After trying out different methods to beat the white ball, I've come back to 'hitting.' I'm getting very good results, but I'm not sure if I'm doing every thing right. I use the video where 'yoda' is demonsrtating with the dowels as my template.
At address I lean the shaft forward, place my left thumb on the right side of the grip, place my right hand over my left thumb, and I try to feel like my right elbow is on plane. My back swing is just a lift of the right forearm. On the downswing, I try to start the club down slow and lazzzy, and use my tricep to beat the ball into the ground. I really have the feeling that I obliterate the target line with the shaft of the club.
Also, I never ground my club;I float the clubhead above the ground. My impact image- at impact the ball spins in the ground like a tire in the mud, and rolls up the club face. My divots actually have this look.

I'm no pro but it sounds like you could be on the right track.Have a look at Ted Forts hitting stroke in the hitters section.If you are close to doing it like that then your not doing too bad!
