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!!

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 47: simulator day! Played St. Andrew’s and shot a +1. Not bad, especially with having to putt at this simulator set up. Had about 5 minutes at the end to work on some feels as well.

      I think you're saying it's preposterous to think that the areas on this club are anything like what's shown here: 30mm toward the toe or heel loses only 5% distance? Highly, highly doubtful. So a guy who hits the ball there and normally hits the ball about 250… will hit it instead about 238. By missing the sweet spot by about 1.2 inches? Highly, highly doubtful. Heck, the high heel barely gets into the red, and orange is only "up to" 10%! @M2R, I've never heard of "Ask Golf Nut" but I'm dubious of his claims in the video and really, really dubious of what's on his site: "Why AskGolfNut Is the Most Trusted Data-Driven Golf Resource". Hmmmmmm.

      PGA Tour 6 Rule Changes for 2026

      So the question was posed today by some of my friends.  Is a pitch mark the same as a divot?  I thought NO, but they argued if your ball lands in another player's divot (made by club during a swing) this was the same as a pitch mark, i.e. the ball mark made when the ball lands
