In addition to Compda's well laid out comments...

Despite some backswing/takeaway issues as noted, you are in a pretty decent position at the top, and are in solid balance, much better than most.

One area to focus on that I think will get you in far better impact and follow through position - lead forearm rotation.

In short, do some range work trying to hook the heck out of the ball - the trick is to always start the ball out to 'right field'. Do whatever you need to to get the 'feel' that the back of your left hand faces the ground past impact.

Some split grip drills should help you get the feel of 'out to right field'.

Once you can hit the big sweep hook, you should be able to 'smooth out' the lead forearm rotation to match the rpm's of your torso - keeping the hands and chest moving through together. The feel of the 'heavy' SWINGING club.

You may also want to read through the references in my signature. A good 'short course' in TGM concepts.
