don't want to shoot more honor scores?
Anyway, yes, that suggestion is a good one. Getting the ball dropped into the swing sooner will really improve your consistency and leverage. To keep your balance and to keep the ball's position matching your footwork, you have to use a lot of muscle and pull the ball back behind you and into the top of the backswing. I bet you don't even think about this, but your body is smart enough to compensate automatically because, hey, your body doesn't like losing its balance and falling down. If you get the ball moving forward sooner in the pushaway and let it drop with a nice rounded motion, gravity will take over and get the ball behind you earlier in the approach, which will let your body stay much more balanced, and will let the weight of the ball bring your arm back all the way to the top of the backswing early enough that it can naturally drop into the swing. Another big advantage of this -- you'll be less likely to get your swing off-plane, which also improves accuracy.
A great way to get yourself started with this is to practice in front of a mirror. Stand sideways to the mirror so you can see the swing, and just practice doing the first couple steps of your approach, so you can get used to the feeling of the earlier pushaway and dropping the ball into the swing instead of pulling it back. Watch videos of someone like David Ozio, Rick Steelsmith, or Chris Barnes on Youtube to see where the ball is during different parts of the swing for a reference point.
