Use tee height and heel to control shape

The speaker says a lower tee height encourages him to cover the ball more and says he hopes for less right-to-left shape. He describes playing the ball toward the heel with a tee height slightly lower than in his normal swing. He says lowering tee height and playing it about the heel is hard to hook from that part of the clubface; higher tee height helps a draw, while lower tee height helps a lower cut shape.
