Pivot help needed

[gumper]

Brian (or anyone else),

Can you please tell me which video (commercial, video answer, YouTube show, etc. I have them all) has the most extensive explanation of the proper pivot? Thanks,

P.S.- I am working very hard to make my swing repeatable, especially the radius. My current thought is to have a much more "quiet" lower body. As Brian and Mike both know, I've always picked up my left heel a huge amount. I'm experimenting with keeping my left heel planted and not letting my left knee kick all the way back to my right knee. Does this make sense as a good way to make my swing more repeatable?

Gump, there is nothing wrong with raising your left heel, depending on your own physical "shape"... If that is what is needed for you to attain a good backswing, that is what you should do..
One point that has helped me quite a bit, is to retain a feeling that I have pressure on the ball of my big left toe at the top. This gives a nice tension to the left leg and prevents any feeling (or actual) collapsing or over-shortening of the left side...
