As I look at old videos of my swing it's actually apparent that my shoulder turn was not too flat.
I have five keys for the swing:
1) Take the club away with both hands
2) Maintain my spine angle
3) Maintain knee flex
4) Start the downswing with my hips
5) Post on my front leg to make sure I get through the shot
It's usually a fool's errand to **** with the essential nature of your swing. I tried it four years ago to the same kind of disastrous results. My only hope is that I get back to where I was before in the next month or so.

When you start making rather big changes, things get really tricky. I'm not a huge fan of any swing plane, body plane changes like you were talking about because as you've found, they're just really hard to do and hard to get iingrained.
