Hey all,

I have been reading older threads and trying to muddle through a lot of very interesting material. One thing that I have had a lot of trouble with is hitting the ball (or swinging the club) on the left arm plane (as I called it) or the right forearm plane. I came across is a thread titled "Bending the plane". Very educational. I am still not entirely clear but the fog is lifting. The right forearm plane seems more natural for me and more powerful, but I do not understand the mechanics involved in it. I have to "swing left" as opposed to down the target line, but I really need to learn and understand hinging, and how to perform each one. Does it matter if you are hitting or swinging? is there an advantage/disadvantage of one over the other?

I know I don't have to be a PhD to hit the golf ball really well, but boy do I feel really stupid as I poke around the old threads here.

If anyone has any direction with this topic please feel free to point me in a proper direction.
Thanks
