Have bad posture due to back injury working on that.  Also the hips aren't clearing very well at impact position so that's what I'm working on at the moment.  Go easy lads haha

I've been Playing Golf for: 30 years
My current handicap index or average score is: 6.8
My typical ball flight is: fade with driver draw with irons
The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: fade with driver


Videos: 

 

 


Of the many issues I just don't know which one to concentrate on first,  find myself doing a couple at once.(and thus not really fixing anything)   I'm thinking clearing hips more at impact position is my first fix but not sure which issue is the main one I should start with.  Please help.

Neither is a swing. They're just practice swings, with no ball.

Sorry dude,  I've got this one from the range. 

Will get some better ones once I get home from work in a few weeks.

It is tough to tell from that angle. For the down-the-line view, have the camera aimed along your toe line. This way your swing can be seen at different points. A face on will help with looking at your hip position.

Here's the latest one.  Think the posture is better and trying to clear hips at impact more.   Going to get some lessons after new year but any advice would be welcome.  Please forgive me for the music used video editor on my phone for the first time...  Instant regret haha

Cheers

 


This is a 4 iron with a slow motion and full speed on the same shot.  Starting ball over bunker on left and finished in middle of green.    Been hitting a fade 4/5 times which I don't mind but the 1/5 shot is a start left then turns even more left which is killing the confidence as it's so destructive at times to a decent score.  Not sure what to do?? 

 


Help?  Anybody?  Lol.   Game is all the place since changing posture and hips.  Have any of you tried to get everything more on plane,  as in the one plane swing?  If so just how do you do it and can you explain it to me,  I think Im taking it away to much on the inside then coming  over the top  causing the fade?

The camera angles could certainly be better. I don't see a face-on video, either, and it's important to get both views when working on things so you can see what's truly going on in three dimensions.
