I personally despise barre chords but I do use them at times. The only

Which seven chords are those? Maybe we can help...

Huh? 7th's -dom7's. 7th's.

Don't need help - just mentioned to the OP that they are still tough
for me. But I've switched to jazz voicings for those shapes as opposed
to the full 6 or 5 string full barres.
