Today I found a possible drill for this... if you grab a few of your longer clubs and hold them in the middle and swing you will see what I mean... try to make the clubs not hit you in the shoulder

Is this similar to using a broomstick?

would imagine this is length dictacted and not object orientated, so yes

I use a similar drill where but instead place a alignment stick into the end of the grip, allows you to grip the club normally.

Ok, so maintaining the flying wedge is something in working on. I found this video on YouTube and found it informative, BUT I am confused. He shows that at impact your shoulder are open quite a bit. I was always under the assumption that your shoulders should be square to the target line at impact. Can anyone shed any light on this? Thanks!

The shoulders should not be open that much, he may be doing that for the drill. The right shoulder drop's down and out while the left go's back and up. I have seen 100's of DTL swings of pro's and they are pretty square to slightly open at impact.
