I've played for 20 years and still can't break 80. I want to shoot in the 70s next summer so I'm really trying to improve over the winter, I think I can do it with some help.
I am really struggling with taking the club back. I'm not sure if I should start with my arms or shoulders or what? I am afraid the plane of my golf swing is all wrong too. I have no confidence that I am doing anything right.
I have always struggled with a very ugly shot that start low and right and curves even further to the right. I think I was lagging the hosel. I tamed that shot after seeing a video by Brian that mentions high hands at address and then one that mentions aligning the club face slightly closed at address. Those two things with a slight twist away really helped but I still don't have a swing I trust at all.
There are too many images to post here on Brian's site so below is a link to my web page with my swing sequence, both face on and down the line, with some comments by me. Any help would be so appreciated. If you would like to see the swing in action the videos are at the bottom of the page. The camera angles are a little off. I had my phone prompted up in my golf bag and it didn't work so great, but you can get the idea.

This is a great site with a number of great posters so I know of no better place to get help. I must ask two things of you all though, no laughing (I was really hesitant to do this) and no comments about the bald spot.
