I've been Playing Golf for: 6 yrs
My current handicap index or average score is: Don't have a handicap, but generally shoot between 80-90
My typical ball flight is: Typically reliably straight from wedges through 8 iron. Starting at 7 iron and longer, I feel my swing is a little too steep to be reliable. Often hook my 21* hybrid.  Driver misses are generally pushed to the right.
The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: Fat iron shots, driver push/slices.

The big thing I see when watching my video is that I'm a little across the line at the top and then steep coming down - would love to shallow this out. Could probably shorten the swing a little too!

Thanks in advance for the help! I'm committing a lot of time the next few months to make improvements to my swing and work on it daily.

@airlyss, the above videos don't appear to be live, at least for me.

Thanks!

You won't be able to edit your OP. If you changed the privacy of the videos or something on YouTube, you'll have to just change the privacy settings back to Public or Unlisted.

    • Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.
    • Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.  
    • Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.
    • Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
