I also experiment with every possible swing or hit looking for the most yards under control, off the tee.

Here, in my home town - in the winter, I don't practice enough. It's only a 5 min drive/10 min trip with the bike to the indoor golf hall, but I go there too seldom. So I'm missing something there. Lazy it seems. But when I was in the south recently I practiced about 2 hours each day. A lot of short pitches and chips (acquired and basis motions. And total motion on the driving range. A litte putting as well. But I have not got detail conscious enough yet to do what you are doing, but that sounds like a good idea. I probably need to focus on the down and out part of the downstroke and get my hands more educated. The transiton has also got to be very important to work on - avoiding OTT. Downstroke waggle.

The swivel you are talking about - is that by any chance a left underarm role? Do the last 3 fingers of the left hand play a part in this? That's important for me to do. And extensor action. I read everybody's talking about #1 PP, but Yoda taught me to use the 2 mid fingers of the right hand to apply extensor action on the backswing then pull the shaft and the left arm with the body pivot on the downswing. Do you also use this? Do these 2 methods work in the same way?
