See VillaFranca's swing thread, especially the part about taking my advice with a grain of salt

But you can see that you loop the club over the top and come into the ball way from the outside which is where that slice is coming from, work on the club coming more from the inside on the downswing.

I agree I've been told I come over the top many times, it's seems like it is the hardest thing to correct no matter how hard I work on it for whatever reason, flexibility maybe, I have this hitch in the start of my downswing that I think may be taking the club off plain can you see that? My hands come forward as I start down, it feels like i'm doing things right but when I watch video it shows the errors...hardest game ever.

To rid myself of the dreaded OTT, I practiced the Jim Furyk move. Exaggerated it. Then consciously worked on short swings where my hips slung the clubs around. Let arms and club whip around while relaxing them. That feel helped me start the process of a total rebuild. With lessons, it can be done but you have to rid yourself of the OTT. I'm no expert in the swing but those are my humble thoughts after having gone through similar battle in the past year.
