I'll be here learning from advice directed to you! Maybe we should take up a collection . . . pass the plate!

Oh and another thing too . . . when you address the ball and look down at your hands . . . can you see the grip cap? If so how much all, some or none? Looks like to me you have a pretty turned left hand but you are at Adjusted Address and not Fix so it's hard to say 100%. You put this in the Hitting Section so I would assume you Hit? If so you may want to work on a Fix Address and definitely get your Right Forearm in the Plane of the Clubshaft. If that don't make sense we can talk about the Right Forearm Flying Wedge because you need to become intimate with the RFFW if you are gonna be a hitter.

Also if you do have a turned left hand and you want to keep it that way (10-2-D Grip), you need to understand how to release the club based on your grip type.

Holla Back! Hopefully someone can better address how to get you Tilted because I can't do that myself . . . but you need to do it.

B,
I can barely see the grip cap if at all at address, but I'm curious as to why you ask. Also, I am at adjusted address, and left wrist is usually pretty vertical, not turned. I think the size and shape of my hand has something to do with that illusion. I do hit, and I know that most hitters use a fix address with their right forearm on plane to help maintain the RFFW, but I am much more comfortable with the classic address. I experimented with both when I started hitting and I have had much better luck with the classic address. The very first move back in my motion is me setting my right forearm on plane, which I do pretty consistently. After reading your first comments I went back and watched both videos and I think I make a pretty big sway towards the target with my irons, but not nearly as much of one with my driver. Which may explain why I do take deep divots pretty frequently like you guessed. Let's see if we can't lick these faults. I'm all in with ya' to fix this stuff.
