I've been Playing Golf for: 12 years
My current handicap index or average score is: 12
My typical ball flight is: Pull or Slice with the driver. Cant hit a 3 wood off the deck at all. 
The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: All bad shots. Trying to get my swing on plane and not come over the top. 

Videos: 

Sorry about the terrible video location. Its 22 degrees here right now the ranges are closed.

I have been working on my early extension and over the top move I have had for 12 years.  

I also tend to get flat with my shoulder plane in the back swing. 

I feel like my right hip goes to far back at the top of my back swing but not sure it just looks off.

My goal is to get a good swing that is on plane. 

Thanks for any tips or advice.

Pretty flat shoulder turn… Can you see the ball from here?

Are you left eye dominant?

I'm not sure if I'm left or right eye dominate. 

I can still see the ball.. Only out of my left eye.

      Athletic Motion Golf Video Featuring Our Own Erik Barzeski

      That was a good watch. When I started working on pelvis in the backswing. I thought, this sounds contradictory to those leg straightening threads on the site. Erik has already done a correction. Then the last lesson we went more down the route of feeling the right knee gains flex. It doesn’t, but the feeling keeps my knee position in a good range. Also, I just realized how much extra work my right hip needed to do to stabilize the body with the proper weight shift. Those glute and hip stabilizers got worked. 🤣 I wish this evolution in the golf instruction happened 20 years ago! 😭
