Hinge Pin Location
 

For Dual Horizontal Hinging, does the mounted Hinge pin
stay opposite the left shoulder as the left shoulder
rotates left through and after impact or does the hing pin
stay in the impact location as the left shoulder goes
around?

Hinge Pin is at the Shoulder and moves with the Shoulder.

Daryl, thanks a lot. My student was starting to hook
shots and presented the the question. I was trying to
teach him Overtaking of the club past the hands and
introduced dual horizontal hinge action. I think that
he was concentrating on moving the club with the hinge
rather than monitoring the hands.

Monitor the pivot as well because the swingers horizontal hinge is created by the orbiting arms and the turning torso not by the hands themselves...

Hands
 

Thanks Whip, you are certainly correct. I was
referring to educated hands staying on plane.
I am still thinking about the hinge Pin. In Yodas
hinge board the board and pin are fixed in one place.
The hinge does what a hinge does, open and close. Same
for a hinge mounted on a door frame. The hinge board
nor the door frame do not appear to move over and back to the left to accommodate the opening. I would think that the flange
on the hinge pin would open to accommodate opening. Maintaining
the hing assembly on the left shoulder, as it goes around,
appears to me, that the hinge board or door frame would have
to move. Thanks for your input. Donn

When presented with the concept of hinge action, which concerns the alignment of the left wrist through impact, you have to understand that any motion cannot be borne from a visualisation from the mind. If you create a fiction of reality, you are suffering under delusion. When the mind focuses inward, it is creating this image out of memory from the past and it distracts you from what is happening in the present which means you are no longer aware of reality in the present. If you cannot see what is real, you cannot adapt to your environment.

Focus on the left wrist in practice if you wish to improve it. Experience what is real without the cycle of intransigence. Look for new experiences but don't sacrifice reality. Don't codify it into a verbal representation or mantra.

That explains a lot of my problems!
 

Nicely said by everyone! :thumleft:

May I add that the "Forward Press" has been very instructive to me as of late esp. with a frozen, Bent Right Wrist after the press?
