I have been over the top with a bad driver slice for too long. I just took 4 lessons last month but still am taking divots to the left with either a controlled hook , a left straight shot or a slice. My teacher wants me to be able to hit a push draw but when I try to change my swing path I get bunched up and can barely hit the ball. I have been working on an aggressive hip bump to try and get into the slot. Any tips or drills?

I played Baseball/Softball for over 50 years  (no, really, I started at 7 years old and quit at 62) and then when I started taking golf seriously, I had a big fade/slice.  I took lessons, but that didn't help initially, it screwed me up like it sounds happened to you too.  Then one day my local pro said set up normally and then try to hit the ball on the back inside quarter, swinging very slowly.  Set the ball on the tee with the logo directly at the back of your target line, then rotate it 1/4 towards you.  Now don't think of anything other than hitting the logo (very slow swing at first).
