Zone 1 problem! Easily solved. As suggested, either get a long dowel. Or go to Lowes or Home Depot, ask where the drive way / yard reflectors are. Purchase one of the long orange reflector rods.
Take the dowel or rod and run it through the belt loops in your pants. Now take out a 6 iron and swing without touching the dowel with your right elbow or arm. If you spin the hips you will hit the dowel/rod. Use a slow swing first, add speed as you contiue to miss the dowel / rod until you miss it at full speed. To assist further I offer this next tidbit:
Remember if you are a swinger you want to move your hips laterally verses cross laterally which is a spin. To get the sensation of lateral movement you can use a laser pointer or flashlight. Put the laser/light on your left butt check pointing to the ground. The beam should be pointing/shining on the ground. When you make your downswing pivot you should see the beam of light move laterally (towards the target) if it moves towards the ball STOP. Do it again, and again until it moves laterally towards the target! Combine this with the truning torso and not hitting the dowel / rod and you will be on your way!
Good Luck
