Martee...

Keep in mind that in angled hinging the clubface is staying open to the plane...versus horizontal in which it is constantly closing. So...in angled, the motion has no true center.

Not sure about the 'compensation' per se...but it may be this. To offset the layback requires that the clubface be closed at fix to offset the slice inducing tendency.

Horizontal hinging has no such tendency because the face is constantly closing in relation to the inclined plane.

Hope this helps.
