Shot opens often, but I noticed that it improves a lot, when I don't start with a downswing - I just let my arms drop towards my hip. (So my transition from backswing to downswing is a drop of arms down - not towards the ball, but more just letting my arms relax.) I don't know what happens when I put some effort to the swing.
(I did get a tip, that was to think of a pull from my knee and hip and keep an angle on my hip at the impact moment. It should give more balance?)

Hannu,
everything looks fine, you seem to have the basics, it's just to robotic at the moment, you need to get through the ball with some considerable force this will straighten your shots up, you are pushing the ball right because you are to slow into the ball.

I uploaded a new swing that feels quite good. I think the new swing is something that I will start practicing. It will change after it's automated - and it will come more relaxed or fuild. There is still stiffness. This swing here looks like I don't have any touch - new has something similar- mechanical goldness, but I know that it will come better when I can practice it in warm Spain:-)

Hannu do this flow drill it will help ur swing be effortless but look like its flowing more instead of rigid. Stand in your normal static set up position, Then swing the club forward toward the target just using the arms swing it forward so its about inline with ur left hip then swing from there hitting the ball, maing sure everything is flowing. Its a great drill

Thanks Ricky, that sounds like a good drill. I have been doing a similar one, but so that the the movement starts from hips. Hips start a small back and forward rotation (not a slide) and upper body follows. Club comes last - so at fist club is not moving very much, but after 10 repeats I am in my end position - and very much turned.
So the difference is that your drill starts with hands and mine "ends" in hands moving. I think it could be good to do both - more stimulus for the brain to learn a flowing movement.
