I don't think you are over the top at all . . . . what I notice is how much your ass is going toward the target line thru the ball . . . as a reference look at that seam or corner or whatever that is behind your net. YOur booty is basically on that line at address. Now watch as you come thru . . . your butt is coming way away from it . . . goat's fear this move. You need to feel like your ass stays on a wall behind you and your head stays on a wall infront of you. Check out Hogan's ass for refence . . . on the wall . . . no goat humping.

You may even have to feel like your butt is gonna bust thru the wall to get it. So get your left butt cheek way more forward and back against the wall as you transition. Feel much more "into" your left hip joint. If your hips are moving toward the plane line, you can't continue to rotate them. That's gonna stall your pivot and cause cf to take over and get your face rotating faster than it should.

So if you stop your film at impact and compare to Hogan . . . your butt has tucked under you . . . look at your right knee due to your faulty hip motion . . . it has shot out at the ball. Compare how much more forward, ass back and rotated Hogan is in his impact frame. In the next frame notice how you can't see the grip cap and his hands are hidden by his body but the club head is still out. He's taking his wedges around thru the ball. With your next frame you can see the grip cap and your hands . . . cf has taken over because your rotation has stalled.

you could also get an old club and stick a stick in the grip cap make some slow swings at first so you learn to take your wedges down out and forward and then back up and in. Hogan wouldn't get stabbed by the stick . . . but you'd be jabbed hard.

all that being said . . you move your arms REALLY NICE! So work on that pivot and you get much better pictures and results.
