I've watched a few of the sweet spot path 5sk videos and those seem to pertain the most to getting "stuck" in the down swing. I'm pretty good at making real time adjustments swing to swing but one thing I can't get a feel for is getting my rear elbow in front of my hip or at least close to it. 

 

My big thing for my swing thread is focusing on making sure I get unstuck.  I've tried a few different drills on YouTube but I'd rather not spend a lot of time doing a drill that I don't know is effective. 

Any of you have any stuck drills that you feel have helped you?

Not exactly a drill, but start your backswing by swinging out a bit. Think Rick Fowler, or Steve Stricker.  or a whole webpage on it by Jim Waldron "Arm Swing Illusion".

Thought this comparison might help. Notice Jordan's shoulder alignment and especially the hips....
