I’m working on the same thing and these two videos really helped me. For me, in the downswing it was about getting the palm of the right hand pointing more towards the sky, almost like you’re holding a tray. However this causes the face to be open, so before impact you have to close the face by turning the left wrist down. Which felt weird at first compared to the OTT whack but my shots have a nice draw and contact …

I’m a hack, so take this for way it’s worth. I don’t know if that’s the issue, but it is for me. I found a drill that helped me a ton. I don’t know what did it, but it helped me realize what I was doing wrong and how to correct it. I don’t know if this guy is any good, an idiot, or solid but I like his lessons.

▶ this video This video explains it pretty well. I would literally start by taking your club at around hip level and swinging from that point. You'd be surprised at how much power you can still generate in that position. Then the goal is to continue to lengthen your backswing, but try to get in the "slot" before you exert your power. If you start your power at the top of your backswing with your hands high, your …

Well you’re swinging from the wrong side for starters… (Kidding) The reason your miss is a push is because of a shallow takeaway into a steep downswing. Ideally you want to do the opposite, more straight away on your backswing and shallow on your downswing. ▶ this video

Swing looks really good, the only thing I can see is it looks steep, work on shallowing out that swing. ▶ this video
