Ps Arnold Palmer and Tommy gainey probably two of the most incredible motions ever to be seen on the PGA tour highly underrated. I thought toms was a hitter who went on to end.
I got the 4th in my office...so I'm not sure if the patterns have changed based on whatever edition you may reference as far as the patterns in chapter 12....BUT....my assumption would be based on the patterns....the plane line is square square....the handpath is therefore more "straight away" for both patterns...I think delayed works better with the less depth in the geomeotric plane line delivery as opposed to an angle of approach delivery....angle of approach delivery is VERY DIFFRENT (and in my mind superior for Hitting) than a geometric plane line delivery....problem: Homer didn't leave us with a component list for an angle of approach procedure...it would certainly be interesting for somebody (maybe a certain tiny green somebody) to develop that listing....I think the components would necessarily be different...it would be an instructive undertaking for sure...

not sure if that answers your questions...BUT...remember Homer was very much not in favor of RECOMMENDING ANYTHING....so I imagine it was difficult for him to be "pigeon holed" into being restricted to the patterns in chapter 12.
