Any ideas or drills that i could work on?

I don't have a good video from the range but i've attached one i took in the back yard without a ball.

Sounds like too much "lag" to be sustained.

The more the shaft stressed (effective weight), the tougher for it to be maintained, due to gravity, the stressed shaft and your subconcious "hacking" intent.

YOU load and sustain the "LAG", during which the "LAW" releases it, ideally beyond impact.
"Sustain (Yang/陽) the lag (Yin/陰)" is "the unification of Ying and Yang" (陰陽合一).
The "LAW" creates the "effect", which is the "motion" or "feel", with the "cause", which is the "intent" or "command".
"Lag" is the secret of golf, passion is the secret of life.
Think as a golfer, execute like a robot.
Rotate, twist, spin, turn.
Bend the shaft.
