Down the line. One swing. A little different hitting practice balls in the back yard and I don’t hit worth a damn until the 4th hole anyway, but here’s the gist of it. Actually felt on plane and square here, am I off base? Spine angle probably needs some work. What else?

I’m not a golf professional.

You may be a somewhat over the top, but it’s not horrible.
You create better lag than I do.

Not a professional so someone else can weigh in but it looks like your hips are out pacing the club and the face is slightly open as well on the start of the downswing with your wrist a little cupped at the top.

All of these are issues I struggle with as a former baseball player as well (so maybe I am just seeing my own issues).

Your flat shoulder turn in transition is slinging the club out over the plane.

Get a club and a wall. Get in your setup with your arse about a foot from the wall and swing to the top. Slowly transition, and try to drag the clubhead down the wall for about a foot before it finally comes off the wall. This should help.

If you’ll watch some pros slow motion you’ll see that in transition the clubhead actually works down and behind the golfer and away from the target to start the downswing. That’s how they shallow the swing and attack the ball from the inside.

Compare where you and Rory differ. Same spot in downswing. Look at his clubhead and hands then look at yours.
