On the backswing I tend to want to close the club face and pull it way right... Even when I don't move the club in my hands I will still pull it left and hook it. Is there anything to resist the urge and hit a nice straight drive? Some things that kind of work is taking it back "flatter." Any suggestions appreciated.

Try to make sure your grip isnt too strong first of all. A simple grip change can cure a hook (by making your grip weaker). Also, try to open the club face in your backswing and practice releasing the club a little bit later.

Resist the urge to "hit" the ball and learn to swing the club. The ball is still there (hasn't moved) and the club will swing into it. This is the best book I've found for eliminating the urge to "hit the ball."
