When doing this I would run out of right arm and flip the club into impact causing massive hooks.

For me to correct the problem I consciously think or swinging"hitting in my case" on the shoulder plane. My shoulder is driving downplane while at the same time slamming a bent right wrist into impact. If you're on plane, proper finish swivel should occur with no additional effort.
I am having a terrible time with this. When I work on getting the shoulder downplane I start hitting it fat. :S

My first instinct is flipping. Always flipping. But much playing around, I don't think this is the case.

I can't find the right shoulder downplane angle or something else. It could be some sort of incorrect movement by the RFW. Whatever the problem, I can't sort it out ATM.
