I'm probably not the guy you would want to take swing advice from either, but I'll throw in my two cents worth...

From what I can see in the first video you are more swaying from the ball than turning from it. If you would have more of a should turn instead of the sway, that may get rid of some inconsistent shots...

In the second video you have great balance, but it looks as though you may have rushed the down swing just a touch. My guess is that your misses are left...but I could be way off.

Again...not really the guy for swing tips and I'm just guessing based on what I see...

Otherwise you have a great swing! Get practicing the short game and bring that handicap down some more!!

Driver: 983E 8.5* w/ stock stiff flex shaftIrons: MP60 - 2 through 9 irons (swap out the 2 iron for my three wood at some courses)Wedges: 588 Chrome - 47* Pitching Wedge, 53* Gap Wedge, 56* Sand Wedge MP-T Black Ni - 60* Lob WedgePutter:.....

Overall great looking swing, just i noticed on the first vid that you were done twisting and your club was still coming downwards, which can play a factor with distances. Otherwise great flow i say.

Driver swing:

Strong grip.
Ball too far back for driver.
Upper body moves too much toward target in downswing. Your head is directly over the ball at impact. It should be well behind the ball.
The strong grip is probably necessary because of the other two things.

These are things that are different than what most pros do, but you may not be near as flexible as most pros. So, these things may be necessary for you to hit good shots.

Backswing looks perfect.

My 2 cents.

There's a lot of head movement on your downswing.

Ball position on driver swing is too far back in your stance, move it up a tad to get it maybe just inside your left heel. Also you have an extremely strong grip. That may not be bad for you though, I dont know what your ball flight is like but if you have a problem hooking the ball that could be your answer.

i normally hit a draw off the tee and my misses are mostly hooks, probably the problem

    • Day 1: After a long practice layoff due to injury, vacation, winter darkness, and work stuff, I'm trying to start back up again. Today I just hit balls with keys from my lesson 6-ish weeks ago; neutral grip and centered turn. Gonna work with that for a few weeks, see how it goes, and then get a lesson scheduled.
    • It’s not live on free to air tv in the UK, and hasn’t been since 1995. ( I pay a subscription to Sky for generally good golf coverage). There are limited highlights on the BBC for some golf events, but that’s it. Are other/all PGA events on NBC?  Allowing ticket scalping is a systemic failure across sports and showbiz, which could be legislated against, but in the UK is not in any meaningful way. I don’t know much about the secondary market in the US or anti scalping measures.  Charging more to keep prices down is an interesting concept, in practice no doubt you are right even if It sounds a bit Catch 22  Do you think sports tickets and broadcast rights  should be sold on a purely capitalist basis, or is there an argument to say that some sports might benefit more from wider exposure and affordable access. ( golf in the US is apparently not one of these if tickets sold out at those prices so quickly)  Fans might benefit from cheaper tickets and in the UK at least, TV coverage that reaches a wider audience.
