If a player has a turned left hand, that will affect the face at your checkpoint. The face will ALWAYS point at the Plane Line as described in the book 45/along/across if you are Hinging . . . but the amount of Roll (less) must be different with a Turned Left Hand inorder to comply with the Law of the Flail (Shaft in-line with the Left Arm). Also, since there is Wrist Cock and Wrist Bend necessary to keep the Shaft in-line with the Left Arm at Top . . . there is also NECESSARILY Cock AND BEND inorder to "re-plane" the club after both arms straight. HERE'S YOUR COCK AND BEND AT TOP (END) VERTICAL HINGING ANGLED HORIZONTAL HERE'S YOUR COCK AND BEND TO REPLANE IT AND COMPLY WITH LAW OF THE FLAIL COCKED AND BENT AT FINISH Try this'un out . . . hold your club infront of you on a Horizontal Plane with a 10-2-B grip. Now move the club downplane (follow-through) to about 45 degrees. Now drop it down on the Inclined Plane . . . LOOK LOOK LOOK at your hand. Next do the same procedure but this time start with a TURNED LEFT HAND . . . Drop it down and look at the differences. With the 10-2-D grip the back of the left hand still faces up. My feeling with a 10-2-D grip and Horizontal Hinging is that the heel pad (or butt mmmmm huh huh) stays vertical to the ground. Something has to stay vertical to the otherwise there ain't no Horizontal Hinging . . . it can be done with 10-2-D you just have to figure out what to Monitor. You can do this same procedure with Vertical Hinging. Hinging is Hinging is Hinging is Hinging . . . it don't care about your shoes . . . it don't care about your stankazz breath . . . it don't care about your dirty draws. . . it don't care about your GRIP . . . it just moves about a Hinge Pin Vertical to one of the Basic Planes. Some part of your wrist must reproduce the Hinge Action of a door basically. So you can control your hands control the club control the ball and control the game. Take your 10-2-D grip out to the green and learn it with chip shots. Look Look Look at what your wrist must do inorder to produce the proper Clubface motion (closing only, closing with layback or layback only). __________________ Aloha Mr. Hand Behold my hands; reach hither thy hand Last edited by 12 piece bucket : 08-03-2007 at 08:19 AM. 12 piece bucket View Public Profile Send a private message to 12 piece bucket Find all posts by 12 piece bucket
