How much Cen Force

[MizunoJoe]

Im struggling with release and in need of some wisdom....i have been getting mixed results and indeed mixed distances with my Swinging Pattern,as I getting in to release,I feel that my swing centre is far too early just using the rotating shoulders and gravity,and cent /force,I have been playing with manually getting my R/elbow more into the "pitch"position.
This seems to be getting my hands into a better position for releasing than just using Shoulder/rotation,my pivot feels ok but my swing feels "better" by moving my r/elbow and has the feeling that I pulling the shaft down into release in a straighter line from the top.
Am I doing something wrong by using this action or is it OK?

Thanks in advanceBM

Try keeping your elbows close together at address and all the way to the top, like Hogan suggests in 5L, and you won't have to move it. Then make sure all the pulling is done by pushing the right shoulder.

Here's the part of the book I believe you're alluding to. Ive taken the liberty of bolding the particular sentence of interest.

That's it! Thanks, OB

This is a lost point for most. There is no left arm pull for any strokes that include #4 pivot power. For a Pull Minor Basic Stroke a one accumulator stroke that zeroes the pivot yes you pull the left arm with left arm muscle . But for other strokes the left arm , the #4 accumulator is moved, thrown off , by the pull of the Pivot , the left shoulder specifically since it attaches to the left , which is directed and powered by the on plane push of right shoulder and before it the hips . Assuming ground up, swinging from the feet.
