Tee it about 3/4" and hit with a -6" AofA. Works a treat.

I knew a guy with a -8 AofA. He was fitted with a 42.5" 13* Driver - effectively a huge 3-wood! Worked pretty well though. He wsn't likely/inclined to change his swing.

I need to hit my current driver a bit higher but even teeing it up 2.5" I struggle to get any real height from it.

9.5 deg with a x tour stiff shaft, ball flight is great but there is a few hole I could do with hitting it higher but no matter what I do just can't get it up.

 

[t0m]

thats what she said lol i cant comment really but could you not tee up higher ?

How much higher, I use the blue and white high tees and it's only in the ground a couple of mm, should I use the green n white tees.

 

[t0m]

like i say im not good enough to comment i use pink castle tees

 

[louise_a]

[t0m]

Triangular Blue ones then!

Find a friendly fitter and get some LM numbers.

You might be surprised how high tour guys actually hit Driver. Everything about current setup(what's the shaft?) seems geared to low launch/flight which is probbly good for Leven, but maybe not the others.

Tried teeing it further forward for higher flight? AofA should be greater with 'same' swing. May need to set up aiming further right though - as face will be more closed. Higher tee required here than normal, otherwise could miss! Shouldn't hit ground as it should be 'same' swing as normal, just further on in the arc.

Btw. Best thing about pink tees is they are easy to find. Gave up on grey ones that I keep losing them!

lol helps me as i loot to hit the tee
