When is vertical hinging being used? Putting (Pelz/PILS), chipping, cuts?
Due to its Power limitations, Vertical Hinging is best used only in the Short
Shots.
Homer Kelley was no fan of Vertical Hinging. He thought it was important to
learn in order to be able to differentiate the three Hinge Actions, but on
the Golf Course, he strongly preferred Angled Hinging. The reason was that,
on the steep Plane of the shorter Shots, Angled Hinging approaches the
Layback Only characteristic of Vertical Hinging. However, it does so without
the deliberate mechanical manipulation -- the 'Reverse Roll' Feel -- that is
always required for Vertical Hinging.
