The cure is worse than the disease in that I at least had a fairly repeatable swing before; now my vertical radius is wildly erratic.

I'd appreciate drills, swing thoughts, training aids, anything that might help, the simpler the better. By the way, I'm a swinger. Thank you.

5-0...but, especially during Start Down (waggle will help) - maintain the Clubhead Lag relationshipto the Plane Line - not to the body. That - failure to clear the Right Hip (Roundhouse) can initiate almost every alignment disruption, including SHANKING.
