I've been Playing Golf for: several years

My current handicap index or average score is: 15 index, but it's on the rise. Been shooting around 100 lately. For a while I was down to a 12, shooting in the 80s often, but with a flawed swing. I've since been working on fixing it but have been all over the place in the process.

My typical ball flight is: right now I'm so all over the map I don't even have a "typical," but I've always been a slicer

The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: the slice and the compensating pull hook

It seems my swing is different every day these days as I continually tinker and search. These swings below are an 8 iron, trying my best to focus on weigh forward without doing a reverse pivot (that's been a problem for me lately).

The one thing I noticed was that you flip your wrists slightly during impact.

As you can see your left wrist is flipped through impact. I have been working on eliminating the same thing. Try to work on keeping that left wrist firm through impact.

try a steeper take away. your club comes away from the ball to the inside alot which is causing and over the top swing.

The face on video looks like you might be struggling with a one piece take away. One drill my pro showed me was to put a ball down then one about an inch behind it and what i take away focus on pushing that ball straight back. It has helped me tremendously when i tend to get "handsy" with my take away.
