Damn yeah that's solid. Honestly you might need to consider getting a lesson or two since you're already in such a great place. I have watched SOOOO many video trying to figure things out. I really like this guy. This was the video that really helped me start to rotate properly, but honestly I feel like I learn a lot from all his videos.

Of course. Early extension is when your hips move toward the ball. By feeling weight on your lead heel you have to keep your booty back. Here’s a good video. Like a lot of coaches this guy is a little wordy but there’s a lot of detail and a good drill to work on: ▶ this video

Looks really good for amateur golfer. If you want to go step further you need to practise hip rotation through impact. It takes a lot of mobility. Porzak has great videos about it. fe. ▶ this video Yes, you could stand a bit more away from the ball as well. You get into pretty good plane and its possible to hit good from here but it makes things a bit harder.

You really need to learn how to rotate in the downswing. Your hips and shoulders are completely square at impact and you just throw your hands and arms at the ball. I’ve linked a great video on how your hips are supposed to work. You can find tons of other videos and drills about it. ▶ this video

u/Drewqt 2023 · r/GolfSwing · in “Why do I keep steepening the club on the downswing? I can’t seem to shallow it. If I try on purpose, my hands ”
No doubt. Personally, on my down swing, I try to get my lead hip to match the depth of my right hip, which creates more room for upper body rotation. It's slight, but you're firing your right hip closer to the ball which reduces the room for your arms to rotate through. I like this one because it's a live lesson. Might give you something to relate to. ▶ this video

u/TickBomb 2023 · r/GolfSwing · in “What makes left go straight, but right sails right?”
Your face was open in the right swing. So you have some inconsistencies that are going to drive how well you get to a square face. 1. You are taking the club back with an open face. [imgur.com] 2. Right backswing I actually like more than the left. Left is too flat. The club travels more vertical up your forearm in the right and you have probably relied on being flat to close the open face from your takeaway. You …

u/No_Mongoose_6624 2023 · r/GolfSwing · in “Can’t fix early extension.”
It looks like your weight (pelvis/hips) are moving forward toward the ball during your downswing. When this happens you lose space for your hands and you have to stand up or early extend. Here’s what has helped me. It’s kind of hard to explain the feeling. Try feeling your belt buckle point down towards your left ankle in your downswing. You can also try and feel your right leg staying behind your leg leg for as …

u/AMWood123 2022 · r/GolfSwing · in “Any advice is appreciated.”
Early takeaway looks good but then you need to set the club sooner. Shorten up your backswing a bit and focus on your hip rotation (resist your R hip from moving forward) Lots of videos on this but here’s a starting point. ▶ this video

u/alionandalamb 2024 · r/GolfSwing · in “First post, been playing regularly for a couple months now. Please give me any advice you can”
In your backswing, you need a solid back leg that won't allow your hips to sway backwards, but will allow you to rotate around it. You've got too much hip sway and not enough hip rotation. Hip sway makes it hard for your weight to transfer back to your front foot in your downswing. ▶ this video

u/Insomnium_111 2025 · r/GolfSwing · in “Trail foot extending early - how to fix with effective yet simple drill?”
You’re a little outside on the takeaway. Feel like you’re coming inside more. You try to recover and fire hips too soon. On the downside, feel like your sitting down more and pressure on the right pocket Check out this ▶ this video
