Edz, I normally take a divot but yes I do tend to angle hinge? But then even with angle hinge, there must be a finish swivel.
Did you mean horizontal hinge rather? Thanks a lot.

The geometry looks good from here.

I thought your back foot looked a tad too relaxed towards, but it is difficult to see in the video how hard your feet are working. Ideally it should work pretty hard until the hands are past the right hip. If you feel that you have more distance in you, maybe you should practice swinging (or is it hitting?) from the feet.

7-17: Halting the Backstroke motion with the Feet and letting this same tension pull the Downstroke through Impact is "swinging from the Feet" and gives the Stroke maximum Swing Radius.

In my personal opinion this is also a requirement for obtaining maximum thrust. It's the ground force that everyone is talking about these days. If you're not doing this already there's at least a club length in engaging the feet properly.

It looked to me like you have a nice motion back, but coming through you are using the right side/shoulder to square up, rather than the straightening right arm with a bent right wrist (passive in the case of swinging, but still very important).

I would focus on horizontal hinge, hitting punch shots and holding the finish at both arms straight to look, look, look. Where is the toe of the club pointing? Is the left wrist flat, right wrist bent?

Stick a comb in your golf glove, it will help you feel the finish swivel as you move past both arms straight with a flat left wrist with partial shots.
