There's a few issues there, some things to work on:

The most obvious flaw there is that you're starting the downswing by throwing the club at the ball, and coming over the top. You'll notice that all good players start their downswing by first moving their hips towards the target, then turning them and allowing the arms and hands to follow, coming more from the inside. Your head is also moving toward the target quite noticably on the downswing, you should try to keep it centered over the ball. There's also flipping at impact as you're losing the angle between the shaft and your arms on the way down. You should feel like your hands are way ahead of the clubhead at impact.

Just a few things that I see at least. Some of the head honchos here should be able to give you better/more detailed advice.

A great shot is when you go for it and pull it off. A smart shot is when you don't have the guts to try it. ~ Phil Mickelson.

- half swings
- hips forward earlier, longer

As I said in your video you've got a lot of good things going on, and these aren't the toughest of first pieces, so I look forward to your next videos and your progress.

Welcome aboard kilbyman. We've had a lot of success with evolvr and look forward to making you the next success story!

I practiced these things today... and I noticed two things immediately... more piercing, longer ball flight, and I could see the ball the whole time because I didn't overdo the backswing quite as badly. I also tried to keep the takeaway more square to the plane... and this paid huge dividends with the woods. Finally figured out why those clubs have given me weak pushes... now they start straight! Woohoo!

    • You all are right, its not that big of an issue, I'll leave it alone, especially after looking at that picture of Tigers beat up putter. But I also noticed the small circle worn on the sweet-spot where he hits it every time, I definitely don't have one of those. Thanks for the replies   
    • Committing to one brand of ball this year - Snell MTB Prime X, the 5 doz. pack. Like how they perform for me. At $18/doz., can live with cover scuffing. Iron regripping with GolfPrice MCC+4 Teams std. in red/navy. May be retiring Odyssey Dual Force after 30 yrs. Seems like I can't get it to the hole anymore. Kind of light and has lots of toe hang. My reg. group's hounding finally wore me down.    From Callaway preowned - trying out the Odyssey Tri-Hot 5K in double wide (less toe hang) and triple wide (face balanced). Both also noticeably heavier...we shall see.  
    • WOW, it looks like he has been hitting stones with that putter to put all of those nicks into it.  I can't see how a ball would cause many those dings.
    • I'm fighting a knee as well as a foot so I "Feel your pain".  Luckily for me the PT is helping at this time and I am hoping knee surgery is not imminent.  Best of luck to you.
