Craig, as you can see I am still struggling with creating lag and shaft lean at impact.

Hi Craig, as you can see I am still struggling with creating lag and shaft lean at impact. This weekend I have been trying to get more weight shift in my swing as I feel it is lacking in my lead side at impact. I have been making sure that I feel the weight in my right foot at the top of the backswing which I feel gives me more time and space to start the downswing and get into the lead side before impact. Regarding the lack of shaft lean at impact, I have been trying to hit punch shots with the left wrist flat at impact but when it comes to the full swing I really struggle to recreate the feeling and actually end up with fat, high shots with less penetration and distance than I had before.

Hello Lee. You have a lot of lateral motion in the backswing away from the target and you are standing up in the downswing. Here's my suggestion. Film a full lead arm only swing and maintain tush while doing it. See what happens to the lag/lean/positions. Then, let's work from there to build you a drill.
