Exactly what hindge should be used or preferred for a hitter

thanks for any input and explanation

Part of the advantage of being a hitter is that you can use all three, depending on the shot you want to hit.

horizontal - a low draw running punch (the escape from the trees)
angled - full shots, the best choice for most shots
verticle - the 'stinger', or a lob/flop - Think Trevino, a block fade
