This tip is very appropriate for me at the moment. I have had a short backswing for a while now, and yet I am capable of doing a full backswing. When I am playing, my practice swing is a full backswing but then when I go to hit the ball I shorten it ???? Is that because I am in too much of a hurry to hit the ball ? Or too tight ???
Your practice swing, you are not thinking of hitting the golf ball as there is none to hit, so you are a little too ball conscience when trying to make swing changes. I would start by slowing down and trying to actually do the move with the golf ball in front of you.

As I watched the video, I was thinking about how you might do this inside in the winter. If you had a Liveview camera, for instance, couldn’t you place the camera behind you and the iPad or other video device in front of you and obtain the same information about your backswing?

At set up my hands and club are a couple of inches from my waist at the start of the take away.
On the downswing my hands and end of club move away from my waist a good 4-6 inches while making contact with the ball. How do I get closer to set up alignment to try to match both positions?
Thank you,
This could be from coming over the top, when you come over the top or over the swing plane the hands are usually too far away from you. These are some great tips to watch:
