I know Homer's only referring to the True Swinger in my above quote from 7-2. Should have made that more clear in my question. I am actually thinking about the True Swinger, only. Should he use Grip rotation to get that degree of openness required by the selected Hinge Action and Club length (per 2-J-1)? Isn't that somewhat mixing Grip rotation with Plane Line rotation?
Or should he get the required amount of open Clubface by placing the ball further back? (But with Horizontal Hinging, which per 2-J-1 requires a more open Clubface for the longer clubs, that would mean playing the ball from further back with the longer clubs, which seems counterintuitive, no?)
Asked in a more general way:
Can a player who uses Plane Line rotation to produce fades and draws use Grip rotation to get the Impact alignments prescribed by 2-J-1 for the selected Hinge Action?
And can a Hands Manipulated Swinger still use Plane Line Rotation to play fades and draws?
Throwout Aligns the Clubface for Horizontal Hinging, Closing Only Clubface through the Impact Interval. Longer clubs have longer Impact Intervals, normally, so the ball is moved along a greater distance before Separation. At Separation the Clubface is Aligned to the Target Line. At Impact it's Aligned to the Angle of Approach. That's the Perfect World. Compress, Sustain, Separate.
True Swingers always have the Clubface Aligned to the Target Line at Separation.
Hands Manipulated Swingers and Hitters always have the Clubface Aligned to the Angle of Approach at Impact.
