I see a player of the game list, not an outlier list, what player on the list would be more an outlier than any other player on the list. They're players just like the old woman is a smoker for comparison, that's her game, she smokes. But in what manner does she smoke, how does she hold the smoke, how does she move the smoke, when and how does she finish the smoke. Golfers put a ball into a hole; little old lady puts smoke into her lungs.

Changing dynamics is fine as long as strengths are not weakened when strengthening a weakness.

I never knew that.......

Thanks for the responses on the drills. Has been immediately helpful that past couple of days. Have always felts that getting "wristy" would suck the club back inside too much - but there's definitely a certain blending of the wrists that seems critical. I've previously tried to get there with a rotation of the forearm - but this feels more like wrist action to me.

Here's a video that might help.

The 45/45 drill here is fantastic.

Yeah, rotation of the forearms is much more likely to suck the club inside. Took me years to accept that too.

The Harrington video is good, as is any Faldo type drill, but in this case, the Nike drill is the only one that works long term.

Do it until you can do it.

Learning a musical instrument is do it until you can do it.

Eddie Van Halen didn’t pick up a guitar and start riffing.

There are two hurdles to getting better at golf.

1. Finding the right info to help you improve.

2. Sticking with it until you can do it, regardless of the shirt term success or failure.

Hard to find #1 and people stray from #2 LONG before they’ve got their Sisyphus rock over the hill. Usually they let it go back down the hill less than a 10th of the way up and go look for a smaller rock that will be easier to go up the hill.
