I keep hitting the ball right, sometimes just a little bit, other times it sails way right.
I used to but now rarely hit big hooks.
Here are a few links to swing clips.
Constructive criticism welcome.
I play off 3 and would like to get to scratch.

Your Left Upper Arm is sticking to your body. After impact, your Clubhead outraces your Arms. Then you Bend your Left Wrist. Then you Chicken-wing your Left Arm. In that Order.
All of this is caused by coming out of your Posture. Your Right Hip comes forward, your right knee comes forward, you don't clear your Right Hip.
Unless? Are you trying to Hold the Left Arm against your chest? You are reading too many bad advice posts on other websites. Trying to keep the Left Upper Arm Connected to your Body will force you to come out of your Posture. Incompatible.
Do you notice how the Clubface isn't Closing even though you do a GREAT Job at Low-point having your Left Wrist Fully Uncocked? The Clubface wants to Swivel. But the Arm is tied to your Body Rotation which is preventing your Left Arm from Swiveling past Low-Point.
If you try to Roll your Left Wrist you're only going to become erratic. You can't time the Roll.
The #3 Accumulator Roll (Swivel) is Automatic (unless you use a non-automatic Procedure).
Stay in your Posture so that the Right Elbow Clears the Hip during the Downstroke.
Zone 2 is related but also independent of Zone 1.
A Straight Line Delivery Path would help but your Single Shift isn't the problem. Great Backstroke by-the-way.
The #3 Accumulator WILL ROLL if your Left Wrist is Uncocked at Low-point and your Left Arm and Clubshaft remain a Primary Lever, which can only happen if your Right Elbow can get into a Pitch Position and Your Left Arm is allowed to move away from your Torso with the Power Package.
Look at Moe Norman, not Ben Hogan.
Hey GPSTYLES, you have a great Swing (except for the problems, but they're minor fixes at your ability). I give it 4 Yodas.
Thank you Daryl for that thorough analysis, dare I hope the green one himself posts his thoughts?
Daryl, after I watched the clips back I spotted the chicken winging myself.
I can categorically state that it is not my intention to hold the left arm against my chest.
With regards to the fix:
Do you mean the 'hula-hula' to make room?
Should I work on achieving both arms straight?
Thank you for taking the time to analyse.
I welcome any other thoughts that correspond/disagree with Daryl's view.

I feel a little silly jumping in after Daryl's wonderful analysis...
It looks to me as though you are trying to set up with your right forearm on plane, which I really like. Just before you take it back you look like you straighten the right elbow which gets the right forearm off plane, and opens your shoulders.
I would ask you to keep the right arm a little softer, and the right elbow/forearm lower than the left at address. I believe that will square your shoulders and help you get back to that little draw.
This of course along with Daryl's advise!
Please keep us updated. You have a beautiful G.O.L.F. swing.

Kev, you are a Pro. Daryl and I are Moe's. And not of the Moe Norman variety. More like Curly, Moe and Shemp. Mike O is Shemp, Bucket is.............
I was expecting to see a left wrist bow at impact but instead I found these impact alignments..........wow. Take a look at Lukes avatar to compare. Nice.
The push in our circles is an open clubface thing not a clubpath thing. Hard to see where the clubface is here. Im wondering if you get your left hand grip set at Impact Fix properly? Perhaps its that easy. With nice alignments like these at impact, a square face at adjusted will turn into an open face at impact.
PS My older brother, John , aka The Judge is currently galavanting his way across the Emerald Isle, one golf course at a time. He is normally in the woods on the right side too. If you see him say Hi for me. He is at Lahinch today, you might see him, dont think there are any trees at Lahinch.
PSS If thats the green behind your trolly you do seem pointed a bit right too............Daryl just asked me to pass this along.

So let er rip.
True, I am a pro, but you are the guys who understand the mechanics of the machine. I have always been more of a "coach" than a "technician." I have been lucky enough to have some success as a player and as a coach, but now that I need to make a living teaching, I better become proficient in both areas.
I feel TGM is THE way. I believe in it. Yoda is THE MASTER of TGM IMHO. You guys are MASTERS of relating the things that he would teach us himself if time permitted.
You guys are THE BEST, and I can't tell you how much I appreciate all your help.
To finish my coaching / technician story. I found that from personal experience once you lose what once was a "natural" motion, you had better be a "technician" or you WILL NOT get it back. TGM has allowed me to get some of it back, now I have to get really carried away with something silly, exersize and stretching.OH MY GOD, THE HUMANITY!

6-B-3-0 THE THIRD POWER ACCUMULATOR Power Accumulator #3 is formed by the angle established between the Clubshaft and the Left Forearm. Accumulator #3 should never be “Out-of-Line – instead, it seeks to MAINTAIN its radial alignment with the Left Arm and Left Wrist vertical to its associated Plane. So, basically, Accumulator #3 Hand Motion (4-D-0) is “Clubface Control,” “Rhythm Control,” and “Roll Power Control” of the Right Elbow (7-3). Study 2-G and 7-20.
[*]Stay in your Posture so that the Right Elbow Clears the Hip during the Downstroke.
Daryl,
How would you recommend going about staying in your posture? How does waist bend alter impact conditions? Why does coming out of your posture prevent tilting the axis and clearing the right hip. I know it does but I lack an effective book-based description.
OH MY GOD, THE HUMANITY!
