Thanks for all intiated replies! However, stubborn as I am, I am still not convinced that one could swing(pull) with the right arm since according to the laws of physics a force coming from the rear will always be a pushing one. I feel somewhat confused.

It's all about the acceleration. There are only two options, and they happen to be mutually exclusive. You either accelerate the golf club longitudinally or radially. I think 7-19 and 10-19 talk about this.

Longitudinal acceleration is possible with the left arm, and/or the right arm.....I think the only thing that matters is how the club is moving/accelerating. Using the right arm to accelerate the golf club longitudinally would produce a 'right arm swing.'

Labrador - think about a pool cue stick. When you move the cue stick back and through the billiards ball you are moving the length of the stick longitudinally. Like this:

If you took the cue stick and turned it 90 degrees from the ball like this:

and used the length of the stick to move the ball, this is radial acceleration.

I think the same applies to the clubshaft.
