12 Piece's Response and I'm in danger of being confused:





So, I can go cross plane or parallel plane as a Swinger using the Right Fore Arm Angle of Approach. This is why Hogan bent his plane line, I think.

So how does a swinger get to hit the ball better, farther, where desired more often?

Quote:
2-K GENERATION OF ANGULAR MOTION Angular Motion is the result of at least two divergent forces. Such as, -A. Centripetal Force (the Lever Assemblies 6-A) diverting Linear Force (Right Arm Thrust 6-B-1) into a rotating motion (Hitting 10-19-A). Or – B. Turning its axis (the Body 2-M-4) to spin a flywheel – the Lever Assemblies (Swinging 10-19-C).

Rotation induces a Throw-Out action, pulling the centers of gravity of every movable component, In-Line and On Plane with its axis or center, whether or not they were originally In-Line or On Plane. With a short radius it can accelerate easily, and quickly acquire considerable Angular Velocity. If a portion of this mass moves to a longer radius, the slowing effect (6-C-2-B) must be computed on the basis of the total mass AS LONG AS THE PORTION IS BEING PROPELLED BY THE TOTAL. That is – the slowdown would be in the same ratio that the portion has to the whole – the original central mass. This “Transfer of Momentum” process (10-19-C) eliminates Release Deceleration (6-F-0) but not Impact Deceleration (2-M-1). This Throw-Out action is termed herein as “Centrifugal Acceleration” to indicate that Centrifugal Force (Centrifugal Reaction), not muscle, is propelling the Secondary Lever Assembly (the Golf Club) into Impact. So Swingers are totally dependent on their skill at manipulating Centrifugal Force while Hitters are not. But study 4-D, 6-B-3-0, 6-R-0 and 7-2.

Most of the above concerns "Transfer of Momentum". HK isolates T-O-M from ones "ability to manipulate CF" in order to conceptualize the effects of T-O-M. But T-O-M isn't your primary problem but it is a part of the answer to your question.

Another part of the answer is the proper manipulation of CF.

When you swing the 1/2 shaft (no clubhead?), the Sweet-spot Plane and Swing Plane are one and the same but when you put a club in your hands, they aren't. In your case (like most everyone) the Sweet-spot Plane of your Club, during the Downstroke, is not on the Swing-plane. So, you are pushing or pulling the Clubshaft and not the Sweet-spot, therefore, CF is being avoided and Clubhead speed is mostly a factor of your muscular effort or ability in applying it.

If you want to be a "Closet Hitter", then no problem. Simply learn to use your right triceps muscle. But if you would prefer to remain a swinger, then you'll need to get the Sweet-spot on-plane and allow CF to have its effect.

I'm assuming that you understand the Sweet-spot Plane and how to manipulate it onto the Swing-plane before release. If not, then say so and I'll give you a timely, albeit vapid response (but with pictures ).

More research and range balls needed!
