So...

we have established that both 10-18-C #1 and 10-18-C #2 arrive at the Top On Plane.

The difference between 10-18-A and 10-18-C#1 at the Top is more a matter of how it got there rather than the actual alignments at the Top.

But since the motion of the wrists is different between 10-18-C #1 and 10-18-C #2, and yet they both arrive On Plane, then there must be something different in the rest of the body to make sure it's On Plane.

The Top Location is reached when the Hands are at Shoulder Height. The End Location is Higher but more important, it is farther around.

Please forgive my boldness. 10-18-C #1 and 10-18-C #2 arrive at Top, On Plane, with a Flat Left Wrist. The Left Hand, Clubface Alignment, and Clubshaft are Identical. The Right Hands are also identical for a Swinger and Hitter and if Both used 10-2-B Grip, then both will Angle Hinge. Please Reference the First Edition. This edition includes referencing Hands To Plane with Left Wrist Action and HK advises accordingly. I’m almost sure that he removed the “advice” comments from later editions because he wanted TGM to reflect a “Properties” of Golf Stroke and not a Dear Abby advice book.

The Left Wrist for Swingers using 10-18-C #1 will be Flat and Cocked. The Right Wrist will be Bent and Level. The Right Wrist for Swingers using 10-18-C #1 will be Bent and Level but the Right Wrist in 10-18-A will be Turned-Turned, Flat and Level. Swingers using 10-18-C #1 will Angle Hinge and Swingers using 10-18-A will Horizontal Hinge. Swingers using 10-18-C #1 should use 10-2-E, V/T/U [which will allow the Left Wrist to Cock on Plane (without Bending) and allow the use of Pitch 10-3-B] if they want to Horizontal Hinge.

10-18-A and 10-18-C #1 at Top are different. The Left Wrist in 10-18-A is Turned-Turned, Cocked and Bent and the Right Wrist is Turned-Turned, Level and Flat. At Top, The Right Palm in 10-18-A (if you open your fingers) is almost facing your head. At End, the Right Hand Alignment of 10-18-A is like 10-18-C #1 is at Top if 10-18-C #1 uses 10-2-E.

If you open your Right Palm at the End of 10-18-A, it will face front. If you open your Right Hand Palm at Top of 10-18-C#1 with 10-2-B it will face front. If you open your Right Palm at Top with 10-18-A with 10-2-B it will almost face your head.
