I seem to be hitting the ball very high with every club bar the putter. Im hitting the ball on good lines where i want it go but it goes very high and im about ten yards shorter per iron that when before i had lessons and sorted all my fundamentals out a while back. Has anybody got any opinions on what could be causing this?

Could be a variety of things.

However, I'm hitting the ball very high a.t.m. because I'm deliberately staying behind it and now my scoop has returned.

What was your lesson on?

I had about 4 or 5 earlier in the year just to learn all the fundamentals and get a controlled swing as i was quite new to golf and my swing was wild and erratic! :)

Ive no idea what flipping it means but looking on the internet it sounds like it could be what im doing. I think the club face is getting to the ball before my hands have got through which is possibly what is adding loft?

I used to hit the ball high with my driver, 3 word and longer irons. This was caused by a weak grip to my right hand, I am right handed. Now this has been strengthend the club is more in the fingers I now have a much more lower penetrating shot.

the G range go extremely high. I have a set of G10's and they were so high it was unbelieveable! Switched to my titleists and have lost about a club in distance but a lot lower flight.
