I have found that often a correction in swing can provide immediate results while the player is focused on the change. Maybe even carrying through the season. However, things change over time and sometimes it's the next season that a problem emerges and they don't know why it's not working when they think they're doing everything the same.
Practice is always good. Celebrate the victories and learn from the mistakes.
