So I've been struggling with a pull and pull hook, I've done everything possible to correct this, emphasis in to out swing path that results in a a huge push, driving my left hip through agressively  witch is resulting in poor contact at best, the only thing that is working for me is I've changed my swing with my driver where I over rotate in my back swing where I lose eye contact w the ball but am making great contact and hitting it relatively straight just struggling w having confidence in this new found swing for the obvious reasons, wondering if anyone had any thoughts on this? Thanks

Post your swing! Go to member swings thread and post! Best way to get help, and doesn't take much time at all. 

But as a quick check, look at grip, posture, ball position, and balance.

Most hooks come from a swing path that is too far inside-out, pull hooks included. 

Face left of target, path anywhere right of face = Pull hook.

Another recommendation to start a swing thread.

Also I want to point out the the direction the ball starts is determined by where the face is aimed at impact. So the pull hook doesn't necessarily mean the path is across the ball.
