Could you please expand on your point of view? How does one know when one needs right arm power if one is essentially a swinger, and how does one actually add that right arm thrust? Could you detail the entire process starting with the downstroke's pivot action and describe when/how one actually adds right arm thrust power in a synchronised and efficient manner?

I just happen to be watching the original "Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory" and at the opening of the movie all of the children are in the candy store and one of the children asks the candyman a question to which he replied, "do you ask a fish how it swims? Do you ask a bird how it flys? No, they do because they were meant to do."

Anyway, adding right arm thrust is as simple as straightening the right arm down plane. If you were to throw a ball at the ball, wouldn't you be adding right arm thrust? When a pitcher delivers a baseball to the catcher isn't his pivot preceeding his arm thrust? In order throw a ball you first had to learn the components then practice them until you could hit the target. Golf is much the same way. Don't be obsessed with "swinging or hitting". Be obsessed with compressing the ball in order to make it go where you want it to go.

Detailing the process? You better go talk to the fish and the birds.
