Please, instead of buying a new, shiny club, find an instructor. It really is the best money spent.
Video, pleaseWhen you good your over the top move does your group have to change? The reason I ask is because I have an offer the top swing and when I try to flatten it out and come from the inside I block the ball way right.

It's a big reason why I was such a good offensive lineman. I was not the strongest in regards to the power lifts (I was respectable but there were lots of guys benching 350+ and squatting 500+), but I was extremely efficient with my feet and using the ground.
I think the feet are more critical in golf than many realize. I know I can tell when my feet don't have that well placed feeling that my shot will struggle. I am not fanatic about it, but I know it makes a difference.I worked with 2 former NFL players (Jay Brophy - Dolphins; and Mark Murphy - Packers) at St. Vincent-St. Mary HS and they always talked about linemen using their feet. As in "This kid has Division I ability - he uses his feet so well."
Makes sense how you describe it. Kind of a leverage thing too, being able to apply that force from the best angles to maximize power.
It's why a little guy like Justin Thomas can smack the crap out of the ball and be a long driver.

Weird thing is, I hit the ball relatively straight. Every once in a while I pull it. But mostly straight.The main reason instructors and golfers want to change an over the top move is because you will tend to lose a lot of distance as you’re cutting across the ball l, hitting it with more of a glancing blow and almost always putting a lot of slice spin on the ball. Also, the dynamic loft of the club will be higher, so the ball goes higher, shorter and curves right.
For most people this is a tough way to improve
