I have trouble straightening my right arm out through my follow through in the correct direction. My right arm definitely reaches extension but not down the target line, I tend to bring it around to fast. Any drills that can help with that?

It's probably coming OTT and you're hitting pull-hooks, right?  I would check your shoulder plane, make sure it isn't too flat and your shoulders are turning on a circle.  Then you really need to work on sequencing so that you don't accelerate the club too quickly.  When it's got too much speed for your body to keep up with, it flips and goes left exiting fairly low.  Work on staying connected and sequencing.

I actually hit a pretty nasty slice with my woods

if you have to think about straightening the right arm, you're probably starting the downswing too quickly and reaching max speed before you hit the ball, instead of accelerating through it. you want the shoulders to rotate your upper body into p6 when your club is horizontal to the ground then you can swing/hit with your arms.

Swing with a towel or tees under your arms.  We swing on an incline plane so ideally we don't want the arms extending towards the target.

This is a good drill or way to get the feel
