Danny,

Ted is using the Angle of Approach procedure with its steep Plane (2-J-3-B) and you are using the geometric Plane Line (the straightline baseline of the Turned Shoulder Plane). Therefore, his Angled Hinging appears to Fan less than yours -- Angled Hinging on a steep Plane approaches Vertical Hinging -- even though you are both using the same procedure.

Also, he hits the Ball very hard, and the Ball stays on the Clubface longer. Therefore, the Slice producing characteristic of Angled Hinging is greater than normal, and to compensate, he must Close the Clubface more than normal.

You're on the right track, Danny. Stay with it.

Well YOda I love the site and I am really working hard indoors until golf season to improve my game, using video each time ot to see my feels so to speak to turn my mechanics into feel. Unfortunately it seems whatever I do leads to a shut cross the line position at the top. I see here you are talking about a fanning movement in the backswing whereas Ted is taking it back shut and not allowing this fanning to occur. I am sure bothare acceptable variants even in hitting, but is there a way to know whihc one is better for me to try to emulate? Also any ideas how to correctly incorporate the fanning movement without bringin the club too inside going back?

Would love to hear from you!
