[12 piece bucket]

Got to be careful with Homers "Swinging vs Hitting". In 6-H-0 for instance he's talking True Swinging vs Drive Loading not Swinging vs Hitting general per say. In the above quote he's talking Drag vs Drive Loading , Arc of Approach vs Angle of Approach ( as an aside you can Hit and use the Arc) and assuming a certain grip type, wedges 90 degrees etc. So to answer your question , 4B Drag then Drive is a different animal, neither 12-1 nor 12-2.

Here's one for you. You say Angle of Approach is cross line, closed plane line (correctly) and then show photos of Arnie hitting a driver. Assuming Arnie positioned his ball at low point with that driver........If the Angle of Approach is a straight line from Impact to Low point .........wouldnt it, the angle of approach be straight line , square, inline with the target line?

And what are the implications to the quote above given a Hitter using the Angle of Approach who positions his ball at low point? For a Hitter using the Arc of Approach? How might these Hitters differ in terms of elbow position? Club shaft Plane Angle? Club head plane angle? Pivot participation?

There are 4B Hitters , there are 12-1 rs , there are Angle of Approachers , Hitters using the Arc of Approach , there are options, lots of options .......lots...

You know more about this junk than me....I'm trying to figure out how you can HIT/DRIVE if the forearm is directly opposed to the secondary lever...in you questions above does the positioning of the right forearm eventually change? Or can you hit from deep pitch late? IMO if you are pitch...you are pulling...
