When im hitting the ball well I tend to 'feel' as if I have almost 50/50 weight distribution at the top but this may be an exaggeration to the previous feeling of having weight outside my right foot
I dont really slide back on the back swing, I still have the weight on the inside of my right foot. I check my swing out on video, the problem comes when I get near the top of my back swing, I will start to fall onto the left and then I dont post up the left leg, which will allow me to come on top of the ball, nor turn my hips left enough.
