> Recently i have been having way to much of an uppercut for my own good. I know that an uppercut is a good thing, but only about 10 or 15 degrees. Are there any drills to help stop too big an uppercut?

The two things I know that can create an uppercut that is bad is 1) not rotating the rear heel up and/or 2) too much lead elbow popping up. If those two things are NOT occuring, it just may mean you need more time on tee/softoss etc...
