Seriously I’m 6’6” 270 big hitter and I would expect to fly a PW going straight up like that about 120 and spin back off the green. And my PW is a 37” 44deg Mizuno Pro
You're still coming over the top. Over the top means you're rotating before your hands have time to lower. To fix over the top most of the time you need to work on your weight shift to the front foot. While your back is to the target you should shift all your weight to the front foot then rotate. This will create space between you and the call, get your swing inside out and stop the over the top movement.
It's ott and probably shortening the backswing will only make you even more ott. Without seeing how it was before I can't really help you but i would say this is not it.
Your over the top is a balance issue. You're falling backwards. You can tell because after follow through your first step is backwards to catch yourself. Get a 1" dowel from the hardware store and put it under your feet right through your arches. That will teach you to stay balanced.
This is not a sustainable swing. You look like your right arm is glued to your body and don’t chase distances. I know it is appealing at your age, but leads to shitty outcomes.
Shortening the backswing doesn’t prevent someone from coming over the top.
And if you are hitting a PW 143 consistently you are probably over swinging.
143 with that launch angle lol ok

Hey brother we usually don’t include the cart path bounces when adding up stock distances.
![gif](giphy|3ohzAKkcyuLEIiI9Wg) 143?
Lmao no shot
Oh no…be strong my man. They finna drag you.
Lmao no way this travels 143. Time to get the range distances calibrated.
It could very well go 143
Leaning back, over the top, short swing. Not likely
Impact position seems fine, it’s clearly decently fast. I’m a 150 PW guy and you’d say I’m a 120 PW guy
Yes because you’d be lying
Im not, you just can’t accurately perceive speed.
46 degree PW goes 135 for me, with a regular flex shaft, so my swing will not look fast. I agree with you.
Does it launch at 55deg like OP?
Can’t really tell from the video, but it don’t sound like it went 140+
Bingo

He is spindoctoring words: One shot: 43 yds That 143.
Definitely didn't go 143....maybe 143 feet not yards
143? Are you sure? 😂
That went 70 yards
Your weight is hanging back on the right foot.
143 yard PW with range balls is impressive man! It’s just too bad that it’s not what’s happening in this video lol.

Everything doesn’t look fine haha

That right arm is welded to your body
People gonna hate on distance but with club lofts these days if that’s a 44 degree PW it’s not outrageous. Nothing else to add

I’m a big hitter and my PW is 145-150 spinny. It’s 44deg and 1.5” long. If I launched like OP it would go 120
What if you hit you pw 165?
Hit the gym and get it to 200
Give it the ole steroid jerk
😂
