Todd,

When you practice, are you practicing a full swing with a ball?

You can practice metally and you can also practice very small pieces of the swing. Visualise what you are trying to accomplish. Watch tapes of proper technique, compare your own videos and find out exactly where you need to work on. It is proven that just running through the processes in your mind's eye causes very small triggers in the muscles that will help you get your hip turn.

Also, practice a trigger to get you from the top of the back swing down to where the club is parallel and your right elbow is on your right hip. This is the most powerful move in golf. I spend about 5 minutes a day going back and forth between those two positions.
