[O.B.Left]

Bear.

Your sore right elbow......... is a probable sign of Right ARm Swinging. A very good method but susceptible to this problem. You dont push a car with your right arm fanned, reckoned Homer. It puts too much stress at the elbow. Like a baseball pitcher maybe. I dont know, Im Canadian. Hmm well Fergie Jenkins was Canadi........a forget about it. Ask me about hockey and head shots, that I know first hand about.

You mention having a lot of #4, agreed. It makes total sense. For this Swingers Left Hand Throw procedure we are talking about, Drag Loading is a likely part of the Pattern. Ground up, 6-M-1. Pivot Power. Loading the knuckle. The Pivot takes the intact Power Package to its Release Point. Then you Trigger Release via a Throw .....of some sort. The later the better for the Swinger seeking distance.

Id venture that when you were Right Arm Swinging , assuming you were, you got a lot of the OUT normally supplied by the Pivot, via the Right Arm. In the absence of the Right Arm Swing, you'd need more Pivot. Hence your feel for the need of more #4 pressure, maybe. The Hitter and the Right ARm swinger dont need #4, Pivot like the Swinger does, they get the CF like Throwout elsewhere, most often. Not wanting to be accused of generalizing.

Im sort of guessing at all of this, but hopefully this line of thinking resonates. In short, and as you obviously know, its a system.

Bear, the other possibility is that I'm making all of this up......................which could be also be true. My grandmother was Irish after all.
