right forearm takeaway and pivot for swingers and hitters
Hi, i'm new to the golfing machine and i've tried to search everywhere for information on the specific path that the right forearm needs to take to get to top position. I know the right forearm needs to be on plane.
I saw the alignment golf video and it seems that VJ is doing this "lawnmower" motion. Is that actually what we are supposed to be doing? How much fan and how much pulling back goes into it?

Thanks this video was great. I wanted to make sure i understood one part:
1. What are the benefits of adjusted address?
2. Is your right forearm still parallel to the shaft plane if you are in adjusted address? It doesn't look like it in this video.
3. When is it appropriate to start the body pivot in the right forearm takeaway? Should the left arm be stradling across the chest before you start moving the pivot?
Sorry but forget about the lawnmower and forget about walrus war chant and all this stuff. Turn your body with your head between your feet with a full hip and shoulder turn, in sync with this turn And with extensor lift the hands an clubhead up the plane with rotation via the right forearm simply move the right forearm in a way that allows the hands and clubhea to fan up the plane angle very easy to practice in a mirror.

With a light constant pressure that is extensor action, and the right forearm in-line and on plane, the right palm should seek to rotate and lift flat to the plane immediately, the right arm bends as it fans immediately lifting and rotating the hands and clubhead up the plane with extensor. This action cocks the left wrist into the backstroke, all the while the pivot is simply turning with it from the very start. It all goes together and right from the start, straight up and rotational
The adjusted address for the swinger helps setup the swinging action in the startup instead of te carry back action of the hitter from impact fix. U can address the ball at impact fix, adjusted address or anywhere in between if u so choose, however adjusted address gives the body a midway point between the weight shifting and is an ideal place to start for the swinger

The right forearm action is up and down (right forearm Karate chop). The fanning motion described in 10-3-A is result of the rotational action of the hips and shoulders. Read Tom Tomasello's Golf Illustrated interview on this site.
Standard Hip Action 10-15-A and the Magic of the Right Forearm action in secion 7-3 will solve your backstroke action for both hitting and swinging. Your one step from playing great golf.
