Never done this before but I thought it could be fun.
Things to keep in mind, I'm 45 years old and have only played for 2-3 years. My handicap is 8. I have a coach who has given me 5+ things to keep in mind, and I usually think only of 1-2 when I swing out on the course, and maybe 2-3 when I'm practicing on the mat.
What I'm currently working on is to not move the right hip too much to my right, but to instead load the power into the right thigh. I'm also trying to not bend my left (glove) hand but have a straight line from the underarm to the knuckles. The other thing I'm trying really hard to do is to move the club far out to my right in the first 20-30° with extended arms, rather than lifting the club up by my hands.
I'm super-far from an expert and I see lots of flaws compared to the pros. There's plenty of stuff still on my plate with the things I know I need to work on. Truth be told, at the moment, the thing I'm working on the most isn't swing mechanics but all mental; take it easy, and don't try to smash it.
