With a hitting motion on a pitch shot, should the elbow go infront of the hip and would this apply to the full swing with a wedge?
There are three elbow locations, at the side (punch) deep in front (pitch) and behind the shaft (push). A hitter would use punch or push for all types of shots. A hitters motion is a driving right arm to straight through the ball so either elbow position works.
Pitch elbow is a maximum participation late release for swingers.
