I've been Playing Golf for: 5 Years

My current handicap index or average score is: Shoot in the 80's or 90's

My typical ball flight is: Straight, slight draw

The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: Working on consistency


At the end of the first two videos are slow motion replays. Drive and Sand Wedge respectively.

Videos:

This next one isn't really much of a swing for analysis, but it is a swing and a miss (lol) followed by a pretty good flop shot.


First of all... a collared shirt and some shorts with a zipper would be a start.

The only thing that my untrained eye spots is that you're a bit quick in the transition at the top with your sand wedge.

I'd love to help but a FO video would be nice.

I think you could hinge your wrists more quickly and let your right elbow feel as if it's folding sooner to let your hands ascend more. You really keep the left arm low across your chest and if you get too inward, it can negatively affect your ability to be consistent because the arc at the ball (in 3D) is much "sharper" as it relates to curve than a slightly more vertical arc.

That's not really how I'd say it in a "lesson" because I'd really want to see the FO video, but if you understand some of that and think it applies, go for it. Otherwise, if it doesn't make sense, I talked a bit too much like an instructor there than I normally would, so just ignore it and consider it "notes for me for the future if you post an FO video." :-)
