1) He feels like its a motion in which the right shoulder and the right elbow are getting closer to the ball. Or getting into a position in which I they can throw a punch.
2) If I don't have any hip slide and my right shoulder and right elbow don't get closer to the ball, I run out of right arm.
The hip slide is the primary move. The right shoulder and right elbow shift lower as a by product of the hip slide. You should practice the waggle making sure to focus on the crossline hip slide. Monitor the right shoulder and right elbow to make sure the hip slide causes them to respond properly. Your hip slide motion is working properly, if your shoulder drops and your elbow loads correctly, and if it is slow enough. The punishment for driving to the ball from too far away is that will indeed run out of right arm. The hip slide needs to be slow enough so that the corresponding shoulder and elbow responses have time to take effect. Then and only then, it will be "punching" time.
