Why must a hitter angle hinge and others?
There a basic set of criteria which generally are defined by homer to be characteristics of hitters yet there have been cases where somebody does not fit this criteria. For example kenny perry is considered to be a hitter yet he bends his left arm and goes to parallel with the club. Also I have no doubts he can horizontal hinge and draw the ball if he wants.

Thus what physical limitations geometric or otherwise make angled hinging a requirement for hitting versus horizontal. Why can't you take the club all the way back if you need the time for change of direction etc.

Are we just getting a defintion that arbitrally homer defined for hitting or like anything else there are the desirables patterns and the anomolies which work better to certain indivuals.
