Sifting through the horrible audio, I think I heard Sam say there are two reasons why one hits at the ball instead of through the ball. One is too much right arm and not enough participation from the left arm which causes the hands to stop at waist or chest high. Second , one's backswing is too fast, which encourages the right arm hacking motion. Acceleration occurs on the downswing, not the backswing.

Toski chimes in to add that lack of body rotation also contributes to hitting at the bal instead of through the ball.

More of a what goes on in a proper swing instead of a how to. Not helpful IMHO. Great swing. Dearth of instruction.
