I think my question is relevant to this post...
I have been struggling with starting the ball too far out to the right. In trying to figure this out, I noticed that my right elbow and arm extend out toward the target through the hitting zone. Today I tried to do practice swings and hit balls while trying to keep my right elbow closer to my body through the hitting zone and have my right elbow/arm arc around my body. It flattened my follow through and video showed that it made my follow through path more in line with my downswing path. Other than hitting into a net, I haven't taken this to the range to see how I hit the ball when trying to do this.
Anyway, can firing the right elbow out from the body and toward the target in the hitting zone cause pushes? If so, is the feel I describe above a good start to try to correct this??
