I could really use some help on my overswing. Does anyone have a drill that would help me eliminate this?

A wonderful drill I picked up from the golfchannel.com website was this.

Reach across your chest with your lead arm as far as you can. Now turn your shoulders 90* to the target line.

Put a club in your hands.

That is your backswing. Anything further is overswinging.

This is best done with a camcorder or big mirror, so you can see the position.

The only 'drill' I know of is to take what feels like half swings, if you don't do the above.

overswing can be caused by over rotating hips. A good drill is to turn your back foot as much as you can facing the target, your hips will not be able to over rotate while doing this.
