NP! I often struggle wit the same thing and even find myself stepping my trail foot through on actual swings on the course just to get my body to shift my weight so I don't thin or fat it. The video below is the drill I have been doing recently to get me to compress the ball better. ▶ this video

1. As you mentioned, left arm breaks down towards the end of your backswing. A feel that helps some people is feeling like you are pushing down/away on the handle with your right hand during the backswing. 2. You need to transfer your pressure/weight better. You are hanging back on your right foot pretty much the entire swing. You need to get your weight/pressure onto your lead side during the downswing and follow …

Before tinkering with the grip (but definitely a more knuckles showing on left hand) work on having weight on lead foot after completing the follow through. Do some step through drills: ▶ this video

I agree with the first comment, but I would also add that you need to get the right feel and then you’ll understand how to transfer your weight properly which begins with the proper weight distribution. There’s a drill you should be able to find on the internet where you take a step through your follow through which ensures proper weight transition. Here’s one such lesson. ▶ this video

Not a full weight shift forward, you’re hanging back on your right foot too much. Try this drill: ▶ this video

Easiest drill to get you on your front side: Stand with most of your weight on your front foot. Hit chips and pitcheslike that for a while. Focus on square contact doing that. Then, take some "slowed down" full swings, and "step through" at the end of the swing. ▶ this video This will get you to feel what finishing on your front side feels like.

Try to be facing the target when you finish your swing. One drill that can help is literally take a step toward the target with your right foot as you finish like this: ▶ this video
