To anyone that would like to give some constructive criticism, please see below - think this was with a 6i.

Looks just a bit out to in - though that impression tends to be exaggerated by by this camera setup.

Also seems a bit upper body and arms driven, with legs simply reacting. bit more weight shift on the backswing - into the right instep is the standard expression and a bit more drive on the downswing, then in-to-out swing is encouraged - as long as timing can be sorted. Arms need to drop rather than cast.

Looks like a swing that could be pretty consistent as-is though, so changing might cause more trouble than it's worth!

Usual disclaimer - for proper advice GSaP!

Agree with other comment on the posture, but looks not too shabby. Do you have a typical miss that we might look for causes of?

Unrelated, and without wanting to come across too much of a jerk, but you know you can clip your videos so that a swing video isn't 30 seconds long. It's not a go at you, everyone seems to do it. It's the YouTube equivalent of a TL;DR.

Kinda spot on I'd say. I'm not one for putting a load into my shots and swing with what I think is a nice tempo that suits me.

I do slice my driver quite a lot and have noticed when on the range that if I grip my right hand slightly harder than I naturally do and (ensuring the grip stays on the pressure points?) and really attack the ball just before impact my erm, forum fade, does lessen somewhat.

Ian, i'm a biggish slicer with my driver so out-to-in all the way but my irons tend to fade just slightly, sometimes not at all. And sorry about the clip length...First ever time I've uploaded to YouTube!

Cheers peeps.
