Daryl,

Thanks for your response, which does help, but I still have a quandary of sorts, and not an unusual one.

You say: "The Address position for a swinger is the same for all clubs. The Hands are centered which causes the Left Wrist to be bent and the right wrist to be flat.....If you decide to cross over to the Dark Side (Become a Hitter ), then the precise amount of Right Wrist bend will be determined by ball location and will remained fixed at that degree of Bend throughout the Swing. Ball more forward, less bend, farther Back in your Stance then more right wrist Bend. It's not a lot, but it will vary enough to make a difference in Ball Striking."

In that sense, I am not a swinger, because of the characteristics named above, I do more [e.g., flat left wrist always, shaft leaning always, hands centered never] that is "hitter" than "swinger." Yet I have a hard time classifying myself as a hitter. Among other things, my swing is longish and fluid, very flat on the bottom, and even a full sand wedge from the fairway usually doesn't disturb the roots of the grass. But I DO have the "Extensor Action Take-Away and Right Forearm Fanning with a stationary Right Elbow."

Aside from terminology, or my being a hopeless hodgepodge of swing elements, can I effectively combine a varying [if also appropriate] degree of fixed-throughout-the-swing right wrist angle with the swinger elements of extensor takeaway, fanned right forearm, and fixed right elbow? Or would that be making a mess of things? -- JC
