Hitting Help
From what I see and from what you've said so far, Comet is giving you good advise.

Couple of pointers on Hitting -
For hitting, try a 10-2-D grip. It's a strong grip but perfect for angled hinging because it facilitates the simultaneous uncock/roll very well.

Rather than trace the plane line, you will take a more closed line to the ball and one way to set this up is at address is:

In your address position move your right elbow a little more toward your side rather than in front of your left hip. You are going to use a push basic stroke. Looking down at your right forearm, you will see the path that your hands will take up and back down. Follow that line with your hands for your backstroke and downstroke. You can pre-clear your right hip at address to make room for your hands to move up at startup.

Take a slow startdown and at your release point, straighten your right arm as hard as you want. Use your stationary right shoulder as a backstop when you start pushing. The primary focus for pushing is your #1 pressure point. Use the palm of your right hand to drive the base of your left thumb through impact.

This is the easy stuff, the hard part is keeping your right wrist bent through impact. Don't allow the right wrist to flatten until you are into your follow-through.

There is a lot more in hitting to learn about. The advise on this site in the Hitting section is the best anywhere because Ted and others know how to execute a Hit stroke. I only used it for a year, but got a big whiff of it.

Best wishes on your Hitting journey and enjoy the laser guided rockets you'll be launching.
