Lead arm bends way early, right before the downswing. Leads directly to casting and chunking!

Did you move the ball back because you were hitting it fat?
This looks like it’s center stance, which would probably only be ideal for a wedge. I’d probably move the ball slightly forward so you can use rotation and a shift to move the divot
Anyway, as you start down you need to start turning the glove logo toward the ground. Right now your lead wrist stays a bit cupped, which indicates the face is open. When this happens you’ll always have to cast a bit to square the face and help line up the clubface for a playable shot.
If the ball is moved back because you hit it fat, it gives you less time to get the club around square and then can make the problem worse.
From the top, slowly, start to turn the clubface so it’s looking at the ground as you swing down. You will see it feels much different and it allows the club head to stay further behind your hands just due to how your body works. That will start to fix it.
Edit: you posted similar setup and stuff a week ago, you have to actually make changes if you want to see different outcomes. This won’t be a feeling thing, you have to change the actual ball position and mechanics.

That mat isn’t doing you any favors either. It looks way clumped up right in front of the ball. Subconsciously you’re probably not wanting to put the club head into that to avoid breaking your wrist. Can you smooth it out any? You want to avoid practicing bad habits, if you get good ball contact on a bad mat, it’ll mess you up bad in the course.

Have tried not casting?
This drill has helped me enormously:
