I got an email from a respected member of LBG with another idea. 9 to 3 drills using only my pivot on the downstroke, no hands.

Once you use your hands it shuts your body off.
Using this idea along with the other comments will make a huge difference. I hit as many balls as my back would allow yesterday, and really started to get the feel of using my pivot to get the club back up the plane after impact. What a great feeling, my compression had been improving, but this was a quantum leap.
Here is a picture of the same ugly swing I posted before, but this is at impact. Not terrible here, but it sure deteriorated fast! Immedately after this picture, my hands take over and flip, my body absolutely quits turning just as my anonymous friend pointed out.
Picture 1 (impact)
Picture 2 (FUGLY!)
Jerry is going to get me on film Monday at the dome, hopefully picture #2 will be very much improved. I'll still be fat though...
Thanks LEO!

Kevin,
I don't see much difference in your left foot position from the "fugly" picture. If my left foot was where your's is my body would quit as well.

Nope, that's still part of the "before" swing. I haven't taped myself yet using the help you all have given me. The flared left foot you suggested is a HUGE part of what I am working hard at!

Kev,
I'm glad I saw this so I bring the camera. I'll bring the fish-eye lens.
To be fair, the photos shown are from this summer shortly after our time with Yoda. In October and especially last week your turn was much better. I believe you will be pleasantly surprised by what you see. The flared left foot will probably be icing on the cake.
As long as we're talking about cake, let's be sure to stop at the bakery when we finish. Something healthful--like carrot cake...

Man that looks good. Does the knee hurt when you do that? Awesome.
That aint too far from Total Motion really. Just a little bit longer on the backswing to get to right shoulder high and your there. But Alan Doyle could play from where you are there with that wedge no problem.

LOL, that's really pretty close to MY total motion!
As long as I keep my foot flared, my knee doesn't hurt, and it helped tremendously. I need to keep working at Leo's suggestion and keep those hands quiter so my body keeps turning. If I can ever get THAT middle to keep going, the ball may never come down!
Thanks O.B.
