Swingers use a pitch elbow position and an underhanded slapping motion. However, near and at impact, does the forearm make the same motion as described by Doug for the push basic stroke? Along the line that the right forearm is positioned at impact fix? If not , then how should swingers train their stroke for short shots?

The lack of Power in the
Push Basic Stroke restricts its application to the Short Shots, i.e., Putts, Chips and short Pitches.
Hitting or Swinging,
Punch and
Pitch Basic Strokes require a Fanning Motion. However, by definition, there can be
no Fanning Motion in the ponderous Push Basic. The Forearm can be positioned along the same line for each of the three Major Basic Strokes, but only with Push Basic does the Forearm actually move along that line. Again, with both Punch and Pitch, the Elbow must Fan.
"When does the Elbow Fan?" I asked Homer Kelley as the rain fell outside his study in February 1982.
Said he: "Immediately."
