Do you lead leg post with heel or balls of the feet?

60/9i(?)/7i

Ive recently been trying to sling the arm structure underneath me in the downswing. The resulting lower body movement seems to be an aggressive leg straightening. It seems that depending on how i load the trail side, I either seem to be posting up against my heels or the balls of my feet. Whats the correct answer feel? (or neither)

Does this lower body action look right?

Realizing I’ve probably never had a square club face at impact

Could my open club face at impact be related to the poor lead shoulder movement through impact? It looks like im working the lead shoulder up instead of around and thats preventing my forearms from rotating enough at impact to naturally square the face.

Why are my hips spinning out?

Im two months in, got my first lesson on the books for July. I’m trying to have a fundamentally sound swing by then.

I for the life of me cannot figure out the lateral shift. My guess is it has to do with the backswing. Its killing my swing becausw i’ve got to early extend to get the clubhead to the ball since my hips arent clearing and just spinning out (I think).

Any tips or criticism are welcome.

1 month in, cant get in the slot

I dont quite understand what lowering the arms into the slot is supposed to feel like. Im also not understanding the timing. At what point in the downswing should I feel like im rotating my hips and stopping the lateral movement? I feel like im pulling up with my shoulders and especially not dipping down with my trail shoulder. i feel like this is my body compensating because it thinks im going to hit the ground if I don’t.
