I do see a couple things in your swing that can be improved, and I do think that the stack & tilt method is a good fit for you because of the vision problem you mentioned in the info form. Thanks for filling out that form, without knowing about the vision issue, I would have questioned the reason for switching to the stack & tilt.
The first thing to work on is your grip. You should grip the club in the fingers or each hand, and not in the palm of each hand. This is especially true with the left hand. The "V" that's created by the thumb and forefinger should point to your right shoulder. See the attached picture for what your right hand should look like on the club. This allows for maximum flexibility in your wrists & forearms, which helps you to fully release the club which increases the clubhead speed, and also the club to strike the ball squarely. When gripped in the palms, the club tends to stay open at impact causing a slice. The grip isn't the most exciting thing to talk about or work on, but I can't overstate it's importance. Your grip is the main cause of a left to right ball flight. See the attached picture of what your left hand should look like on the club.
Secondly, when using the stack & tilt method, the idea is to keep most of your weight left / forward at address and keep it there during the swing, and finish with all your weight on your left side. You seem to start with your weight balanced between both feet, and don't get all the way to your left side during the follow through. Your weight is actually moving to the right at impact. This causes a large power loss and a large degree of inconsistency. So make sure keep your weight forward at address and during the entire swing.
From down-the-line, make sure your shoulders are square at address. Right now, you're shoulder are open, and this also contributes to a slice ball flight. Also, I'd like to see you move a few inches farther away from the ball and let your arms hang down naturally. This will allow for more room for the arms to swing, and help you release the club better.
Thanks again for submitting the video, and let me know your thoughts. Please email info@fixyourgame.com with questions or comments.
