My Swing (Namkrats)

[namkrats]

I've been Playing Golf for: 2 years

My current handicap index or average score is: 90

My typical ball flight is: Draw

The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: Block/ cut

Excuse the audio on the driver swing my buddy was excited because we were playing team match play.

This one I caught a little fat

Some DTL footage from today at the range. I'm still working on keeping the hips centred. I tried fanning out the front foot and back foot but felt uncomfortable with the back foot fanned out. However, I still found I was moving off the ball with the square back foot. Should I just suck it up and keep the duck stance or can i maybe improvise something that would allow me to keep my back foot square (other than improving flexibility which I am working on)

Looks much better, more stable with the hands and arms at the top of the backswing.  Regarding the right foot, you're more likely to move off the ball with a square foot.  With the foot flared out, your knees can change flex, which your hips can turn, which means they can stay centered.  It's good that it feels uncomfortable, just means you're making a change.  Just don't flare it more than 20 degrees.

What issues does that cause

Could cause the lower center to move too far forward too fast on the downswing, right shoulder stalls, causing the swing path to be too far out to the right, inconsistent contact.

Here's some caddy view from yesterday
