Looking for someone that has suffered from taking the club too far inside and is now cured

Oh yeah, I see it now.  You were waaaaay inside on the takeaway at first.  The last video looked really good though.

Thanks TitleistWI. It took me two months hitting 30-60 balls a day (two hours, filming every swing) to make any sort of progress with this move. Seriously, it was awful and I was close to giving up at one stage. I cannot stress enough how much you need to exaggerate the Rickie Fowler backswing in order to more or less align the hands and clubhead at A2. To this day, I still need to work a lot on this piece so I don't fall back into bad habits.

Hey man, no one ever said this game was easy.  Hopefully you can keep up with your practice and not fall into bad habits because your swing looked good in the last video.

I feel your pain on hitting a push.  Its the biggest thing that I struggle with on my swing but like I said, my problem isnt with the takeaway, its with not releasing the club and not shifting my weight properly.  It drives me crazy because, just like with you, were it not for that Id have a great chance to be REALLY good at this game.

My error tends to be a straight-pull or pull-hook as my downswing is still a little over the top and as I am releasing early struggle with a closed clubface. Damn, there is just too much to work on!
