It could also be more of a bending the plane line issue. Sometimes you compensate well and hit it pretty straight, sometimes push, sometimes hook.
If you can get a video up of a 6 iron and a driver I bet the heavy hitters would be willing to weigh in and give you some ideas for what to work on. Otherwise TGM instruction might be what you need at this point.

Been seeing a TGM instructor. And been slowly pulling my game out of the dirt. Had a chat with him last night and he thinks it might be a combo of needing to bend from the hips a bit more and not sweeping. So I will practice that for a bit with some basic motion and see if it pays off.

It seems that everyone just wants a instant fix..........
Is there an instant fix? Of course. But, even an instant fix needs to be done to get it fixed.
It seems that they, for some reason, just can't help not to do it.

"Sustain (Yang/陽) the lag (Yin/陰)" is "the unification of Ying and Yang" (陰陽合一).

Think as a golfer, execute like a robot.
Rotate, twist, spin, turn. Bend the shaft.
It's funny, sometimes when my ball striking is struggling, I'll drop a club and use acquired motion. Seems to assist with getting my in sync.
My problem is a little different from what everyone is describing, right now I'm hitting 7GIR a round and I'm a 9 handicap, although got as low as a 6 last year.
An average 10 handicap hits 3 greens a round, tells you what kind of short game and putting I currently have.

Really? That just don't make sense to me, although I am basing it on Australian handicap.
10 handicap...average 10 over par.
15 missed greens, have to get up and down 5 times and never take more than 3 to get down...also couldn't have a 3 putt on a green you hit...and never have a chip out.
I would have thought 5 GIR would be average?
I am off 8 and average 6-7 GIR...but my short game sucks too...maybe you are right with 3 and I just don't want to admit how bad my short game is!
