hitting vs swinging
Having worked and studied the hiting concept in general there is truth that the fade is usually the ball flight unless compensations are introduced and it takes a bit of more musular effort with good technique to hit the ball long. The angle hinging action for hitters is most compatible versus horizontal hinging is compatible with swinging. As stated in a previous post Yoda and Yodasluke are masters in the art of hitting and if you plan to use hitting you should get lessons or study the various forums to understand the difference in technique. For example the hitter does not use a start up swivel and keeps the clubface facing the ball as long as possible on the backswing. If you really get a chance get down to the swamp and book a lesson with yodasluke. He is great and he can quickly determine if you are suited to hitting.

Also he talked about the ball flight was a fade from what I have read on this forum about hitting the ball flight is straight. Did he not use any kind of swivel at the end for the hits?
