Re: proper divots/swing plane

Just to clarify you are saying the divot lies outside (e.g on the far side of the tee peg) rather than the divot itself pointing right?

If the divot is on the other side of the tee from which you are standing then you are coming over the top.

I would put a headcover on the far side of the ball during practice and get used to hitting from the inside.

On the course (or in practice) focus on the inside back edge of the ball (bit Of the ball nearest your back foot) and aim to hit this. Or imagine a wall just on the far side of the ball and you want to miss it on the way down and then on your follow through.

This should help you get used to hitting from the inside rather than over the top. I would suggest posting a video of your swing to look at where the root cause of the OTT move comes from.

Hope that makes sense!

Cheers
