Right elbow position for those of us with a pot belly

As the title suggests, I can only position my right elbow leading just so much due to my pot belly. What can I do besides losing some weight to better position myself on the downswing to impact and beyond? Thanks, Dave M.

Hi David,

Check out this video if you haven't already. https://www.golfsmartacademy.com/golf-instruction/analysis-husky-golfers/

A lot of huskier golfers appear to control the swing more with their lead arm. I'd definitely try the single-arm releases and if the lead arm isn't working at least as well as the right, then I'd put some focus there.

let me know if you have any other questions after watching the video analysis on it.
