My first one will just be of my sand wedge approach.  I would upload some more, but the ones I got were hard to see because the wind was blowing so freaking hard out there that no matter what I did, the camera wouldn't stay still.

Anyways, I'm posting this one because I see two things in it that really make me nervous.  You won't be able to tell until the slow-mo part of it, but it's definitely noticeable.  I got the desired result on this shot (if you watch you can see the ball land and roll on the front of the "green").  But this is my typical sand wedge shot from about 30-40 yards.

The two things:

1. My initial takeaway is all sorts of messed up.  It looks like I'm pushing the club to the side and back.  Is this something I should concentrate on immediately or could I survive without spending too much time on in?

2. Pause it at the 20 second mark and you'll see that there is something going on with my wrists....it's weird. Anyone have any idea?

I'm just curious because these are things I don't do with my irons and I've never noticed them before....

And again, sorry for the short video, but as you can see it was windy as anything out there, and there was no way in heck I was gonna be able to set up the camera for a front view.  I'll get it next time.

I'll try to get my driver, 4 iron, and 7 iron up within the next few weeks.  Thanks in advance for the help.

Looks like your a pretty tall guy...  I would copy the setup posture, and positions of this swing:

Setup:  less knee flex, straighter back, weight on the balls of your feet.  Also watch this video:

Post a full swing video... (make sure it's square to your foot line)
