I feel like i use the right hand/arm quite alot in the swing, iv been told that i should be using the left hand/arm to pull the club into the ball to create more lag and get the club comin down on a better plane! i have a tendancy to slice the driver, would this be the reason why??!! any help would be greatly appreciated...

You don't create lag be pulling the left arm down, it is created by the rotation of the body. You want to have soft and passive hands/wrists and arms. You slice the ball, straight slice, starts straight then go's right because the face is open to the path and you are swinging out-to-in(OTT). If you are hitting the ball to the right then going right then you might need to strengthen your grip.

There are a few threads to look at.
