Interesting , with a true hitting motion, I have to have the face somewhat closed, or I'll lose the ball a bit right. I have a tendency to want to verticle hinge with the left hand, so I need a strong grip and slightly closed face.

I think the strong grip may cause you to vertical hinge. When I first went to see Ted, that's the problem I had and we immediately changed my grip. Essentially the grip was so strong that I had a very shut face in the backswing and the only way to square it up was to use a hinge action that bordered on vertical hinging.
Interesting, I've weakened the grip a bit and added, just a touch of left roll to open the face a bit on the back swing and then turn the right forearm on the downswing and I'm getting a little bit straighter ball flight.
