hitter who uses a crossline thrust action through impact? Is the crossline thrust action accompanying the release of PA#1 a "feeling" only or does it translate into a divot that is oriented to the right-of-straight?
