I was taught to "lift" the right heel off the ground to transfer weight, and I believe this method was the main reason my swing wasn't as effecient as it could be.

With this change, I am aware of the contact my right heel has with the ground when I make impact with the ball.
Ed,

You are working on exactly the right things in exactly the right way. And, you are doing exactly what Homer said to do: Namely, you are focusing your initial efforts toward building an efficient, effective Golfing Machine on the end closest to the the ground...The Feet.

You're well on your way now. Stay with it!
