Watching your swing in slow motion helped me pick up on a few things... there is a lot of motion going on here.

- On the takeaway, it is evident (even from the front) that you are laying the club off and getting your hands a bit too deep and inside. A video from the side would help here.

- As you are making your shoulder turn, your left shoulder is turning your head completely away from the ball. Try keeping your chip up higher at address and allowing the left shoulder to rotate under it.

- Your transition from the top is triggered by a big horizontal move forward with your hips... this is the reason that your swing looks a bit loose and chaotic when comparing it against a tour pro. Read up on "hitting against a firm left side." At impact, your lower body is well ahead of your hands and arms, proper position would be a release of the hips with the head behind the ball and the back of your left hand leading the whole motion through the ball.

Lastly - volvo fan?

    • Day 45 (27 Dec 25) - played at one of the sisters courses to my home course.  Solid session through the bag….of the 7 pars, 4 were up and down 1 putts (wedges were dialed in) from 6’ or less.  Off the tee - solid, irons were consistent even it a bit under on distances.  Course management was on - stayed the course even with a few offline recovery shots required…
    • Day 453 - 2025-12-27 Two things today for about 48 balls (I like to hit three or six balls at a time before taking a small break to pick them up): Right leg stays flexed a bit, internal rotation on the backswing. Kept my eyes looking at the ball and trusted that the backswing was fine.
    • Day 137 12-27 Worked on wider backswing today and tried to remain flowy. Recorded face on and down the line. Swing is looking better but I mentally felt off today, just frustrated. Tomorrow's a new day!
    • Day 8 - 2025-12-27 45 minutes of short game work at local muni, mostly putting work. Trying to get lots of reps in with consistent quality tempo.
    • I guess I'll stay at -16 for this year's challenge.  I never birdied holes 7, 13 (the 2 hardest holes) in 2025.  Also had a couple Eagle putts on the par 5's, but didn't convert either time.  Looking forward to 2026, though!
