V.J's dowel drill is good for pointing out the extent of the problem but there may be a better drill to give you a solution.

Ben Doyle's drill: Cut a length of dowel so it can be used as a stick seat. Put the dowel in place and learn to swing the club and Pivot so that the dowel doesn't fall away from your butt until follow-through. Don't put a lot of weight on the dowel because it'll defeat the purpose.

You won't hit the dowel in V.J.'s drill if you learn to pivot using Ben Doyles Drill.

Bucket uses a drill involving a car battery and jumper cables but it's been banned in most States and Canada.
