Playing a "Cut Shot" from an Open-Open Plane Line with the Clubface turned to the right (the way it is commonly taught) would produce some sort of a Slice Cut Shot, with possibly higher ball flight, slice curve and a tendency to hop to the right. This would weaken the Line of Compression, making it more difficult to control distance and direction. Is this correct? Cut = face open to the path of the swinging club head. Draw = face closed to the path of the swinging club head. __________________ IB "My only handicap is me!!!" Burner View Public Profile Send a private message to Burner Find all posts by Burner
