looks really good, the only thing I see is your balance on the follow through, I think you need to get your weight more on your left foot and finish a little straighter up, it's only slightly though. Do you have trouble hitting a draw?

Thank you for the input Delfam.
The 2 driver swings i was trying to hit a high draw which is my problem shot. A draw yes but getting a good ball height is more of a challenge for me going R to L. I will try and post some more videos as i get time for everyone to check out.

This is only the second time i have shared my golf swing on video for others to see.....as you can tell i am getting more and more comfortable about it now



Hope some others will shime in as well


Thanks all

Jim

Anyone else care to take a peak?

[size="2"]I like your swing. At impact you have lost your spine angle a little. You begin to fall away from the ball in your downswing.[/size]

Thats what i noticed as well. I was trying to hit it high and in doing so i tend to fall away to try help it in the air....if that makes any sense.

Great observation and thanks for the input

other than the previously mentioned balance issue, the only thing i see is in the first video it looks like you got everything in front of the ball before impact, thus the launch to the right. Watch the timing, make sure it's staying centered for a tad longer and you'll be flush. Just my opinion.

The "balance" issue that two previous posters have noted is correct, but that is an effect not the cause. The cause, in my opinion, is that you have a too much leg motion in your backswing - especially considering how short and compact your backswing is. Quieting the legs in the backswing will imporve your balance and improve an already solid action. My 2c

Your swing looks very similar to mine, and the advice got is similar as well. I think if you look at your hips they get way closer to the ball on the down swing and thus you have to come out of your stance and loose spine tilt before impact. I think this is called "humping the goat". I've heard and tried the wall drill. But you can also take some swings "sitting" on a stand bag (really just maintain contact with it). The problem that I have found with fixing this fault is that with the longer clubs I have timed my hump pretty good, its with the scoring clubs that is causes the most inconsistency( ie more comfortable off tee to 150 out than 120 in). Hope this helps
