I'm converting from switter to swinger under AI guidance. Here is a point of confusion - demonstrated by the fact I'm not getting to both arms straight.
Growing up playing baseball, I took hitting lessons from very knowledgeable coach. The drill we worked on the most was as follows: Imagine there is a knife in the butt end of the bat - stick that knife in the pitcher. The result was very powerful. When I took up golf, I tried this same motion. It never quite worked (now I think it didn't work because I was still aiming the knife at the pitcher).

Baseball is played on a horizontal plane while golf is played on an inclined plane.
Trying to perform your 'knife' drill in golf has given you a very powerful roundhouse indeed.
Per 7-13: "Keep that Right Shoulder not only "back" but also "down"...or you will "run out of Right Arm" before the Hands reach Impact Position- an automatic Throwaway (7-14,8-6)"
No wonder there is no follow through per 6-H-C and 8-11.
Per 2-N-0: "There must be an Underhand Pitch motion and Feel. If there isn't you are "Roundhousing"..."
Would love to write more, but am headed out the door to D-A-N-C-E!
Can someone explain what roundhousing is? I have heard this a few times and am not sure of what it is and how to tell if I am doing it?
Thanks in advance for the help.
Roundhousing is when your right shoulder goes over the inclined plane line instead of on it.
Think of it as Muhammad Ali in a golf posture, pulverizing a water melon on a table that is waist high in front of him with his right arm. His shoulders will be...."ROUNDHOUSING."
If you want to dispense with this image of fury, then take your book out, turn to 10-13-D #3.
See how Diane's right shoulder come down the plane. If it is over, i.e to your right, then that is a roundhouse.

only if he was throwing a hook...if he used a jab, shoulder straight down the plane!
