I feel like my swing plane is good but my club head is open at Impact causing a slice? I can't figure out how to load the video

You can embed a video using the filmstrip icon on the editor toolbar, or if you are on mobile, by using the command [video][/video], so it looks like this:

@jholmes1087 Look at the top of your editing box (the box where you type your posts), you should see an icon that looks like a film strip. Click it and paste your YouTube url into it. That will embed the video. Edit* you should take some video hitting a ball, practice swings rarely represent what your actual swing looks like. Hard to say from a DTL view but it looks like you're coming off the ball towards A3.7 or so

My club face is staying open at impact on my driver would changing the settings to more of a fade help close it??

What kind of club is it? Most clubs manipulate draw/fade bias by adjusting lie angle and some by moveable weights; neither affect the face angle.

It's the path for u. U swing so out to in that it equates to a very open clubface to path - your clubface is pretty square throughout your swing. I would take some videos face on & watch how far your hips pull away from the target during your backswing - this encourages a very steep downswing. U want to learn how to keep your hips from sliding away - if u keep the hips forward & your head back it will encourage a more shallow path (in to slightly out) instead of out to in. Try pushing balls to the right instead.

    • Awesome, thank you very much. I ended up giving them a call and you are right. Got to try out some different clubs, the first suggestion was the Wilson Staff Launch Pad irons I believe, the hybrid irons. Personally I wasn't liking them all too much, however they were much better than the old '74 MacGregor blades I've been playing. Then I tried a couple others, I forget what the one was but the one I ended up liking the best was the Cobra Aerojet irons. Overall feel and performance was the best for me on these, I also preferred the appearance and sound of these. Bit the bullet.

    • Live Updates from the range! Open the club face at address, and trust that you’re gonna be able to get the face in a good position at impact. I don’t have to feel like I have to keep the face open throughout the entire downswing. The swing feels much more free-flowing through impact. Difference in ball flight is that previously it would be a low to mid trajectory that starts straight and draw left, or slight pulls. New ball flight are high push draws.  It’s kind of stupid. I feel like it should slice off the planet. I look up and it’s maybe a slight push. 🤣 Some distant wedge feels. More weight on front foot. Keep weight on front foot.  Pivot around left knee. Solid contact all the time.

    • Day 2:  I hit a bucket of balls this morning.  Not gonna lie, almost didn’t go since it was my first time going alone and it was a little intimidating.  I mostly hit with my driver (the last bit of balls was with my 7 iron).  The sun was in my face but I think the ones that had good contact with went the furthest yet (maybe 150 yards then a good roll?).  Once I switched to my 7, the first half of my balls were crap.  I’ve always hit my irons before my driver when practicing and done fine - does this make any difference or is it just because I’m so green?
