I recently changed my swing for my driver--I hit my irons very well, but my driving is sub-par at best. So if you would, hit the link and tell me what you think about my "new" swing. I am hitting it 225-240, with about a 10 yard slice. To compensate, I am aiming for the left of the fairway, and seem to do okay. However, I know I am capable of more reliable drives (straight and 245).

Here's the link; thanks in advance for your tips!

*edit*

I didn't have an "in the bag" when I posted this--this is my Nike Sasquatch 10.5*...I like it alot =D

Also, this is the same swing twice over--the first is regular speed, and the second is in slo-mo...

Slow down your swing. That's what I did and my slice was basically fixed. Next time you hit the range hit it maybe 80% and see what happens.

That club is bigger than you!!! How long have you been playing and are you taking lessons? A longer backswing with more torque, driving the right hip more to the target and a more complete rotation at your finish would all help...put your video next to a professionals and let them play side by side and you will be able to see more for yourself...

That club is too long for you, that's why your slicing everything - you're not getting it around. It's not a bad swing - not very fluid though - check out the kid behind you - now he has a nice fluid swing. Also, ditch the basketball shorts and tee shirt.

Try taking a lesson or get with your club pro. Your overall swing looks okay, but both of your arms look out of position at setup. Your local pro should be able to help you rather quickly. The pro can give you immediate feedback, where any more advice from me would be long and cumbersome.

your right hand grip is very open and leaves the clubface to easy to turn open,experiment with trying to see one or two knuckles on your right hand,this helps keep club square at contact

I can say with some certainty that if you just made a full shoulder turn (90 degrees to where your front shoulder pointed at the ball) you wouldn't slice it. As it is now, your hips are getting so far in front of your hands that you just can't get the clubface square to the target.

Pause your swing just a bit before you get to the ball (maybe 1-2 feet away) and look where your hips are: already pointed way out toward the target. There's certainly some good in a bit of that, and that "whip" effect of the hips leading is how I would say every single tour pro gets their distance if they hit it long, but if you're too far ahead you're going to get the clubface behind your hips and you won't be able to catch up.

Probably the best swing thought to fix it is to make sure you turn your back to the target. You may even be hooking it in no time, but at least you'll realize where the fix is and you can play around with just how far you need to turn.

This is something that you as a young buck can probably pull of pretty well :)

Then again, I could be seeing things wrong and your shoulder turn is fine. But it looks to me like you're stopping short and that your hips are hardly turning at all.

Grip is too strong. Turn the top of your right hand towards the target (the inside of your right elbow should not be pointing straight up, same goes for the left elbow). The stong grip is not the cause of your slice, it is something that you may have developed to minimize it, but you should correct it anyways.

The major problem is your lack of shoulder turn and hip turn. You need to find a way to improve your backswing windup. I would recommend you invest in a couple of lessons, because taken as a whole your swing looks like it has potential: You do plenty of things right, and I think this should be an easy fixer when some attention is directed to 'fundamentals'.
