Here are two videos that I took of Glenn hitting his drive and an "A" wedge (aka "Approach" or "Gap" wedge) on hole 18 on September 24, 2018:

Straight, but flew the green. Glenn said he hit it low. Distance to the pin was 80 yards. Club used had an "A" on the sole. This is an "Approach" or gap wedge. |
Ken's assessment
Glenn's main problem is swaying. His head and right knee both move to
the right during his backswing. That will cause fat and topped
fairway shots. Glenn could benefit from the "Pro
Head 2 Golf Swing Trainer". Unfortunately, it costs $ 200.
A free way to reduce Glenn's head/knee movement problems is
this drill.
If he swayed while doing this drill, he'd topple over.
I, also, have head movement problems. Rather than spend $ 200, I made my own head stabilizer using a large tripod ($ 60), an Orange Whip (which I already had), and a clamp:
