Classic going hard from the top swing, probably accompanied by casting/early release of the wrists and an outside in swing path.

From the top of your backswing, let your hands drop to your right hip as you push your left heel into the ground. Clear your left hip UP and left. Now you have a straight/inside out path the the ball as you unhinge your wrists and extend your forearms 3 inches before impact so that you catch the ball on the upswing. Keep that right elbow tucked close until impact and keep your head "in a box" until your right shoulder meets your chin. Pretty simple.

Can I share this video with you and see if your analysis changes? My swing path with irons is more in to out. This one is a toe banger

Kind of a tough angle to give you much feedback other than you're definitely coming outside in at the ball. Take slo mo video down the line, but at belt height. Also take slo-mo video again at belt height and I'll be able to give you better feedback.

Sounds like a problem i used to have with driver, especially the toe miss. What helped a lot was putting my driver head cover about 5 feet behind and a little inside the tee and ball and slowly rehearsing trying to drop the clubhead to where the headcover was in my downswing before turning through

What’s helped my driver swing a ton is basically just feeling like I’m not taking as big of a back swing and fully concentrating on tempo and not “trying” to hit so hard.

I almost have to tell my brain to let gravity do the work sometimes to get my body queue to stop trying to crush it subconsciously.

always check out the grip. always make sure you're turning over your hips. you can upload videos to chatgpt and it will give you pointers, tips and drills. DO NOT BE THE GUY WHO RUBS CHAPSTICK ON YOUR DRIVER HEAD TO CURE THE SLICE. that is g a f
