So thats "his version" of the angled hinge. IMO that is what made Duval so consistent when he became #1 in the world...strong grip, good plane, angle hinge and nothing but a nice fade.
Thanks Jim, I was just wondering how you came to your conclusion looking at one frame (a frame that may be or not be at the top).

The strong grip coupled with a arched wrist with angled hinging sounds that it would be a pull cut. Use Horz hinging and it should be straight since with long clubs a closed face is suggested.

Of course he could just be off plane or already in the downstroke and the arched wrist and strong grip is giving the wrong picture for those who subscribe that the clubface location at the top must be in a certain position.

Thanks again....
