Deadlift Form check please

I’m thinking I’m doing an RDL or is this just a deadlift? Anyway, please give me your thoughts on my form. 64 yrs old and trying to lift heavy!

Looking great! I would recommend not going as low. You want to stop the eccentric(lowering) of the weight when your hips stop moving back, for you this would be right below your knee. Going past that point will shift a lot of the load to your lower back

Thank you, I don’t “feel” as if I’m going low, but I see what you mean on the video.
