I'm trying to get my backswing to go more straight back on plane instead of sucking it inside.  What seems to cause me to suck it inside is my right arm bending too soon.  So the last few sessions I've made a conscious effort to keep both arms straight at address instead of the semi-relaxed position that I'm usually in.  I can't really say if it's helping or not, I haven't videoed myself since the change, but it feels more like I'm taking back down the line.  Contact is usually crisp, but I can tell I'm still coming over the top slightly on the downswing because I'm pulling most iron shots.

Not terrible, I can play with a pull, but I'm wondering if I'm putting the wrong bandaid on the problem.  Are the arms supposed to be almost locked straight at address, or more relaxed and bent?

Gotta have a video to comment on the depth of your hands and clubhead.

The arms should be relaxed and slightly bent at address, not straight and locked. The right arm can bend too fast or too late, again we need video.
