I've been Playing Golf for: 35 years (a lot as a teenager, but not much since 2006)

My current handicap index or average score is: 83

My typical ball flight is: Draw, but I hit my share of push slices and pull hooks as well as some small fades

The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: Pull/Hook, Push/Slice, Fat shot & skull with wedges


Videos:

Gap Wedge

I took some lessons about 7 years ago at the Jim Mclean school in Florida and my instructor there had me start doing that as I was not getting much wrist cock on the way back and the club was getting ahead of my hands on the way down (flipping/negative shaft lean at impact).  The plan was to eventually get rid of the pause and make it more of a continuous motion, but I started playing less and got comfortable with the move so I haven`t taken it out yet.

    • Imma throw a dart in the dark as no one can tell what is happening once every fourth iron shot per your OP. This might sound counterintuitive but if ball position is too far back in the stance folks are known to throw down clubhead steeply. Could be happening. And yes, @billchaois not wrong; clubhead tends to bottom out wherever your pressure is. So slide forward (not sway), then hit.
    • Day 300 (!): did a stack session. 
    • Day 24: Missed my weekly round due to a last minute little league makeup game this morning. Managed to get in some backswing rehearsals while grilling sausages for dinner, and then putted around the office/laundry room after dinner.
    • but I don't understand how that's possible you still want your head to stay back you don't want the upper body coming forward and plus I've tried feeling that and it made my fat shots worse and I then tend to pull and sky all my shots especially with driver because I get in front of it dont need force plates to see i finish on my left side
