I cannot seem to get the club on plane right after the takeaway. It seems like my left wrist is getting bowed and then is also bowed at the top of my swing. Any suggestions?

Did someone throw a rock at your cameraman's head right before you hit it?
I would suspect its something in your grip but would like to get a closer look.

Set-up looks good. The club goes out but then quickly gets inside the hands, then lifts. I do this some and get my wrist bowed. Kevin, would Brian's soft draw take away and back and forth help with this?

Keep in mind, a bowed wrist is only an issue if proven to be the root cause of a problem.

Good point. It happens to me because of my first move- club inside the hands. So, the root cause is the take away. I'm working on it, SD and back and forth drill.
Thanks for the replies. What really bugs me about it is the fact that I only do it when I am hitting balls. If I am just making practice swings, I do not do it and the club gets on plane nicely. I thought it had something to do with my grip as well because it used to be very strong, but I have weakened it and even when I weakened my grip, i still did it.

Hands closer was what I thought (I'm not a teacher tho). Around here they call that "pop-out" when the hands go out. You can find some threads about that.
P.S. Practice swings are like that
ok yeah i'll definitley try that. Here is a face on view so my grip could be better seen. Thanks again for all the help!
