any tips on getting the right feel of loosening the hips? i am trying to get the right feeling, but something just seems off when i try it. 

I would do backswing work with a mirror. You can look back and see if your hips are opening. For you it might feel a lot like your right hip is being pull behind you. Almost like someone is yanking on your right pocket. 

 

this is great. will have to buy a mirror then. 

also is it possible to have too much hip rotation? how do i know how far i should let my hips open? that might be a feel thing as well and be individual golfer dependent.

Yes. It depends on the person, though.

i figured as much. will have to work on the optimal hip rotation for myself then. i am a young guy so i can get the hips moving if i need to. despite a little bit of flexibility issues in the past, weekly yoga has been fixing that.

One other thing that i realized last night was that i had a very unsolid base when i was swinging and this was causing a huge loss of power, and the feeling that i had to overswing to get enough power on the ball. 

what was not evident in these swings but i found i was doing a lot, was that i would start to roll my left foot over during my swing and it would cause all sort of issues with pulling, loss of a strong base, loss of balance and and in effect losing power in my swing.

I was really focusing on a solid base, connecting my feet to the mat as i was swinging and felt much more power, balance and consistency coming out of my swing. it was great!
