LMAO So true...probably worse if he is like most of us. The practice swing is the only swing I make well.
I watched three of the vids and noticed a couple little nasties you might want to work on. From the driver behind vid, you are coming over the top at the start of your down swing. From the driver wedge front vids, your left elbow is pointed to the target at impact...the elbow should be pointed to the ground and the back of your left hand should be pointed at the target. It is physically impossible to have both pointed at the target unless you over rotate and break the lower arm bones. Some of the pros hit balls with a golf glove tucked under the left arm to keep the elbow in. That's the method taught by Jimmy Ballard.
You are flipping your wedge. You have to keep the hands ahead of the club face with wedges. It was hard to pause the vids exactly where I wanted to, but if you can play them within your own compter through Window Media Player, try setting the speed to as slow as it will let you. Check things are at different points in your swing...right elbow at top of back swing, left elbow and back of left hand at impact. Wrists at impact with the wedge.
Good luck on whatever you are working on...my guess is a push or push slice off the tee and lots of too fat/too thin wedge shots around the green.
