lower body.....

I wanted to ask the opinion of you all about your lower body movement. I have normally had an active lower body but it took me a while to understand that this may be the cause of my inconsistency. So I took a look at some pro swings, ernie in particular and noticed that his hips don't start turning until the club is parallel to the ground. And since working on this new move I have been more consistent. It feels a little weird at first but I think I am getting it down. Do you guys think this is a good move?

I believe that the lower body starts a fraction ahead of the arm swing, but I want my hips as square to the ball as I am able at impact. My weight will be slighty toward my front foot and my back foot flat on the ground. A lot of problems come from too much body rotation on the downswing.

As my arms swing back, my hips and weight turn to load my right leg...really trying to concentrate on weight staying on the inside of my right foot...then visualize my spine angle/upper body swiveling/coiling around my right leg....for me, then hips trigger the swing....hope this is the right sequence...any thoughts?
