With pure hitting using the 10-5-E crossline approach, would the hips be more square or even closed at impact fix compared to conventional methods?
Both Hitters and Swingers should align the Body 'comparatively squared away' (slightly turned) to their selected Delivery Line (10-8-A). Hitters using the Angle of Approach procedure should align their Hips and Shoulders slightly open to the Angle of Approach. Similarly, Swingers should align the Body slightly open to the Geometric Plane Line (2-J-3).
Slightly open to the intended Delivery Line in hitting might make the hips appear almost square to the target line and the shoulders slightly closed right before impact. Just trying to grt visual clearance from a recent fogbank. Thanks in advance!

The incubator has been working overtime and it is time for a few questions on pure Hitting. If one is using 10-5-E and Drive Loading down the angle of approach, should the clubface look slightly closed at the Top because it is square to the crossline angle of approach? If so would the paddle wheel method of constantly closing the clubface on the way down be compatible?

Absolutely, that's why the look of the clubface and clubshaft look a little out of place from the down the line view on my video. If the camera was positioned "on plane" with the angle of approach, I think you'd be suprised to see how "on plane" it really is. Additionally, the look of angled hinging will be the same.
Excellent! I now have a second question. Does the right shoulder continue moving downplane in three barrel hitting, or thrusting downplane in 4 barrel hitting until the right arm is straight? This drive loading all the way to the straight arms position is the only way I feel as though I am hitting to Bejing. Is it fair to say that nothing moves upward until extensor action completely straightens the right arm downplane to aiming point?

The shoulder in hitting has to become a platform. In 4 barrel hitting, the shoulder begins and takes up the momentum, and stops just as quickly as it starts. The only way that I was able to make this change was to do weeks of zero pivot hitting (coming from the swinging background that I'd been taught). I'd agree that nothing moves up until the end of follow-through (both arms straight - about two feet past the ball).
I feel as though my right forearm has to pass my body before I get to arrive at finish. If the right shoulder actively continues downplane the right arm can't catch up. It doesn't take much centrifugal force for the right arm to be draging instead of driving.
