I really seem to struggle with this. I have watched the video several times. This is my second attempt at the pattern. The first one was last year. My ball goes very low (barely getting off the ground) and left. Not sure why I can't get this. This is troublesome as everyone on the forum seems to think it is easy to execute. I must be doing something drastically wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I know this is the pattern that will cure my OTT slice. Thanks.

If you are hitting them solidly and they are going low and left, I would check your grip. Either you are gripping it too strong at the outset, or you may be regripping at some point during the backswing.
Make sure you get the grip before you set up to the ball and leave it there. Then after hitting a shot, check it again. Report back.
My shots are not going anywhere. They are actually going on the ground to the left and not getting in the air. The one thing I know is correct is the grip. I am pretty neutral with the heel pad on top. I think I might still be coming over the the top. Is that possible even with the closed club face? I also think I am over doing the twistaway but if I don't than the clubface is open so I cannot find a middle ground. Please help! Thanks.

jlgenson,
Have you done the crossing guard drill and
the "swinging under the stick" part of the video?

Can you take a video of your swing for us to see?
