I point the seam at about leg slip for me stock offie. And I arc my arm from the right side of my body to my left hip during my delivery. I release it at the peak. His gets the ball to drift away and dip late, the ball will only spin a little unless there is some rought there but I don't get concerned if the ball isn't spinning. As an offie. beating a batsman in the air is better than beating them off the pitch IMO. Beat them in the aior and the ball doen't need to spin at all. Have a practice at slowing the delivery down a bit and trowing it up a bit to get movement in the air. Try not to rip it to hard sideways, but rather slightly over the ball like a top spinner. If you rip it too far sideways sometimes you beat them in the air and the ball may spin past the stumps which is very frustrating.
