Is hinging only consodered on the impact area? If I did angled and the wrist stayed perpendicular to the inclined plane then on the backswing ,u palm would be face up when my arm is at 9 oclock. So, I am assuming the hinging is only occuring in the hitting zone.

Horizontal vs. angled. If it's the same except the wrist is perpendicular to the plane for angled and thowrizontal is perp to the ground, then when would you horizontal hinge?

Angled hinging=horizontal hinging to the angle plane?

Each of the following paragraphs corresponds to the question in it's respective paragraph above.

1) Hinging is only in effect during impact, but should be "felt" from impact to followthrough (both arms straight).

2) The wrist is always perpendicular to the inclined plane because we stand on the side of the ball. To execute the horizontal hinge on an inclined plane (dual horizontal hinge), you need to change your "feel." Remember how the "swinging door" example was "no roll on a horizontal plane"? When you drop that horizontal hinge onto an angled plane (dual horizontal hinge), the feel becomes that of a full roll.

3) Angled hinging is not horizontal hinging on an angled plane. Each of the three hinge actions produces different clubface motions. You just have to "move" the horizontal and vertical hinges onto the angled plane, and to do that their "feels" change. Each hinge action feels like a "no roll" on it's respective plane - and since and angled hinge is already on an angled plane, that "feel" doesn't change. But the horizontal hinge becomes a full roll feel and the vertical hinge a reverse roll feel.
