Not here.
This swing is the 'better' of the 2:

You need better lighten. You also need to stand exactly the same distances from the back to get accurate readings. Mark off feet placement.
You're closer to the bag on this 'all forward swing':

Hey mods, I think it’s time for a new sticky. Can you please create a thread where moms and dads can post their swings? That would be fun and create lots positive and productive conversation, LOL

Shawn, what do you want to do with this swing and how can we help, if at all?

I have suggestions but don’t want to be rude in assuming you want them.

I was just wondering how close to a good swing I could get myself, so as to be a better coach. Any swings I post of myself or my students are welcomed to suggestion. I have very thick skin, even thicker than 6 mos ago. Don't worry about offending me.

Pattar,

I don't know how I did it, I didn't change anything although I recorded today at 60 fps. I have a fast and slower swing for you today. You can see the blurring of the barrel and I need to adjust the camera better, cutting a little of the barrel off in the stance and pre-swing.

There are a few things I like better in this swing.

RDbass,

Yes I was thinking to much in the second clip of ABAF. Your very correct, not very good IMO as well.

Yes I was to far away from the bag, made a better adjust today.

Bag is 2 plus feet to far forward on first (better) swing.
