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

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      39, +4. A bit better hip slide stuff. More lateral, less turn with the hips.

      I added to total today by hopping it in on the first hole for an eagle. A short par 4, I hit 4 wood to 110. With a little breeze in my face I hit a 50 degree gap wedge to 2 feet and watched it hop into the hole for an eagle 2!

      Sounds good. Text me if you have any questions. You have a good setup, too, and so long as you can get good camera angles… you should be good. https://skillest.com/@iacas

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Day 14 (September 18).  Morning practice, despite questionable weather (it's raining).   Worked on chipping at first, including run-ups with UW and PW;  I've noticed lately some of my near-GIRs are missing forward, with nothing but grass ahead of me, but 20-30 yards to the pin.  After a few misadventures putting those lately, I wanted to at least get a feeling for what a 30-yard chip shot that doesn't have the variance of my quarter lob wedge would feel like.  I still think "putt when you can putt" is right, but... I am less sure I have a 30 yard putt in me.  Range time also, of course, same routine as the past week or so (drill, 3-4 slow shots, etc).   Did not get to the putting green as it was starting to come down a bit more. Darn, it really is raining.  And I thought today would be a perfect day to play, seeing as how it's 9-18 and all.
