The core issue is your takeaway move, hands moving 'away' from you right off the bat.

You recover well, and have a really solid move, but you will be 'much' more consistent if you get the first part of your takeaway down.

If you have a copy of Hogan's 5 lessons, look at page 80, top left of the page. That is the area you are off. Your hands move 'away', where Hogan has kept the hands 'inside' the clubhead (no 'lift and turn')

Split grip drills are good for this feel, especially done with the shaft resting on a picnic bench or similar. Just remember to 'trace the plane line', so that you don't get too inside. Imagine a beam of light coming out of the shaft, or another excellent image, that the shaft is a pencil and you 'draw a line', while keeping those hands inside the clubhead per the picture in Hogan's book.

1. Your stroke motion was excellent. 95% would be happy, 98% should be. You are a "swinger." However, your motion needs some "structure."
2. I saw some backstroke rehearsal, but no Impact-fix check?
3. After starting and pausing until my computer crashed to observe various key moving positions, I have the following comments:
* Nice 3/4 top of backswing.
* Loose finish. "Stick it." Watch Tiger and most others.
* From behind, check your arm address positioning from behind vs. Impact. Maybe getting closer to Impact fix at address would be a benefit? In effect, reduce correction motions.
* It appears that there is some throwaway at Impact, at least it is visible when clubhead is 1 foot past Impact. Could not stop the video at closer then one foot before or after closer.
* Half-way down, it appears that the flat left wrist position, as seen from behind, at the top, has turned into a "cupping" condition which requires a correction a Impact. This has to do with "structure." This is usually the result of learning golf early when full strength does not exist. In some ways that is the look of your excellent stroke motion. However, remember that with any repeatitive motion, one teaches the sub-conscious and creates mind/muscle neural network connections that are hard to change/overcome.
* It seems to me that you should have a slightly faster "hip" re-rotation choice onto a straightening left leg just before, at, or after Impact based on what is most natural for you! Maybe none of these can be natural?
* At address your feet and shoulder aim does not match. This is not a problem, but a choice, depending on what plane-line dictates the desired Impact-plane direction.
* I think that the upper legs should touch at the finish indicationing a consistent syroke effort. This is not a requirement only an indicator.

Regards,
sj
