Shoulder Turn and Hinge Action Tendency
 

If a player is using a Shoulder Turn that is very close to being a Rotated Shoulder Turn Backswing/Downstroke (but, in reality a 10-13-C/10-13-D combination with a very bent over posture), is there a natural tendency toward Angled Hinging, even with a Swinging procedure?

If it helps to clarify, I'm trying to relate this to Jim Hardy's "One Plane" swing, which is described as being very "rotary."

Armourall,
I don't think so. Since horizontal hinging is "closing only" there is NO layback. Horizontal hinging is horizontal hinging. Angled hinging moves closer to horizontal hinging when executed on a flatter plane and it moves closer to verticle hinging when executed on a steper plane, but if you have no layback (horizontal hinging) then this doesn't apply.

Hardy's "one plane" swing really isn't one plane, but it is a swing. A swinger will tend to me more rotary because the pivot pull is transporting the power, not the right arm thrust.

Jordan,
I seem to remember at least one person talking about the clubface closing more gradually (a no roll feel) with Hardy's "one plane" method. That got me thinking it may be Angled Hinging. But it's been so long, I can't remember who stated that. May have been Roger Gunn. I'll try to track it down.
