I've been Playing Golf for: 15 years (more seriously for about 6 now)
My current handicap index or average score is: 1.4
My typical ball flight is: high draw
The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: push/pull


Videos:

 

 

I didn't get any head on video yet, plan on doing that in the next couple days.  This is from about a month ago.  Been working on some things on the range, and this is where I am at currently.  Not sure why they didn't upload in slow motion, as they were recorded in slow motion.  I will see if I can figure that out too and get the slo-mo ones posted.  Working on getting more through the ball, keeping my head still and rotating around my spine and following through completely...sometimes I get lazy and instead of following through all the way, I stop which hangs the ball out to the right a bit.  Its a work in progress, this is my second season with a draw swing as I have worked hard with the local PGA Professional to get to where I am at.  Was able to get down to a 3.5 index with a fade swing and couldn't seem to shave any more strokes off, but I feel like there is light at the end of the tunnel and hope to be scratch by the end of this season.

Here is my face on swings at the range today.

High speed video available?

I'd take a look at this. The shaft flashes steep very quickly in the downswing, and you swing left a good bit. Look at where the clubhead is in relation to the ball on the right.

Look at my cap.  I suck compared to you.  Hard to say if this is camera illusion or not,  but it's possible you might be underplane in pic 1 and in pic two the clubface has rolled a LOT.  I don't know if it is relevant or not but here's what I was looking at.

His stance is aligned that way too. Bad camera angle on that one.

Strike one.  Here's strike two maybe.  Clubface really rolled over.

It is. I don't know that it's a priority, but it's tough to say with 30 FPS video. The club and body go from one position to something six feet later on…

I will try to record tomorrow at full speed.  I believe these were all taken with slo mo on my iPhone so it would make sense they are low fps.  It's crazy that you point this out, because it feels like I am swinging out to the right...feel isn't real!!  I will head to the range tomorrow or Thursday if I get time and re-record DTL and see if I can get a better angle and better frame rate. 

Thanks Fellas!
