Perhaps a demonstration on a horizontal plane will help.

As in swinging a baseball bat, anything hit before low point ( which in this example is when the bat is perpendicular to home plate-second base line) goes out to the right.

Try this drill. Hold your right arm out in front of you at shoulder level, palm facing 'second base'.

Now move your arm back, so your palm is facing about half way between 1st and 2nd base (out to the right)

Without moving your arm, arch your right wrist so that the palm faces second base.

The amount your right arm is moved back is directly related to how much you have to arch your right wrist. In other words, the more out to the right, or 'up plane', the more hook face (arch need to get back to 'square').

The same is true on an angled plane.

Keep in mind, this drill has the arm representing the club's design, we want a bent right wrist in G.O.L.F.!
