From what I can tell, that's a good swing. I don't see any flaws other than you moving your head back a little.

I think you need to post a video of your side. That will help me analyze your swing better and give you some good advice.

After reviewing your video again, you also need to extend your arms after impact. You lose control of the ball when you don't extend your arms during your swing. Your arms must be fully extended at all time during your swing.

Shaft parallel to the ground was just the checkpoint, also called A2. http://thesandtrap.com/t/53724/the-ps-positions-in-the-golf-swing

Clubhead is going inside the hands early and then you lift the arms, have to make compensations from there.  Arms/hands have to go inward a little more with feeling little forearm rotation.  The rotation is getting the clubhead low and inside.  Like I said put a tee under your left arm, if the arms go out, the tee will come out and the forearms will rotate too fast.

alright i see what your saying thanks. do you think this would result in a slight pull/hook because thats been my miss the past week. its a pull/hook that is bearable but definitely taking off a few strokes.

Yes if you're are rolling the forearms too much on the backswing, you have to come close to trying and match up that excessive motion on the downswing.  From my experience players will overcompensate and get the face pointing too far the the left, pull.

Good swing. But on impact on your first video, I do see your hands flipping. Make sure your shaft leans forward on impact. You'll compress the ball more and gain more distance.

    • Day 323 - Opposite of yesterday, focusing more on taking a full backswing than anything else.
    • Day 139: worked on putting for a while. Did the two cups drill for bead. 
    • It’s winter here and time hitting at my indoor place.  This year I bought and sold a few sets so I didn’t settle in on anything. For this coming season, starting now I have a choice to make.  What set would you guys use? 1.  Nike Vapor Pro irons - They are like new, hit them some last year before I had to demo other sets.  I love them, original grips, barely used so I’m almost not wanting to use them to keep their value up.  Standard LLL and standard grips. 2. Taylormade P7TW irons - Still in the box.  Got them over a year ago but had too much to hit, never used them.  Have used a set in the past and loved them.  Ended up with my own set custom fit to me -1/4”, 1 degree flat midsize grips.  These are probably not as valuable because they are still available and they are fit to me. I hate to put the Nikes away but it makes more sense to save them than the TW’s…. I dunno…. 
    • Day 215 (3 Dec 24) - Another very chilly day - opted to work on easy pitches in the backyard. Worked thru the irons and wedges - focused on foot position and tempo.
