For most golfers, this is absolutely the direction to error in shifting your weight. Step through drills are some of the best IMO.

That said, you only want movement that is efficient - smooth and heavy - and of course, balanced.

Sounds like some setup and pivot work could be helpful to you.

Imagine you are going to break down a wall with your left shoulder, stay balanced, and hold your finish until the ball stops.

Practice without a club, or with a heavy club, just your hands - close your eyes, stay in balance.

Downplane force.
