Thanks for all the suggestions. I'm glad that I'm on the right track. I had previously evolved to a strict square stance, believing open stance promotes slices, closed stance promotes draws. Perhaps I wasn't so square before, but with the square stance the last few months coming out of the winter hibernation, something just was not right. I went home for lunch today and sure enough on GC - Lessons from the Pro's was Freddy Couples, mentioned clearing his hips out of the way. I went out to my 'private driving range' (open field next to my house) and hit a bucket of balls and all but 2 would have probably been on the fairway !! I'm feeling good about my driving again and the confidence is showing in my play.
