I'm actually hitting the ball really really well right now, but I was struggling a bit earlier in the year in that I was getting a touch long and reverse pivoting, which would cause me to get "stuck" and couldn't get my forearm back down on plane so I was hitting alot of pushes.

I'm working on some stuff right now though, that I'm pretty pumped about and it's allowing me to work it both ways, which is exciting as thats when I know i'm playing my best. Now though, I'm really trying to work on trajectory, which is a bit frustrating.
With my old swing, when I'd swing my best I'd hit about a six yard cut with the driver, but I was too prone to coming across the ball and turning the club over, hitting some monster pull hooks.

It's a change I needed to make, as I was a slave to timing and footwork. Now, if I get through the ball correctly I'm hitting it about a groove higher on the clubface than in the past, pointing to the increased compression you alluded to.
