So I have recently discovered this site and learned that I am a hitter. I love hitting, I can finally use my strength and knock the snot out of the ball. I have picked up a lot of useful information on this site thus far. In order to save my self cerebral overload. I have three questions that I believe would solidify my new swing.
1. Does a Hitter perform a Right Fore Arm Take Away?
2. Should the right forearm be aligned with the shaft with the elbow tucked in the right hip, when looking down the line at address?
3 should the top of the left wrist be flat at address or should the left arm be straight down under the chin?
I appreciate any help. It just got sunny so I will post video after this weeked.
Since this is my firt post. Some personal background is in order. My name is Carl, I live in Ann Arbor Michigan, I started golfing on the fourth of July 2011 (Independence Day indeed). I have built my entire set of clubs, and I'm looking and transitioning from the legal proffession to a carreer in the golf industry by summer of 2013.
Thank you very much for your time.

Carl, I've enclosed a reference below that summarizes my view of a "short thumb grip" that Hogan taught as he improved his technique. It really has helped me. it was shown to me by Lynn Blake. I am not expert in Hitting or Swinging as others here are but I hit a 145 yard plus 9 iron on purpose several times yesterday through a goal post both Hitting and Swinging and several drives that hit their Apex well beyond the 200 yard markers as well.
I am not a Leadbetter fan but I am a novice. Notice references 5 (both of them) and 3.
