    Congrats on starting your golf journey. It can be really difficult so keep that in mind. I’ll just put out some brief pointers but I recommend you get lessons.
    1. Overswing: You only need to take the club back to 75% as far as you take it back. The feel for this is that when you have taken it back you’re back is aiming at the target and no more.
    2. Weak wrists: You shouldn’t have that much bend in your wrists. This is something I am also working on and believe me it can be tricky. What I’m trying to do is get the club to be parallel to the ground by the time I take it up to between my shoulders and the groundZ
    3: Weight transfer: You need to make sure your weight is going from your back right heel at the top of the backswing, before going to the front left heel at the end of the swing.
    I understand how difficult it is for you to learn golf and believe me my swing was even worse when I started. Please keep it up and I promise you, you will have an amazing time.
    I would recommend either lessons or if your a bit tight for cash as I was when I started to get the 18 birdies app. They have a lot of good material for learning a golf swing and I think it will help you a lot. Either way if you have any questions I’ll be happy to help you any way I can. At the end of the day I’m only a 15 handicap so I’m not amazing but I can defiantly show you the basics.

    A couple of general tips.

    Don’t stand up in the backswing.

    Stop the backswing when the club is parallel to the ground.

    Swing out towards the target, not across the ball to the left.

    Finish with your hands above your head.

    Lessons from a golf professional to learn the correct basics of the swing will save months of horrible golf.
