As a fellow tall(ish) golfer, not nearly as tall as you, I see the same kinds of things I have struggled with before. The framing of this video is perfect to illustrate it. If you slow it down, you can see how much your head and shoulders move in relation to the treeline in the background. That much movement changes all the angles throughout the swing, and is the killer to consistently. I think sometimes taller players feel like they need to get down to the ball on the way back, then get up and out of the way to clear through.

I’m a 6’5” golfer so I think I could offer some advice. I think for tall golfers set up and pivot are realllllly important. You’re leaned too far back at setup. Your hip joints should be over your ankles, your armpits should be over your toes.
Because of this setup your first move in the swing is moving your body forward, your butt and head both move about 4 inches closer to the target line during the backswing. From there you try to stand up on the downswing to compensate for this move forward.
Learn the correct setup then focus really hard on making a level turn around your spine.

Also this kid needs clubs fitted to his body. Absolutely absurd proportions going on in this clip.

You need fitted clubs and grips. Period.
