I have realised that my swing plane is very steep. I've focused on my takeaway and my old habit is to bring it up steep. I was looking for any drills to re program my muscle memory, for a flatter swing plane

When I want a flatter swing, I concentrate on keeping my elbow close to my side until I am halfway into my backswing.

Maybe move the ball a little further from your feet?

It looks like your swing plane is pointed off to the left, which makes you cut across the ball. Do you usually hit fades? Moving the ball further from your feet might let your arms extend more naturally which could straighten out the direction your swing plane points.

The steepness of the swing plane looks fine to me, but I am no expert.

Are you planning to submit to Swing Check ?

As for flatter, try making a few baseball swings where your arms move more across your chest than up over your shoulders, then incrementally move down to a golf posture, keeping that "across the chest" feeling.

Maybe it's the angle of the camera, but it looks like you are slightly over the top on both swings.

I believe you are all right. I have thought about moving the ball out a little. AlsoI do hit the fade, and I may be a little over the top. Does over the top come from throwing the hands a littls on the downswing transition?
