Not looking to get TOO in-depth here.

Does your right forearm rotate (left forearm for lefties) during your BACKSWING? Yes / No

If so, at what point in the backswing does it rotate?

I have always been told to not work the right arm. Good examples of professional swings often show the right hand is almost just along for the ride, even nearly off the club after impact.

Good left arm control results in a penetrating strong ball flight for me, leave it out and I fade, work it and I draw.

My last lesson was looking at what happened to my right arm, and I have been trying to get it into anatomically impossible positions. I think I've sussed it now - we'll see.
