Here's a link to 4 video's of my swing. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. No HUGE problems, just a few bad shots. When they are bad they usually fade off to the right. Thank you!!

I apologize. Here are the photo bucket links. Sorry they are kinda long. I had no one to hold my camera for me and I couldn't figure out how to edit them.

Two things I noticed right away...

You hinge your wrists very early in the backswing... actually it is in the takeaway.

And you backswing is way inside.

However, it looks like you make good contact and have good position at impact, so if it works for you then go for it.

But if you want to get more consistent I would work on taking the club back on a more outside plane and let your wrists naturally hinge.

Just my two cents. Good luck.

You're an 8 index, which is lower than most people on this message board. I think a lot of people refrain from making comments on players that are better than they are, instead we try to learn from you. At least that's what I do.

Personally, it doesn't look to me like the backswing is way inside. Maybe just a little, certainly not as much as many of us. Camera angle on the driver DTL isn't truly DTL so it's hard to tell. It's just a little off to the side. It appears you approach the ball from the inside on the downswing, and I think we all know that is a good thing!

This reminds me that I really need to get my swing on video. I'm hitting my driver better than ever so I want to see if it's just a fluke or if I'm actually doing something right. LOL

    • Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.
    • Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.  
    • Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.
    • Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
