A question I am trying to wrap my head around as well!

I'm assuming this has to do with the natural 'laying back' action of the angled hinge motion?

Interesting thread, fellows. Sorry I'm late...

The Hitter does indeed direct the #3 Pressure Point (Lag Pressure Thrust) along the Angle of Approach and thus through the inside-aft quadrant of the Ball. The wrinkle here is that, unlike when using the Swinger's Horizontal Hinging, you do not hit the Ball with an Open Clubface when applying the Hitter's Angled Hinging. Instead, you hit the Ball with a Closed Clubface.

The Clubface for Angled Hinging is aligned at Impact Fix Closed to the Target Line per 2-J-1 -- and the longer the Shot the more Closed the Clubface. Also, the further back the Ball is located toward the Right Foot, the more Closed the Clubface becomes to the Delivery Line and the Lag Pressure Point (7-11).

Thus, though the Lag Pressure is driven through the inside-aft quadrant of the Ball, the Closed Clubface 'wraps around' enough to impact the outside-aft quadrant. This action, at a minimum, offsets the Fading tendency of the Uncentered 'Layback Action' characteristic of the Angled Hinge Motion. When the divergence of Clubhead Path and Clubface Alignment is more severe, the result is a Draw or Hook.

Yes, John, you can produce a 'natural Draw' when Hitting (or 'Manipulated Hands' Swinging) simply by playing the Ball back a bit -- provided you (1) align the Clubface Closed to the Flight Line per 2-J-1 and (2) Rotate your Grip per 7-2. You can do the same thing as a True Swinger by Rotating your Plane Line. Opposite procedures are employed to Fade the Ball.

There are not enough words to properly explain and telegraph into your brain what I've just said. Therefore, we will soon produce a video to collectively explain and demonstrate these relatively simple procedures...for the first time in the history of Golf Instruction.
