Congrats on picking up the game! First thing I notice is your grip. It is way too strong. Meaning your left hand is too far underneath the club. Here is a link to Padraig Harrington’s video on grip.

Good luck and get some lessons …

▶ this video Your golf grip is important, as is your stance, because of how the golf club is designed. As an instrument there’s not many ways to deliver the club properly.
