Focus on first - not letting the clubhead get 'inside' the hands until hip high, and second, swinging OUT - from about 7 to 2 on a clock as your right arm straightens to 2 o'clock.

If that doesn't help you get a good feel for how the right arm needs the 'room' to straighten, next look to your pivot. You may not be turning through very well.

Hi Ed,

I am not quite picturing the drill that you describe. Is the club just below horizontal but not touching the ground when you do the drill?
Thanks,
Alex
