Far better to learn to get that right shoulder moving down plane, and to learn proper hinge action and Rhythm.
Chip, pitch, punch. The right arm straightens down and OUT, through impact, to both arms straight

May I add to this staement if I could.
I would say the reason most people think in terms of left is this thinking of the follow through as being the total cause and effect and not the downswing.
So lets keep in mind many of the top teachers in this world can't break 80. Why would they say they would hit the ball on the downswing?
So really the only time I would think of being left is when I am testing my finished product (the wedges and were my right shoulder may or may have not ended up) in my finish and not my follow though.
