At address he doesn't look as if he has the club face closed down either. Any comments from the LBG hitting elite? I wouldn't say I'm elite but... It is very possible to use the Hitter's Angled Hinge and still produce a Draw. Just make sure the Clubface is Closed enough relative to the Clubhead Line of Flight (Clubhead Path) at Impact. It is this divergence that produces sidespin. The Clubface contacts the Ball's outside-aft quadrant and voila -- we have a Draw. However, note that Lag Pressure or Thrust continues to drive the Clubhead through the inside-aft quadrant of the Ball. __________________ tongzilla tongzilla View Public Profile Send a private message to tongzilla Find all posts by tongzilla
