Far too many people do this too heavy and end up pressing. Keep it light and get the full stretch at the bottom and perform a controlled movement. I beleive that 45 deg angle is way too high as delts are too involved. I'd say more like 30 deg is the optimum.:p
Well you obviously did not take the time to read the previous posts.

An angle of less than 45 degrees does not hit my upper pecs at all.

It is a flye, not a press, but TBH I care little about any ones opinion on this, I do it the way it hits my pecs best, and that is the way, for me.

If you like 'hugging trees', then crack on, does not work for me.

'Keep it light' what a great bit of advice there, lol
