I'd stop rolling the forearms so much on the backswing. Your hands gain no depth and then you're forced to roll late on the downswing (second image) - the club is rolling hard over the top between those frames and swinging well left. That shuts the face so when you shut it a little you get pulls, and when you shut it a lot you get pull-draws.

Thanks for the input! Pulls/pull-draws is exactly what I'm fighting right now, it's more with my driver and slightly with my 3w.

 

Are there any drills that you recommend to help reduce rolling the forearms? When I attempt to do so I feel as if my hands are higher on my backswing, I should video it just to see if I'm doing it correctly
