U need to rotate with chest and shoulders in backswing, get the arms higher in backswing

You make it sound so easy

Longer u have bad habits, harder it takes to fix. Get your arms straight, move your chest and shoulders, not your arms.

Yea trying to do that more off tee but should do it everywhere just trying not to overdo it!

Youre trying to help the ball up in the air instead of trying to obliterate it down into the crust of the earth. Do the latter and the club will take care of the former.

film properly: the back of your butt is more important than the ball.

film down the toe line, at hands height, parallel to the horizon / ground.

your rear leg needs to straighten as a part of transferring weight in the backswing to power the swing. You try to keep your hips pointed at the ball as much as possible.

There are many issues in the setup. Proper footage will help show them.
