Hi Jhgould5607
I think Dr Mann is the best person to comment on any non-optimal biomechanics that he might identify in your swing action .
Looks great to me although I noticed that your initial takeaway seems to drift a little outside the ball-target line (I might be wrong) and you have a very strong left hand grip (obviously works for you at 6 hcp).
All your strikes in your videos look straight to me and it looks like you are 'On Plane' from P5-P7, using a 'Drive-Hold' hand release action (ie. clubshaft not bypassing your lead arm by P7.2) which favours a low ROC (Rate Of Closure) of your clubface through impact.
You might have a slight OTT move in transition, so maybe a bit more downward movement required using your shoulder girdle muscles to assist the release of PA#4. Again , I'd just wait for Dr Mann to provide his expert advice.

Thank you for the analysis. I really appreciate it. I've struggled with an OTT move my entire career. Looks like I still have some work to do. Yes, these are straight. It's funny 15-20 shots dead straight (tight draw) on the range, then a little pressure comes in my round and I have a two way miss . Thats golf. I will wait for Dr Mann and in the meantime work on downward movement in the transition.

I will wait for Dr Mann and in the meantime work on downward movement in the transition. I briefly looked at your video and your golf swing looks fundamentally good for a low single digit handicap golfer. You state that you have a tendency to have a two way miss problem under pressure, but the cause cannot be determined from this video where you were hitting the ball straight. For me to accurately diagnose the cause of a non-straight shot, I would need to see a video of that non-straight shot's golf swing action so that I can better determine what's the likely biomechanical cause of the problem. I find it easy to diagnose swing faults when I am playing with a golfer, who manifests a two-way miss problem during the golf round, because I can compare his faulty swing to his regular swing. However, it is impossible for me to diagnose the likely cause of a swing fault if the golfer does not manifest any two-way miss problem during that particular round of golf. If you have a tendency to come OTT at times, then it could be due to the fact that you start the downswing's transition with an upper torso rotation move rather than a pelvic rotation move OR you could start the kinematic sequence correctly with a pelvic rotary motion but you then apply too much swing power with your right shoulder between P4 and P5 causing excessive counterclockwise upper torso rotation to move the left arm too much outwards (towards the ball-target line) inducing an OTT clubshaft action. The right shoulder must move slightly more vertically downplane during the early-mid downswing between P4 and P6 and getting the pelvis more open before the right shoulder moves makes it biomechanically easier for one to acquire right lateral bend and potentially a less-horizontal right shoulder motion. Jeff.
