You are probably hung up on the name. It is nothing more than taking your right hand and moving it directly (i.e., On Plane) from Impact Fix to the Top of the Backstroke via the motion of the Right Forearm.
As a drill, figure out where your right hand is located at the Top of the Backswing. Have someone stand behind you and place the palm of their hand where the back of your right hand should stop. Without any thinking, you can take your hand directly to that location simply by lifting the Right Forearm. That is the Right Forearm Pickup.
Any other Drills or FEELS for this procedure... that will ensure the FOREARM and club are traveling UP the plane, and not too much back and in... that can be done without another person's assistance?
Right Arm Pick-up.....Full Sweep Loading...as the right forearm moves back and up you're folding your right elbow.
True extensor action takeaway per 10-19-0....Random Loading for Hitting and Snap Loading for Swinging....move the forearm back and up and let the right elbow fold naturally al la Ernie Els.

Make sure your trail arm is a little bent and a space is seen from behind so your trail arm is very slightly lower than your lead arm. From this position raise your forearm (the part between your wrist bone and elbow)apply extensor action.

I don't appreciate your offensive remark.
In the last two summers I have spent countless hours studying and practising the golf swing.
Today at the range, a rainy day with dead range balls, I peppered the 225 yard flag with ball after ball... never quite hit it but came real close a few times..I even had a little audience.
I can put my trailing arm in several different positions and still meet the criteria you speak of, so either please respect my question or don't waste my time.

Rumbler,
I can sort of see where you may have thought that he was insulting your intelligence by pointing out "the part between your wrist bone and elbow." BUT it is a critical point in the Right Forearm Pick-up. I think that the point to this statement was that in the Right Forearm Pick-Up you ABSOLUTELY DO NOT raise the club by COCKING your RIGHT WRIST.
This point cannot be stressed too much. Your Right Wrist remains LEVEL. I doesn't COCK PERIOD. Otherwise the Right FOREARM Flying Wedge is destroyed. NOTE: It is a Right Forearm Wedge and not a Right Arm Wedge. I think this is the point that was being made. Cock the Right Elbow not the Wrist. In doing so the Left Wrist will Cock while the Right Wrist remains Level.
To get the idea of how this works. Split your hands on the grip. Pick the club up by bending the Right Elbow WITHOUT cocking the right wrist. Be sure that it remains LEVEL. Now watch how your Left Wrist Cocks with out the Right Wrist Cocking.

I debated for a minute whether it was meant offensively, humorously, or instructionally.
Since I am very aware of the level right hand and bend at the elbow technique, and since all he did was define the term "forearm" it had zero instructional value.
And based on my knowledge of professionals working in the golf field I determined a sense of humor was out of the question.
It is not a bg deal.
Anyway my question arises because after about 20 near perfect drives one right after the other I started getting disoriented on what to do in the backswing.
I want to be able to hit a whole bucket of perfect drives without losing it. Then I will move on to my short game.
My remark was not offensive. The instruction that I stated came right from Ted Fort to my forearm to gods ears........
If I wanted to be offensive, I would have started my sentence with "You idiot".............

I found the precise answer to my question on Page 3 Emergency room/swingers.. subject.. Head...post #s 4 and 6. Specifically item 2 in post # 6 by Yoda.
Your remark was offensive to me. Before you post you should use your brain (it's between your ears).
