I've been Playing Golf for: 10 years - haven't played much in the past 2 years.
My current handicap index or average score is: Last round I shot was 81
My typical ball flight is: Pull
The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: Pull / Pull hook

Hello all, here is my swing, I also put in some of my thought, there is a full slow motion swing right at the end if you want to skip to that. Any tips / swing thoughts are greatly appreciated.

One thing I was working on yesterday was even if my right leg straightens at the top of the backswing, I am trying to keep my hips back instead of letting them come forward, does that make sense?

 

Cant wait for ranged to open back up!

I'm not even sure you can see the ball at A4.

A4 is top of backswing? Do you think keeping left arm straighter would fix that or do you think something is off with my shoulder turn?

Look at the first 5 drills in this thread. Then  10, 12 and 20. 

Also, to answer your left arm question, look at this thread. It is in line with the other drills. We all tend to want to reach back for power, but it can create problems if you go past where your body is stable.

Thanks @boogielicious!

I just finished watching the first video, the early backswing makes sense, going to take my time to go thru the videos you stated.  I like the right palm facing down, I think that will actually help alot.

    • Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.
    • Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.  
    • Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.
    • Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
