Someday, It'll be this easy, I HOPE!
Throw out or Drive out?

Yes, mb6606.
When Swinging, I use Horizontal Hinge Action (Flat Left Wrist remains Vertical to the Horizontal Plane through Impact); and when Hitting, I use Angled Hinge Action (Left Wrist remains Vertical to the Inclined Plane through Impact). In the beginning, I trained myself to execute each Hinge Action (2-G) perfectly. First without a Club; then with a Club but without a Ball; and finally, with a Ball, at first in Short Shots, and later, in Full Shots.
I was always a Swinger until I consciously learned to Hit. As a consequence, I had the Swinger's Backstroke with its Start Up Swivel and its End Top; and its Downstroke characterized by Drag Loading, Sequenced Release and Horizontal Hinge Action. When learning to Hit, I had to substitute the approriate Variations:
1. For Standard Wrist Action (with its Start Up Swivel): Angled Hinge Action (10-18-C-2).
2. For an End Top: Straight Line (10-23-A).
3. For Drag Loading: Drive Loading (10-19-A).
4. For Sequenced Release: Simultaneous Release (4-D-0).
5. For Horizontal Hinge Action: Angled Hinge Action (10-10-C).
But today, after assimilating these necessary Mechanical differences, I simply tell my Hands that, on this particular Stroke, we are going to Throw-Out (Left Side Centrifugal Force Drives). Or, on that particular Stroke, we are going to Drive-Out (Right Side Muscular Thrust Drives). Those instructions delivered, the Computer does the rest: The Stroke becomes the automatic execution of a procedure (Chapter 14) in compliance with the Basic Stroke Pattern of either 12-1-0 or 12-2-0 (as modified for the Shot at hand).
We are indeed "fearfully and wonderfully made."

I had better bring several pairs of gloves to Cuscowilla in April, and have hit 1000 balls a week starting the middle of March to prepare!
