Not sure why it didn’t embed for you.

What issues are you seeing? What’s you ball flight? Can you post a face on view?

Thanks!

My miss is a pull, sometimes accompanied with a hook. The other issue is lack of speed and therefore no distance. I'll try to get a face on view later this week.

Far too much around, not enough up. You could use a little of this:

Alright, been doing some work on it. Here’s where I’m at.

6 Iron

4 Hybrid

and...driver. Try not to puke. It’s not pretty. 

Appreciate any input!

If I knew how I would. I’m on my phone, is that the problem?

No. Just change the URLs.

Look, just trying to help you in the sense that… people aren't going to click to visit another site. You want to make it easy for people to view your videos and give you their thoughts. Embed them.

YouTube is currently kinda screwing with this "shorts" URL stuff. So, you have to do a little to work around it.

Thanks for helping me out. I’ll get it right next time.

I see two things here:

1. Face WIDE open and 2. left arm still quite pinned to the chest.

It’s hard to review it at full speed. Slow motion is easier. Looks a bit better but again, it’s hard to tell.

Alright. Will try to send some tonight. Sorry about that.

Appreciate any help here. Would love to get rid of that casting on the downswing.

A good way to work on reducing casting is to start with short swings and rehearse getting the hands to be in front of the ball at impact. Start with chips, then move to 1/4 swings, 1/2 swings and 3/4 swings. Learn to feel that position at impact. Film it to make sure is is working and post it here.

And…

• Post elsewhere a bit. More frequently.
• Add an avatar. 😄

It’s going to be hard with your left knee collapsing at the top of the backswing and falling behind the downswing turn. Basically hips can’t rotate back around in time so arms have to go out and down steeply.
