2-C-2
A "Cut Shot" is any Stroke using Vertical Hinging (10-10) through Impact regardless of Plane Line (10-5) or the preceding Wrist Action (10-18 ). Either the Dual Vertical or Vertical (only) Hinge Action should be used for the Cut Shot to avoid weakening the Line of Compression.

2-J-3
An "Outside-In" Angle of Approach sets up an Open-Open Plane Line in exactly the same manner as an Inside-Out Plane Line Combination, that is, with the Clubface aligned, per 2-J-1. Angled Hinging, then, will produce an action indistinguishable from the 2-C-2 Cut Shot except for a tendency to hop to the right, per 2-E.

The way I read this, the preferred way to hit a Cut Shot (in order to avoid weakening the line of compression) would be to use a Square Plane Line with a normal grip and to simply lay back the Clubface through Impact by using Dual Vertical or Vertical (only) Hinge Action.
Playing a "Cut Shot" from an Open-Open Plane Line with the Clubface turned to the right (the way it is commonly taught) would produce some sort of a Slice Cut Shot, with possibly higher ball flight, slice curve and a tendency to hop to the right. This would weaken the Line of Compression, making it more difficult to control distance and direction.
Is this correct?
