I think it looks better, and I don't think it flippy. You do take it back awfully inside on the backswing before shifting up, looks off plane. Then you make a pretty large shift down below the elbow plane and looking at your right forearm it looks a tad below the baseline. When you come that far from the inside you are predisposed to hitting it with the hosel. Definitely CF in my opinion.
Which direction do your divots point, out to the right? You stand up a little, maybe because you have shifted a little below the elbow plane?
I am bad a figuring out the fixes but can spot the things I see off in a swing.

My divots range from straight to out to the right yes. So yes that is a CF release out to right field too far underplane correct? I also get impact marks on the club face slightly closer to the hosel than center.

Yea sounds like classic under plane to me, whats interesting is for me I get underplane do to hip slide and drop right shoulder, you actually keep the shoulder very flat with little axis tilt but make that shift below the elbow plane. I would love to offer advice but your problem is more advanced than my knowledge of most hacker faults. I can tell you that you have some good skills if you could get to a good teacher.

Is it reasonable to say that one of the causes of my underplane move is the arms getting sucked super inside on the takeaway?

No, I think you could take it up steep and make that large shift and get below plane. Have you ever tried messing around with getting your elbow into the "pitched" position which is in front of your belly button (or so) rather than stuck behind you, you cant shift so far down and get into that position.

Do you mean Pitch elbow on the downswing? I think I've been trying to do that but it looks more like punch in the photographs. I can mess around with that next time on the range.

Ever try using more right arm in the downswing. About halfway down really give it a good wallop with the right arm/shoulder?

Took two new videos today, more of the same inconsistency, lots of fats and hosel hits, frustrating day. Tried to straighten out the backswing so it wasn't so ridiculously inside A photo album of screenshots; s3.photobucket.com/albums/y77/C_Fusion/Screenshots/

For starters all I would focus on would be getting the right wrist more bent in the backswing, will feel very closed, so the right wrst can be bent at impact. This should help get the right arm folding a little faster as well. On the downswing for now all I would work on is not letting the right knee overflex, will feel like right leg is staying straight in downswing. This will prevent early extension and should improve contact greatly.

iteach, thank you very much for the advice. I will definitely work on those keys next time out.

Mr. Alberts
Thanks for the reply and advice. Is the "not starting downswing with hips" tip and recommendation for "Bennett and Plummer Tilt" at the top related to the left side tilt/lean at the top discussed in the video on your website at 4:25? Also, I'm confused by what you mean by getting the left arm "out" at parallel 5. Thanks for your time
