This may not be for you, but I'd recommend you try it for a bucket of range balls and see if it works for you or not. If it doesn't work for you, all you've lost is an hour and the price of a bucket of balls. Not a big deal, and well worth if to at least give a try.

Good advice. The caution is that some people truncate their backswing turn when they set early. But if they can make an early set AND make a full shoulder turn, it is good fundamentals. Many great golfers set their wrist on the way down--basically "leaving the club behind" as they downswung-- Byron Nelson, Jack Nicklaus, et. al. But other greats set them early. The only thing that matters is the wrists do set fully and the shoulders do turn fully.
