Hitters clubface at top

[bobbyj]

Would starting a swing stroke from impact fix promote angled hinging and therefore a fade? I am reasonbly new to TGM (but feel I am making good progress) and have found it easier to program my impact alignments by starting the backswing from impact fix. Could this be causing my unexpected fade? Should I move to a 10-9-A and 10-18-A to promote a horizontal hinge for swinging?

I would like to thank everybody (especially Yoda) for helping to 'pad out' the Little Yellow Book. It is great to know that my search has ended but my quest has only just begun....

Starting at impact fix gives you structure and rigidity. When I found in the book where Homer said it was useful for hitting, I put it in my pattern. I wouldn't recommend it for swinging, beacause you won't be in a position to drag the club back. You'll be in a position to carry it back. The drive out of the right arm is what causes angled hinging, not setting up in impact alignments. We all welcome you to the quest.
