yesterday was my first round of the year (shot a 43 on 9 but thats beside the point). of the 7 driving holes on the course, i sliced my driver of 6 of them. it wasnt until the 9 hole when i finally changed my swing a bit. i lifted my chin up and bit and made a conscience effort to bring the club back "insde" and to swing on a flatter, more "inside" plane. with these changes, i hit that ball 300 yards straight as an arrow. so the results are hard to argue with. so, i was wondering, should i use this "flatter" more "inside" swing plane with my iron swing as well? or should the iron swing be a little steeper and slightly "over the top" so i hit down in the ball?

Most people use a completely different swing with their irons. I would reccoment using a shorter, steeper swing with the irons to encourage de-lofting at impact. If you slice with your irons as you did with your driver, you do need to try to come more from the inside though, and maybe close the face just a little bit at adress.
