Dear Yoda, I went out to the range today and tried my version of "hitting" with a frozen right wrist. The crossline delivery path of the hands is easier with a more rigid right forearm flying wedge. I also tried pushing the handle back with the right thumb pressure. It seems more structurally sound. Should the #3ppt push on the back of the handle on the downswing, without any rotation, in a straight line path to the aiming point if one is using angled hinging?

Yes. Regardless of the Hinge Action employed, Clubhead Force and Motion is alwaysOn Plane at right angles to the Sweetspot (1-L #10 and #11) and also to theClubshaft (7-11). At the Top, Hitters Drive Load (10-19-A) the Clubhead LagPressure with the No. 3 Pressure Point at right angles to the Aft sideof the Shaft and that Loading is maintained through Impact.

Swingers, on the other hand, Drag Load (10-19-C) the Lag Pressure at rightangles to the Top of the Shaft. That Loading is maintained at least intoRelease, at which time the Swivel may or may not cause it to return to theAft side of the Shaft (10-11-0-3). If it does not, the Swinger who beganwith a Strong Single Action Grip (10-2-B) has now changed to a Weak SingleAction (10-2-A).
