Are lower lofted drivers harder to hit?

[duncan mackie]

with the benefit of having read all the responses to your question it's clear that to get the lower ball flight you should -
1. change the shaft
2. leave the shaft
3. get an 8 degree - it's no harder to hit
4. stick to a 12 degree but hit it differently
5. close the face then open it again to allign...
6. tee it lower
7. tee it higher
8. hit down
9. hit up
10. move the ball back in your stance

good luck

In other words, everyone is different, try a load of options until you find the best suited setup for you.

This post made me chuckle Duncan! I am sure with time and practice I will find a way!

I've found the answer for me. I don't use a driver! I can hit my 3 wood as far as most hit a driver and I hit it straight so hopefully my H/C will start to show this. :rofl:

I went from 9.5 degree to 8 degree last summer when my driver broke. I could not get the 8 degree in the air at all. It was a great club but I just could not get it up. I lasted a fair while with it but in the end I took it back to the pro. I found another 9.5 degree on ebay exactly the same and bought it. I think it deppends on your swing and your shaft.
