Yes the left wrist rolls while staying aligned in a perpendicular to the Horizontal plane manner. While fighting the physics of hitting, it can be done. Easier to do with Punch Elbow than Push. Is this switting? I dunno but I do recommend learning to Hit and Swing in Basic and Acquired, your machine will love it.
Assuming one accumulator, Hitting chipping, with the right elbow in a Punch position say, Horizontal Hinging is clearly fighting the physics of the right arm thrust as the perpendicular to the horizontal plane (the ground) roll of the left hand requires the right elbow to move from a more Pitch like to Punch or Push position. In other words the left hand has to move the right elbow around in swinger like fashion, an over riding of the Hitters simple pure right arm thrust.
It will provide more roll to a chip shot but approach swinging, I suppose. You could also argue that the Hitter could accomplish much the same sort of shot with out fighting the physics of hitting by; de lofting the clubface at address (ball further back in stance), pointing the plane line to the right (an in to out, hook stroke), merely hitting the chip a little harder or simply taking less club.
This sort of thing is great to practice in Basic and Acquired and translates directly into the longer shots. Yoda would probably say something like: "Control the left wrist and you control the ball. Control the ball and you control the game."
Good luck next week at the Open. I can only imagine how much fun you guys are having in the home of golf. Please make it the home of G.O.L.F. next week.
