Great pics Ted - really captures the 'feel' difference of the loading action - side of the shaft (hitter) vs top of shaft (swinger)

Not to take this thread off on a tangent, but these pictures suggest that plane angle may (or may not) be a factor in the rotation of the pressure point.

The flatter the plane angle, the more likely the pressure point would not 'need' to rotate, the steeper the plane angle, the more the pressure point would need to rotate, to stay on plane - everything else being equal that is. Always exceptions (Nicklaus and Hogan for example) - both of whom had to actively 'do' something with their hands (single vs standard wrist action). Perhaps those 'opposite trends' helped them never go left

I think that you could throw both of those guys in the "never go left" category.

Hogan hated going left almost as much as he hated putting in the later years.
