1. Use Angled Hinging for the Right Arm Only Stroke. Feel the On Plane Paddlewheel nature of the Right Forearm action from Release (8-9) to Both Arms Straight (8-11). The is the 'Underhand Pitch, Motion and Feel' (2-N-0) that keeps the Clubshaft On Plane.

2. There is no 'dual' Angled Hinge Action because the one Angled Hinge governs both Clubshaft and Clubface. For all practical purposes, Horizontal and Vertical Hinging will always be 'dual.' That's because you need two hinges: one to control the Clubshaft and another to control the Clubface.

3. In the shorter Non-Pivot Strokes, Swingers should use the Magical Right Forearm Takeaway (7-3) on the Backstroke; then, on the Downstroke, use the Minor Basic Left Arm Pull Stroke (10-3-D) to Pull the Club through Impact. In the longer Strokes -- from the Top -- they should emphasize the Right Shoulder Turn thrust of the #4 Accumulator (6-B-4-0/A/B/C) to 'crank up the gyroscope' of Centrifugal Force.

Hitters -- with or without Shoulder Turn Thrust -- should use the Right Arm Throw (10-20-B) to Trigger the Release, and then use Right Elbow Drive (6-B-1-0/A/B/C) to Push the Club through Impact. If you are more comfortable with this latter action, then use it and learn The Joy of Hitting. A technique that emphasizes Right Arm Power is more 'natural' to most of us, and because of the active sensing of Muscular Thrust -- as opposed to the passive sensing of Centrifugal Force -- it is the best way to learn to use the Right Forefinger #3 Pressure Point. The key to the effective use of the Right Arm is learning to straighten it without Flattening the Bent Right Wrist. Experiment and see which way works best for you.
