1) Shift into your trail side, you're very stack and tilt.

2) Your back leg straightens at an extremely high rate and needs to be reduced like 300% or so. 

 

There are a lot of good videos on YouTube now that explain the weight shift way better than it was explained 10-15 years ago.

 

I skimmed thru this video only but it looks like it touches on the relevant info for you in regards to the weight shift.

And yea, you probably also need to feel like you're not straightening your back leg much at all on the backswing when you do this new backswing/drift thing. Feel more pressure into the ground or something there to "resist" that. Use video or a good pro to monitor the rate so you don't over-under do it.

Yeah you only get that distance because you swing down so slowly. I know you’re on Evolvr but the arms getting pinned against your chest is definitely a thing that needs work. Turn mostly. Arms d

I’m a god awful public speaker, but I made a short video to hopefully explain that picture a bit better and some things I did to really feel how big the difference is.

Key #1 issue, head is moving too much towards the ball on the backswing Causes some issues on the downswing, makes it hard to get the weight forward and the arms are "behind" the pivot.

      Went back to controlling my knees. That part was getting a bit sloppy when I worked on my backswing. Right hip didn't slide or gain internal rotation. I would just rotate back and around and the left knee would be in a bad spot. Really focusing now on keeping my left knee very stable and straighter in the backswing. I can't go back to the old pattern of overturning the hips. I was returning to my old pattern to time my downswing. Turn forever.  Left knee controls both knees and hips, acting as an anchor. Feel like it straightens a bit.   Hinge sooner and faster. Not in a way that sends the hands out and flips the club over. I still noticed when the hands get to A2.5, the hands would want to flip over and flatten the club out a ton.  Still trying to figure out how to roll the forearms a bit open and not just roll the club inside a ton.  Figure out the timing to get the hands down. Still getting a bit of right elbow collapsing in the downswing because the arms are too high when I turn. Everything is happening sooner now. If the hips are controlled, the backswing is shortened. Because it is shortened I don't know when to get the hands down and I just turn because the downswing is a go.  Very slow (50%) swings are decent.

      Day 207-12 Wider backswing and arm reconnecting in downswing. Did a much better job with proper wrist movements through downswing today.

      Trackman place today. I broke my tripod so could only film by hand the video the venue’s cameras generated. This is an 8 iron. Amazing how odd this feels relative to how it looks. Not similar!
