Pitch elbow simply means the elbow is more in front of right hip opposed to side of body during downswing..

That will facilitate few things. it will allow the club rest on the PP3 ready to be pulled. and the elbow in a leading position, it allows the club to be dragged (pull) instead of pushed(hit). AKA Quinton top of the swing position.

Karate chop simply means , the palms is parallel and along the Plane ( do a seach on plane and what plane means, like the hogan piece of glass over his neck, could be higher or lower, could shift up and down another plane ). the pivot will carry your hand along this plane ( more or less what you are doing.)like a karate chop, Then at before& after impact the wrist roll ( thus closes the clubface) Then the palm will be parallel to the plane again, back up plane. This motion should not be alien to you because thats how you "Swing." , properly done, you will gain some speed.

This is a natural Horizontal Hinge of a Swinger. with a natural Draw action. Thus it is advised to use a Neutral grip. left hand is 20-30* facing right of target instead of the strong 45*

Simply play the ball more towards the target for draw, and away from target for fade.

Of course there are plenty of details... hard to describe unless somebody demonstrate in person.. I am just giving you what is in a nutshell , very overall picture. Treat what i say as a quick fix.

True TGM is learn from the basic chip , pitches , compression, like what EDZ,Matthew, Golfbulldog says, thus.. to know what we are saying.. Get the book asap for easy referencing.

For flat left wrist, it is always a Left arm swing( which is what you are doing, minus the flat left wrist i guess, but nobody i know have a flat left wrist and lag without proper education).. Right arm always push regardless of its a swing or HIT.. now... you don't have the book thus I can't reference it for you..

One word of advise, if you don't understand, Incubate, do a search, one day the egg will hatch.
