Feel the butt of the grip work up toward your hip

The butt of the grip should feel like it's working back up toward your hip, not dropping down. When the handle goes down, the radius between your shoulder and the club head gets much shorter, which forces you to drive down. So feel the handle working back up toward you instead.
