Hi Danny_XXXXX (sorry, cant say the word, I had em - as Mr Penick says, I prefer to call it laterals)...

At any rate, I am not sure of the swivel being independent of the rolling of the left arm. However, the finish swivel is a rotation (some say wrist, some say forearm) that allows or ensures an onplane motion through the follow through. And, in this case, the main issue to me is - if you dont swivel back on plane (for whatever reason or as a result of whatever anatomical reason), the real issue would seem to occur before. What I mean is, if I want to be onplane, prior to a movement, I have to initiate and sustain it. SO, if you dont swivel back onplane, I would think you issue in that regard would begin prior to impact.

I have the same issue. And for me, trying to hook it off the course works. WAY WAY WAY off he course. Over and over (crimson and clover - ). Rotate them ole forearms, wrists, hands...whatever it takes! Both of them!

Of course, take this for what it's worth (free website, free posts), but just an idea.
