Anyways Your back is straight at the beginning of you backswing but you are hunched comming down and when you are making contact with the ball. Place the ball more in the center of your stance, that could help as it looks as though you are "pushing" the ball, meaning your hands should have cocked back to square at contact, whereas yours havent made it to that point causing your club face to be slightly open. Best way to expalin it... think baseball. A batter wants to hit the ball straight to center field, he will make contact with the ball with his hands coming back to square causing the ball to go to center field. if the batter wants to hit it to right field, he will make contact with the ball with his hands ahead of the bat, directing the ball to right field. if the batter wants to go to left field he will put the bat ahead of his body and hands directing it to left field. Same stuff sorta applies to golf in that perspective. Center the ball in your stance, keep your back straight, Slow down your swing to the point where you'll yawn its so slow... even if you do a full swing and it goes 50 yards but straight thats better than 150 and out of bounds. this way you can see and feel things happen better. Also keep your eye on the ball. Best way to do this is to stare at the ball and after contact is made and your are going through with your follow through let your right shoulder catch your chin and then look up... this way your eyes will be focused on the your ball until contact and a bit after. If you slow your swing down it will be easy to do this because you are able to focus alot more on what is happening. Once you feel more comfortable speed it up bit by bit using those same techniques and eventually the basics will be second nature. You should be directing where the ball is going not just swing and pray for a good shot. A good golfer will direct the ball where they want it to. You can try the "baseball" thing i described at the range to prove a point. If you want to hit a straight shot make sure everything is square at contact, if you want to play a slice or fade make contact with your grip/hands ahead of the club, hook or draw contact the ball with your hands/grip behind the ball. Try it and let me know if it works. It did for me.

Hey thanks for the reply. This is the only shot I had for my follow thru. This is more of a finish tho haha.. probably useless.
I know I have to have my club and everything back to address position when I make contact with the ball. I will focus more on it tho. Also I will try to slow my club head speed down and focus on hitting the ball square and then gradually increase my speed. I'm going golfing saturday morning tho w.out my 8 iron!! fackkkk I gotta get that head back on lol maybe I can get it done somewhere tomorrow.
Thanks for your help and suggestions.
