Just go to the Chapter Series on "Power" and you'll see how I use my right arm to accelerate the club.

On my full swing what I think about is three things, withdrawl the right hip, extensor action and keeping the hands on the straight delivery path.

Right Hip/Right Arm Backstroke, Right Arm/Left Hip Downstroke. On the downstroke, I just let the left hip respond to the action of the right arm (magic of the right forearm per 7-3), the hips lead the shoulders. The hips react with a sliding motion, then a rotational motion for release and follow through.

I really enjoy the Tomasello videos despite what 'appears' to be some descrepencies. 'Appears' to me that Tom was teaching a left arm swing with a wrist throw. Yoda 'appears' to have some genuine respect and/or affection for Tomasello so I don't wish to pursue this matter any further.
