10-4, copy that, code D.
Hmm...

I agree with Ed about everything he said.

Ed,

My statement that 10-2-A & 10-18-B with Circle path was just to say that it's compatible. I didn't mean to imply that it's recommended.

Hogans 10-2-A & 10-18-B released earlier than a "Snap Release". Elbow Plane.

Hogan didn't allow his upper left arm to move away from his chest. His Pivot compensated by Locating his Right Elbow further forward on-plane for Release and Impact but not Follow-through. Hence, the slight amount of Throw-Away we often observe.

We'll never know if Hogan treated the Left Arm and Clubshaft as a Primary Lever and the Left Shoulder as a Hinge Pin. But it seems, after watching about every video of him that I could find, that he used his Head as the Center of which everything Rotated. ??
