Screw the stack and tilt. Find the slot instead. The Slot Swing by Jim McClean. It's a 2 plane principal. I play to a 4 HCP and was a 9 Playing a 1 plane swing before switching to the Slot Swing. To me I can feel the plane better, and am able to feel the club flatten in the downswing attacking the ball. If you record golf and slow motion most pro swings, they are some form of a 2 plane Slot Swing with the club being on a more vertical plane at the top of the backswing.

I agree with the previous poster. If you want to get better, increase your ability on the short game and putting.

No experience with the Stack and Tilt, but I recently made a swing change on the advice of a respected golf pro in the area. Got the advice of a swing change when getting fitted for new Pings. Found out I should've been a black dot (standard lie) instead of the orange dot (2* flat) Ive been playing for 15+ years.

Anyway dont make major swing changes until you are ready to put in the practice and have someone to guide you through the process. I havent had the time to practice or gotten a lesson with him and ive been pretty frustrated lately with the game. when i hit it clean i gain the extra 20 yards or so that the new swing gives me plus with better accuracy but the clean hits are few are far between.

just a thought before you decide on a swing overhaul. btw im a 15 hcp and suck at putting but can always hit the ball on roughly the same spot of the club face every time. (use a dry erase marker to paint your club face and you have a cheaper alternative to impact tape)
