I think you get the clubhead way, way too far behind your hands at the start of the takeaway. I think you get well too far across the line at the top with your hands way too high. Your swing currently requires too much timing given how quickly you rotate the face open and then have to rotate it closed coming down. I think you're not likely to be an accurate player.

Why and how do I think these things? Because I used to suck the club back inside, get across the line, and need good timing too.

I also think YouTube sucks for swing analysis, so who knows what else would be evident with more views and better video.

looks like your hat is crooked

Jmax QL Irons 5-PW (Graphite Stiff Shafts)
X-tour Gap Wedge 52* X-tour Sand Wedge 56* Lob Wedge 60* Rossa Daytona 1 Putter


Yeah... way to inside. When your club should be down the line on the backswing, it is already way behind you and the shaft points what looks to be 45 degrees or more to the right. Hard to tell for sure, but starting and stopping the video showed this in one frame.

First thing I noticed, and I noticed it because I have a tendency to do it too, is that your backswing is very wild and you're more or less whipping the club, so that at the top of your swing you have almost no control over the clubhead. I only watched the first swing though.

In my bag:
'07 Burner (10.5*) Driver
Unknown model 3 & 5 Woods (next to get replaced)
Rescue (21*) Hybrid

ok so work on taking it back more down the line,yay more to work on lol

Your set up looks great. Good posture and your body is well over the ball.

I agree with the rest of the posts though - you take the club back way to far inside which means by the time you get it up you have crossed the line.

Work on a wide take away - keep the clubhead insdie the ball, but outside of your hands.

    • Day 56 - 2024-11-15 Light day. Lots of catch-up work. Checked the grip to make sure I wasn't compensating there, and did a little backswing work.
    • Day 197 (15 Nov 24) - Played in the Friday men’s group outing - blustery conditions in play (wind gusting 10-20; spotty pop up misting rain; temps in the mid 50’s), so it was a good day to work on course management.  Solid round of 83 (41/42) - 7 GIR, total 32 putts - included 10 pars (3 being up and downs), a dbl and triple bogie.  
    • Have been on a mid to low 80’s roll of late - today was no different with an 83 (41 front / 42 back).   Played in the Friday men’s group outing - blustery conditions in play (wind gusting 10-20; spotty pop up misting rain; temps in the mid 50’s), so it was a good day to work on course management, delivering 7 GIR, total 32 putts - included 10 pars (3 being up and downs), a dbl and triple bogie.  Local course starting to get that winter feel - wet areas wetter, thin grass thinner, greens  trickier.
