Horizontal Hinging

[Daryl]

The Following needs some critical evaluation.

True, False, Why? Yes, No, it depends, Right, Wrong, etc.

With Horizontal Hinging, the Left Wrist is Perpendicular to the Horizontal Plane / Vertical to the Ground at Low-Point, AND fully Uncocked. Because the Left Wrist is Uncocked by CF, the Right Wrist is also Uncocked at Low-Point.

With Hitting Patterns, when does the Left Wrist become Fully Uncocked? The Right Wrist?

Since no one is going to answer my question I will delete it!

What do mean by "uncocked" for the right hand? Vertical or horizontal motion? I think that the left wrist can uncock with the right hand keeping its same degree of bend, horizontally. Is this what you are referring to?

Yes.

If CF Uncocks the Left Wrist, then the Right Wrist Uncocks too.

When the Straightening of the Right Elbow Uncocks the Left Wrist, the Right Wrist can remain Bent and Level. When does the Right Wrist Uncock for the "Hitter"? When does the Left Wrist become fully Uncocked?

Im thinking the left wrist is on its way from level to fully uncocked post impact but not getting there until both arms straight. Way past low point. The right wrist at impact is level and shows its impact fix degree of bend (established and frozen by the hitter, or measured at fix and established dynamically during startup by the swinger using a swing back method). The degree of bend at fix is dependent on the shot at hand, ball position, shaft lean etc.

For Horizontal Hinging Im thinking that Both Arms Straight is more literal than for say Vertical or Angled where the right wrist would still show its Fix amount of bend. Clubhead travel being Hinge dependent. As a side bar its this characteristic of Angled Hinging and its associated travel that I think anyways, relates to the "swinging left" craze thats rocking the nation.

As to the right wrist going from level to otherwise. I dont try to do it. That would be a Haneyesque right hand throw would it not?

Are we in the Lab? Hope so, otherwise who are all these guys in white coats surrounding me right now?

Does Plane angle, such as Elbow vs. Turned Shoulder affect this?

Would an Elbow Plane have a Less uncocked Left Wrist than a Turned Shoulder Plane at Low Point?
