2-J-1 Impact Alignments
To whom it may concern,

In 2-J-1 it states, "Angle Hinging gives the Clubface a Slice producing uncenterd motion so while the Clubface does "Close" during Impact, Clubface alignments is slightly "Open" for short shots, but for longer shots it must be set up more and more "Closed"."

How does setting up at Impact Fix affect these alignments?
I know Yodasluke set's up this way.

With Angled Hinging, the Clubface is never set open (unless to produce a special effect). With short Shots it will be set Square and with the longer Shots "more and more closed."

Homer's thinking changed on this over the course of his six editions. The "slightly open for short shots" is from the earliest editions (the first and second, I believe; I don't have them on hand at this location).

That quote actually came from my sixth edition, but thank you for your answer. Square to Closed and off to the range I go.
