I've been Playing Golf for: ~5 years

My current handicap index or average score is: 9.0

My typical ball flight is: Small Fade

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

I generally hit the ball on-line, but periodically will struggle with a pull or even pull draw.  My major issue have more to do with lack of distance than directional errors.  For ref, I hit my driver about 240yds and 7-iron 150yds.

Any thoughts or comments will be appreciated

Just a couple more videos, I am working to not get the club inside so much on the early part of my takeaway, although it is seemingly a very tough habit for me to break...

A couple more swing videos (the DL vid is not the best-sorry).

I am working to try and get the club back a little more down the line (as opposed to way inside).  Hopefully this will give me some more room to work the club from inside-out.

A secondary swing thought I am working with now is to slide the hips but keep my upper body behind the ball and release the club.

Both are a work in progress.

As always any comments/critiques are welcome and appreciated.

A suggestion I have for not taking it inside so soon is try to have it feel like you dont see your left arm so soon.

Like in the down the line videos you want to have your left arm hidden behind your right longer.

Thanks very much for the swing thought.  I will work to implement it during the next range session.

A couple videos shot yesterday.

I have had a couple good sessions with my instructor and am seeing improvement in my contact and ball flight.  I am still working hard to take the club away straighter, this is proving to be the most difficult part of the swing changes we are working on currently.

As always and comments are appreciated.

Videos from last weekend.  Working hard to improve posture.

I also need to get my hands a little closer to my body, I am hoping this will allow me to move the club back more down the line and less inside.

Any thoughts or comments on the swing?
