The key to the Push Basic Stroke is to move the Right Forearm back and through along the line it is positioned. The Right Elbow acts as a piston and only bends and straightens. It does not Fan.

If the Forearm is positioned pointing at the Plane Line, you get automatic Angled Hinging (the Clubface angles across the Line at the end of the Follow-Through).

If it is positioned parallel to the Plane Line, you get automatic Vertical Hinging (the Clubface remains Square to the Line).

Most people who attempt Push Basic really don't do it. In other words, they don't merely bend and straighten the Right Elbow while keeping the Body -- especially the Right Shoulder -- still (Putt Minor Basic Stroke per 10-3-E). Instead, they freeze their bent Arms -- Paw Minor Basic Stroke (10-3-H) -- and move the Club by rocking their Shoulders.

The real benefit of the Push Basic Stroke is that you can Stroke the Short Shots with great authority...and yet maintain absolute control of distance. The ponderous, pushing Motion simply is incapable of producing any real Clubhead velocity. That is why beginners should avoid using it until they have learned to Fan the Right Forearm. But once Fanning is mastered, heed the words of Homer Kelley:

"Get in there and work it to death. It's a beautiful procedure."

Yoda----I presume, (notice not assume), that ability to use diff. hindge action w/ 10-3-c is limited? If not please describe....thanks much
