I thought these looked pretty good.  Love that you have some forward press at setup.  That should give you the vision to hit down on the ball.  However, it appeared to me that from the face on view that you did not hit down enough on the ball.  It looked like you bottomed out too quickly instead of allowing the club to continue traveling down through and even after the hit.  I see the downswing like a hula hoop where the club head should be traveling down even after the ball is struck, and then the club comes up and left. 

Thanks for the feedback! I definitely don't hit down on the ball nearly enough, I know I need to get my weight more forward and turn my hips more on the downswing. My focus for the last month has been solely on the hips in the backswing, it would be an understatement to say I'm looking forward to working on something else 🙂

I like the hulu hoop analogy.

I haven't posted in a while, I need to just to keep track of my progress.

Last month or so has been a focus on my hands/club at A2, and then the shaft at A3. The goal is to have my hands and the club more in line at A2 (clubhead was previous well inside my hands) and a steeper shaft at A3.

This video is of the step drill I'm currently working on. The goal here is to get more weight forward at impact, as well as more hip turn. Hopefully this shallows out the shaft in the downswing, as well. Not there yet, but I'm happy with the backswing progress.

Golf season is almost here. Got out twice this last weekend...snow this weekend. Hopefully I'll get out regularly soon.

Here's the latest swing I submitted to Evolvr:

Haven’t posted in 5 months, time for an update!

Much happier with my backswing, currently working on shallowing my downswing. Currently experiencing some hip pain that’s setting me back. Has anyone else experienced this?

Been working on a fuller backswing and getting more open at impact. These are moving in the right direction, but there’s still room for improvement.

      My Swing (Ty_Webb)

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      Got told off yesterday for doing full swings and full speed swings so went to the range this lunchtime and did some slow speed stuff and freezers. A few videos from my session.    First few are DTL then some FO This one is of me looking at the club on the way back. I think I get my arms lifting all the way back, not that you’d know because YouTube keeps glitching on me.    Second one is two slow backswings. This glitches the first one but the glitch looks like a pretty good position so I’ll live. Second one works. Then another swing back and hit. When I’m not watching or really focusing on it it seems that my upper arm doesn’t lift at first, rather stays roughly where it is and I add the lift at the end so the club comes a bit more inside. I think that’s what I’m going to focus on. This one glitches a bit too but it’s really just pausing. This shows the club coming a bit more inside but not as laid off at the top Then a couple of face on ones And lastly one smoothie and one freezer at normal speed  Quite happy with how this went. I can see my arms are better when I take it slower. Also while I’m still pitching my arms out it doesn’t seem to be as extreme as yesterday. Light at the end of the tunnel 🙂

      Pablo, you can’t get much safer than cash and a public meetup spot. Don’t know what happened to you there.  Always check their profile to make sure they have either sold stuff, have other things for sale and have a profile that shows they don’t join FB the day before.  Be wary if the price is too low, but those are usually the people who joined 2 days ago and have nothing in their profile .  Craigslist is the place full of scumbags usually.
