@Ronald Burkholder. l've been working diligently on Lesson 2.8. I know I'm making progress from reviewing videos I've been making! I would love any and all feedback from you and others on what you can see. Thanks! I appreciate it!

@David , you appear to be a little scrunched up. Lol! That’s a technical term. It looks like your right arm is pinned to tight to your right torso and that is going to reduce your ability to generate good club head speed. Some call that a T-Rex swing. I think Tom has a video on this.
I recommend you back up from the ball just a couple of inches and bend over a little more from the hips. This will get you into a better position to turn and tilt more and be able to get more width and depth in your backswing. Only the top of your right arm should stay connected to your torso. The elbow should separate from your side. Then in the downswing you will have room to get the right elbow in front of your right hip and be able to hold the right wrist flexed deeper into the downswing and compress the ball better.
Others may have some better advice for you. Try this and let us know if it helps.
Thanks for posting your videos here, @David!
If you do not receive any responses, I encourage you to look at some of the other posts in the Video Analysis Room section of the Forum, see who some of the regular analysts are, and tag them here in your post (use the "@" sign and then start typing their name and the system will then give you the ability to choose that member - just like I did in tagging you at the top of this message).
For example, @burkholder.ronald is a resident expert on 2.8 and may be able to offer some thoughts.
