I think Yoda would also agree with the above -- that the Angle of Approach procedure is usually excluded for the Swinger.

The nature of the Hitter's Right Arm Thrust drives the clubhead in more of a linear fashion out towards right field. Swinger's do not have this tendency, hence they don't use Angle of Approach.

To basically open up a can of worms, wouldn't the Tomasello stroke (notice neither hit nor swing ) be able to use the Angle of Approach, because he adds right forearm thrust?
