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 23: weird day, and only had a little bit of time. Just did mirror work again, working on where the elbow is in the downswing

      I flipped over to this tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it. Anyone else watch? I picked it up during the golf relay event, but seeing these pros out having fun in alternative events was refreshing and entertaining. I’m sure it will be on in reruns in the next week or so, so I won’t spoil the outcome. Im curious what others thought of it. I’m recording it’s later airing to see the beginning.

      Day 37 (17 Dec 25) - nine hole round with my good friend.  We got paired up with a couple of the men’s group regulars as part of their shootout.  Started off with a wonderful quad bogie and then a dbl on three to be six over thru three holes.  Game went 180° over the next five as I shot one under (including a chip in birdie on hole six and four up and down 1 putt pars) for a net finish of five over. What could have been a really tough nine became a solid finish due to staying in the moment and not checking out.  Great day in course management and keeping perspective .
