I didn't know I was right arm swinging until Ted Fort told me I was and moved me to more of a hitters action. My only thought process was to pull the club with the right elbow, absolutlely no thought of the hands doing anything. I was actually trying to get into a pitch elbow condition that Ben Doyle taught me. I would just pivot and try to drag my elbow in a pitch position.

I could hammer the ball this way and generated a ton of lag, but had a tendency to hook with the longer clubs. I also had a tendency to get off plane and swing to the right.

DG's and TT's version of right arm swing has you actually trying to throw the club from the top, but with a proper pivot the club will square up perfectly. Much more "magic of the right forearm" in their motion.
