Earlier I divided my golf into:
1) Balance
2) Swing path = hitting square
3) (Legs-hips) + (shoulder-arms) + (wrist) action
I have to practice these elements separately or focus to one element during an exercise. My strategy to play (playing with right side... with not actually thinking about the shots during a swing.) To be able to do this drills must support the development of feeling the movement. It is also important to see some results - to get feedback as soon as possible.
-Drills for balance are easy to evaluate.
-Hitting square needs an impact bag or a box or something
-The three elements are A+B+C are the most interesting to get drills for.
Legs might do with throwing a medicine ball or a hitting a punching bag with my elbow. The movement needs to be the same as in a swing - and I need to feel the outcome. Also it is important to get a lot of repetition. (That makes the movement automated - gets it to "muscle memory".)
The point I am trying to make is - you need to understand what you are doing and why. With drills you can also develop you control of body - and that you need for playing shots in a golf course - it's not always flat like practicing range.
An other important point is to be able to check that you are doing the right thing. Golf swing seems to be very delegate action. You do not want to learn routines that are wrong - it take at least two times of time to unlearn something. (This is way I am little careful about swinging a club with out a target. It's a good thing to do, when you have a good swing. I am learning and do not want to develop a permanent slice by just repeating my own mistakes.)
