right arm or hands?

[exgolfpro]

I have a question regarding the right arm in the swing and the use of the hands. I have read on this site and in the book about right arm take away. I also understand that the hitters motion is a right arm thrust from the top of the backswing. But, I also read that the hands are the thing in the swing. Educated hands control the swing/pivot. Well, if my educated hands take the club back to control my backswing pivot, then my right forearm is not doing it. Also, if my hands control the body pivot coming thru, then my right forearm will be at the mercy of my hands, or vice versa if I use my forearm. I guess I'm looking for a little guidance.
