Basic and Acquired are fine exercises and lead to extraordinary short games.
But when it gets to Total Motion and the pivot components get in there, that's when the trouble begins.

Train the pivot first. Not hitting it well? Look to pivot. Without a club.

Loren,

I am finding the same thing, work on impact alignments using basic and acquired motion. Those alignments must become ingrained so they happen automatically in total motion. In total motion, work on pivot and think about the three stations, Address, top, finish. It's too difficult to see and feel impact alignments during total motion, and working on them may encourage quitting/steering, and makes it next to impossible to execute a proper finish swivel.

I am really enjoying the simplicity of the MacDonald drills in training my pivot.
