Homer I watched your 2nd live golf lesson and I have to say I am pretty concerned for your season if you don't make some drastic changes soon. Otherwise I fear it will be the same old same old. Fighting for consistency but will always be in danger of losing the ball right when you really do not want it to go there.
I fear your pro is too nice to you. You really need a tough teacher who will beat better movement into you. Your take away is MILES outside. I know you battled taking it way inside but it has gone far to far the other way now.
You have had plenty of lessons but only now just addressing the over swing. I was glad to see him ask you to resist with your hips. As you said you couldn't physically turn any more when you put in this resistance. Happy days. Work on this. You always wanted less moving parts.
You need to do a pile of slow motion drills on the take away. 10% speed 50% 75% and so on to build up to full speed. Currently you are doing the super slow nicely then revert to type on full speed. The pro is then praising the strike when the swing has gone back to its old self. I will try to post some stills from the swing that got the thumbs up in the video. It is the exact same as plenty of bad ones.
I am by no means an expert but could easily get you swinging much better given an hour or two. I'd enjoy it and wouldn't charge you a bean.
Anyway, things that are quite clear,
Take away miles outside. (keep hands closer to legs. They are moving away from your body)
Happy with resisted lower half. ( will cut down over swing )
Thirdly, no matter what you do with the back swing and position at the top, who cares how you got there, you simply MUST address your down swing sequence. Its completely out of kilter. You need to start the swing from the ground up. YouTube golf down swing sequence.
You could get away with the first two if you had a better down swing sequence allowing you to shallow the club out. You talk about searching for this on the video and seem quite lost I how to achieve it.
You still have plenty of time to work on this before the season starts. You can take it on board and do something about it now or face fighting the same problems all season.
I might not have a PGA cert on my wall, certainly won't get you swinging like adam Scott, but if you work on these things it might give you a fighting chance this season.
