Should I just continue to hit a hundred or so shots like this into the net every night and then gradually increase the length of my backswing?
Im going to get an Impact Bag, but since Ive always had an OTT issue (round house) I wondered if you guys thought this might help along with the impact bag?

Its designed by Mike Bender a TGM guy. Thanks in advance for your help!
The small swing is called "basic motion". The next step is "acquired motion" and the full swing is called "total motion". Each step adds more components.
In addition to Ben's video, I suggest you go to the free vault and click "On Tour With LBG". In there, you will find John Riegger demonstrating all three stages [
Edit: Watch all of the John Riegger videos] Then go back to the free vault and review all of the lessons with Lynn and Jeff Hull.
As far as the "Insider" is concerned, first let me say that Mike Bender is a good instructor and he has good products. Before you spend the $99, though, you could try something else. In the photo where Mike is demonstrating the insider, imagine that you are in the same position and sighting down the outside of the left forearm. You can imagine that line on the ground. Lay an iron on the ground so that you can see the outside of your forearm in line with the shaft on the ground. Now, if you move down plane, the left arm will start moving on that line. If you go over the top, your left arm will immediately appear on the outside of the shaft on the ground. Try it and see what you think.
