Thanks EdZ and Birdie! I'll start work on this tomorrow! Question, though, EdZ. Does the right thumb and forefinger drill work for hitting? I've seen this drill, but always thought of it as a swingers drill.

Yes, a hitter will really get a good feel for PP#1 using this drill.

I find it helps me feel a heavier club (lag) if I feel like my hands travel at the same speed through the ball as they do on the backstroke. Not necessarily slow but constant. No speeding up to hit the ball. This dovetails nicely with the thought of tracing the plane line too.
Okay, I have another question. How can I tell if I have cocked my right wrist at the top of my backstroke?
Just as a_c posted above.
The folding right forearm on the Take Away will cock the Left wrist. The Right wrist remains Level and Bent.
It may feel as if the Left wrist is "undercocked" but it isn't. Your Flying Wedge assembly is complete. From the top of the Back Swing drive the whole club (shaft and clubhead) through the ball to low point. You will notice that the sweetspot of pp3 and driving action of pp1 line up behind the shaft- a true weapon of mass destruction. Enjoy your divots.

It does feel as though my left wrist has not cocked, or as you say is "undercocked". I'll keep with it and try to get used to the feeling. I'll try to enjoy my divots. Thanks!
