Welcome to the site. While your left shoulder could work a little more down on the backswign so the head doesn't move to the right the priority right now is getting more weight forward on the downswing. Work on this feel and rehearse finishing with a balanced finish, not falling back.

I've been working on my song with my driver. Ball out at left toe, good shoulder angle, maintain a good spine angle throughout, swing keeping my weight from coming too far forward. Trying to finish with a reverse C shape at contact. Majority of shots are good with a straight high ball flight. Problem is the bad shot is a high slice (not massive but enough to germs in trouble).

Yes watch that video I shared and also check this out. Turn out that left foot, will allow the left knee to flex forward longer.

Thanks mvmac, I'll try turning my feet out a little and seeing that helps my lower half weight shift. I guess that's what's making my left foot spin out after impact. Question, how does one draw the ball with this swing setup. It feels like there is so little spin on the ball that shaping it will be harder. Jimbo

Just aim your body a little more right. You don't want a lot of spin when it comes to your driver.

A better version of a front on iron swing, should be able to seems weight shift more, especially my upper torso.

Yeah you want to get the weight forward with the lower body while the head is steady for the downswing and early into the followthrough.

    • Day 76 - Pretty sore today, so I opted for putting over my Stack session. Primary focus was on starting line, as my putting has been pretty poor this year. 
    • Been a bit of delay in updates but I needed to come back east as my mom's health has taken a serious turn for the worse. In a 3 day span we learned she had a tumor to she has stage 4 cancer and stopped eating and drinking for the most part. She has had a rough 3 months but certainly didn't think we'd be at the point of setting up hospice for her. My mom was never into any sports really other than following the Red Sox because my dad was a big fan. She always cared about what we were involved in including asking about how golf went.  I have kept up with my 5 minutes of daily practice and will go to the gym here in NH tomorrow morning. Despite the somber nature of this trip my family has commented more than a few times about my weight loss so it's important to me to keep it up. I know my mom always wanted us happy in whatever we did so I'll continue with my fitness journey keeping that in mind. 
    • Day 109- Putting drills on a putting green for 20 minutes. 
    • Day 252: did a stack session. Did some slow rehearsal swings during breaks. 
    • Day 82: 3/18/24 Tried a Stack session but could not certify my warmup. Finished with indoor chips and putting.
