The best way I've found to cure hip sway is to watch yourself in a mirror. Put a piece of masking tape in a straight line or use the edge of the mirror and start with your trail hip right at the edge. Groove a turn that does not move away from the ball.

In looking at your actual swing, you're over-swinging. While counter-intuitive, golf at times can be a game of "less is more". As you over swing on your backswing you make it much more difficult to sync up your lower half of your body.

When I took up the game at 40 I too had hit impulse, still, do. I am not a swinger but a hitter. I see the ball and see where I want the ball to go and hit it there. I share that because in some cases it's best to work with what you have as opposed to chasing what others have or want for you.

When used to (hit) the ball i could sometimes play some good rounds,but all to frequently id have a bad round straight after and visa versa. This is due to the hand eye coordination changing due to alot of factors (how u are feeling/conditions on that day/etc) and too many more to list.
How to get better at swinging with your right wrist?
Let your right wrist go from extended to flexed (like when you shoot a basketball) so the clubhead releases up and around without that excessive wrist roll. This is important, because it means the clubface isn’t closing or moving in a different direction to your swing path. Instead, it’s releasing up and around—and staying square to the path! Groove these moves and your accuracy will skyrocket. Better yet, you won’t sacrifice any distance.

What causes the hit instinct in almost every amateur golfer on the planet?
What causes the hit instinct in almost every amateur golfer on the planet is too much tension in their dominant or trailing arm, and this is in most cases the right arm, for right-handed golfers.
