The "swinging or releasing left" thing is so horribly named it makes it hard to discuss without thinking of a cross line swing path or left alignment.

Im just wondering if these various "releases" are simply different hinge actions? A held off 7 iron is really just angled hinging? A down the line full release with a driver is horizontal hinging , plane and simple. A Trevino like cut off , held off wedge shot is angled hinging with a lot of lag pressure and a brisk pace. Not sure if hitting and swinging would make a difference beyond their normal associated hinge action.

Great questions OB. I think you and I are stuck in the same place. Hopefully one of the big guns will help us out with this...
