It’s always hard to say without assessing you Thomas but the bottom position of the swing will try to rotate the top of the pelvis forwards and bottom backwards unless you have good abs and core stability.

The extra movement from the pelvis can then affect the nerves within the lower back. Both your core muscles and hamstrings will help to stabilise the pelvis so my advice would be to workout on both of these areas.

Have you tried the single leg kettlebell deadlift? Only go down as far as your hamstrings will allow. I’d also work on some leg lowers, if you have the strength, maintaining a strong and stable neutral spine. You will also want to work frequently on your hip mobility and probably your thoracic mobility.

I am over 50 so I always start out slow. this winter i developed what the physical therapist called “False Sciatica” and gave me some hip exercises that got me feeling better after a couple of weeks. He said that the dead lift was fine if done properly but the bottom of the swing is bad unless you lower the kettlebell in a controlled manner.

I think what got me was either moving to a higher weight in snatches or the twisting and raising kettlebell exercise which I don’t think you use.

Should I give up on the swing or develop it even more slowly?
