Hi,

Clubhead low on the backswing helps, but hands leading through the stroke is far more important. This is the way to prevent "fat" shots. Move the handle at the same speed as the clubhead.

Do you keep the clubhead close to the ground on the backswing? Sometimes I think about brushing the blades of grass behind the ball to keep clubhead low. If I pick it up, I risk hitting slightly fat and ruining the shot.
