Watch this video, practice a dry swing tens of times, and get a range session before going in if possible. You're releasing the ball too early and gonna surffer from fat shots. If u get this correctly, it's going to make a HUGE difference in your swing ▶ this video

▶ this video ▶ this video ▶ this video all 3 of these are very good videos on the release of the club. the first one is a little "salesy" but has good info if you look past it. The last one kinda gets into the weeds since the twist and throw release depends on a lot of factors like grip and wrist conditions but using either is better than none at all.

No wrist rotation in your downswing, leading to an open club face on contact. ▶ this video

The problem is more likely your swing than your grip if it's that open. If you're not actively closing the face throughout the down swing and follow through, it's going to be open and you'll be fighting to sync your hips with it. Try this, and check your face position throughout the swing, not just at address and impact: ▶ this video
