As Ben Doyle once said, "It isn't this hard!" I've watched the Tomasello tape kindly provided by DG and read most, if not all, of the discussions concerning Right Arm Swinging. I believe what Tom shows is not a RAS at all, but rather a version of a Left Arm Swing, in which the Left Arm is inert, as he explicitly states. The Right Arm with simultaneous help from the turning left hip allows CF to uncock the Left Wrist via a Left Arm pull. It's still a Left Arm Stroke. Tom's Right Elbow position is not forward enough for the Right Arm to PULL, it can only push. To pull, the Right Elbow must be advanced well forward of the right hip. And to be a true RAS, the Right Elbow MUST replace the Left Shoulder as the swing center, which doesn't happen in Tom's stroke.

I have described my own version of the Right Arm Swing and it's stress on the Right Arm, but have been told that I'm not executing it correctly. Maybe someone can explain to me how you can pull the club through Impact with the Right Arm, without advancing the Right Elbow past the right hip before release.
