Learn Hinge Actions- for a fade learn an Angled Hinge Action. It has a natural fade to the ball flight. (move it back with a closed clubface for a draw using AH)

You can use a Horizontal Hinge action with the ball moved back to produce a fade since the clubface hasn't finished closing.

Build a machine and you control the ball and control the game.
I can't imagine studying with a one suit fits all instructor.

TGM machine didn't fail me as far as modifying Ballard. I tried swing adjustments using TGM way before Ballard. It's just that Ballard's ideas worked better for me.

My right hip is probably 45* rotated from address at the top of the backswing. Since I've freed up my left foot and allowed it to roll and lift slightly on the backswing i've eliminated any tendency to hang back/reverse pivot. Also, more weight transfer is required to make Ballard swing work for me. Fat or blocked shots would result without full weight transfer back and through.

I agree that one swing for all is not realistic but I also believe that everyone must slightly modify the basic principles of any swing theory to accomodate personal physique, strength, and timing issues.
