Great question!

Lay your right forearm on a table. Bend your wrist back. DO NOT COCK. Place a dowel or shaft in the cup of your hand. The entire shaft/dowel and entire length of your forearm are in the same plane (the horizontal plane of the table). This is your right forearm flying wedge. The key here is under no circumstances do you cock your right wrist. Your right wrist is now LEVEL. Keep it that way.

The table is on a Horizontal plane. Now just imagine the table being on an angled plane like a roof. The on plane alignment of your shaft and forearm are the same regardless of what plane you are on. The forearm and shaft/dowel are in the plane of the right wrist bend.

When you take the club up, don't take it up with your wrist cock. Your right wrist is motionless. Take the club up by bending your elbow.

I'm sure that the Magic of the Right Forearm will show up here soon. All of this is from Yoda's Right Forearm Primer. I probably butchered it. But I think this should get you started.
