[Yoda]

Vickie,Yoda suggested Iask you about a pain in my right elbow after doing the dowel drill .I'm either doing it wrong or using muscles I've not used before.Any ideas ?

You are probably swinging your Right Arm, Neil. If so, you have transferred your Arm Swing Center from your Left Shoulder to your Right Elbow. This motion is not a straight-line piston action of the Right Arm. Consequently, it can cause a twinge in the Right Elbow and, ultimately, injury to the ligaments.
