And did you get what I meant when I said that (to me) there's two totally different feels on the backswing- a "moving everything together under my chin" type feeling, or, a "cock my right elbow to bring the club up" feeling.

To me, they're totally different, and I'm wondering if the "cocking" style is o.k. for a swinger. I hope I'm explaining myself correctly- forgive me if I'm not. Again- I'm a TGM novice.

I assume you guys have already seen this, but it is on topic:

Straight from 7-3 (last paragraph) - "...in compliance with 6-B-3-0-1, Bending and Straightening the Right Elbow will RAISE AND LOWER the left arm and/or COCK AND UNCOCK THE LEFT WRIST without Bending, Flatening, or Cocking the Right Wrist. Practice this first at impact fix. So, Right Elbow Action either powers and/or controls all three elements or Three Dimensions Impact (2-C-0) per 1-L-9. All this you will come to know as THE MAGIC OF THE RIGHT FOREARM."

Refer to the Tom Tomasello correspondance video series to see this 'magic' in the hands of a master.
