Eracer is on a distinguished road
This is so "me" right now it's not even funny. The lessons I'm currently taking are geared towards a modern 2-pivot swing. "Left shoulder turns over right foot, club in front of body on takeaway, head moves to the right, re-route club to the inside, etc.

I've been having a really tough time sequencing that much movement.

Last week on the course I tried setting up a bit more open to the target line, swinging the club up and inside, and rotating around the center of my chest. I was crushing the ball dead straight. Definitely more of a "swinging in a barrel" feel than what I'm being taught. I think of it as a one-plane swing.

Can't wait for my next lesson, when I tell my instructor that I don't think I want to continue down the 2-pivot road anymore. Will he say, "thanks for paying, I can't help you any more". Or will it be, "OK, let's look at what you feel good doing and try to make it repetitive". I sure hope it's the latter.
