Driver angle

Hi guys. My tee shots are low drives and sometimes even worm-burners. I used to cast and swing with mostly my right arm which actually resulted in long, clean contact, but slice-city.

I attribute the driver angle to my recently learning to uncoil as well as learning to hit with the left arm more and down with my irons. My irons are flying well, but my tee shots are downward.

Is there anything I can do to assure my driver angle is better? I set up with the ball just inside my left heel. The swing feels OK, it's just the angle of my left wrist that's the causing the head to point downward.

Any help? Is this common? Pretty embarassing.

Thanks.

Re: Driver angle

you don't want to hit the driver on the downswing, you want to hit it one the upswing. try a upper body tilt away from the target. still have a proper weight shift, but make sure you keep your head still and do not move that foward with your weight shift.
