After working on FINISHING SWIVEL and tweaking from vertical to ANGLED HINGING, and employing a slightly flatter downswing plane...
That 160-yard 5-iron chip became a 185 YARD LAZER BEAM that stuck the green and set up a birdie putt!! Granted, I got all of that one...but I expect more of the same.
How sweet it is! Thanks Yoda for the suggestions.

You more than likely got those extra yards from the better compression of the angled hinge.

Jim,
No doubt, Angled Hinging results in less Clubface Layback (and hence more distance) than does Vertical Hinging. But, that is not the whole story here.
Try this little experiement:
Hit two full shots with a five-iron using Angled Hinging. On the first, stop at the end of the Follow-Through. On the second, complete the Stroke with a Finish Swivel. Determine for yourself which Stroke yielded the greater distance and report back. Thanks!

Yoda I know I don't post much on your site. Sorry for that. However this is a great subject. Keep it up! What does this do for your camp when it has a round house effect? I am fully a hitter and it would seem my swivel is full when my left arm is level to the ground.
