The drill of tossing the club down target is fine but the throw of the clubhead starts before impact. That drill is a good way to feel final swivel and follow through.

corrections on this feel?
The feel in my case depends on how much axis tilt/delayed release I am using.

If I am going for max delay, more axis tilt and a 'deep' release (snap), it really feels like a throw towards the ground near my right foot (the right shoulder moving downplane/snap release)

With less axis tilt/more level shoulders (sweep release), the the feel is more of a throw down and out to aiming point/both arms straight - through the impact hand location)

In both cases the throw is DOWNplane to both arms straight, through the inside corner of the ball - so yes, slightly out to right field.

Very much like Wally Armstrong's image of kicking a soccer ball (inside corner, slightly out to the right)
