Would appreciate clarification on the two approach procedures "Angle of Approach" vs "Arc of Approach" and how to execute them from a swinger's perspective. My understanding:

"Angle of Approach" is the "alternate target line" method, recommended for hitters because it is more compatible with the push/punch action of the right arm powered stroke.

"Arc of Approach" is the "target line tracing" method, recommended for swingers because it is more compatible with the horizontal hinging/rolling action through impact of the swinger.

However, in the Tommy Tomasello videos, there is strong emphasis on "swinging toward right field", which sounds like an "alternate delivery line" method while swinging. I also saw in several videos where Lynn seemed to be using them as interchangable options regardless of stroke type.

Are they really interchangeable? What are the benefits/drawbacks of the two approaches for a swinging stroke?

Stevem,

Your post is evidence of a true understanding of TGM principles coming together. Congratulations!

To your question:

Even for Swingers using the Arc of Approach procedure (best accomplished via On-Line Plane Line Tracing), the Hands' Delivery Path Thrust is Cross-Line, i.e., Down Plane along the Angle of Attack (or the golfer's Visual Equivalent, the 'on the ground' Angle of Approach).

Study Power Package Delivery Path (7-23) and the Right Forearm's Alternate Target Line (7-2-3) as established at Impact Fix.
