Wonder if anyone can help? my driving seems to have changed, i am now hitting the ball lower (scaring grass dwelling animals but not daisy cutting!)it is also going a bit further and tbh a bit straighter! Before my drives went high and slightly right :D
I am not moaning about it :) just if anyone has an idea what i have changed, because i do not feel that i have changed my swing/stance in any way?

Your clubface has changed at impact. I was a touch open and now it's straight. Has your grip changed at all?
I suspect it may have got a little stronger

Do you know what, that is exactly what it is, i am impressed :D
I would like to drive somewhere between the 2 scenarios, what would you advise?

Just a wild guess :rolleyes:
Try moving the ball forward in your stance an inch or two and make sure it's a high tee

Ive started doing this too.

I now use pride red tees for driving instead of the yellow ones! They only go in te ground a few mm bu they are the perfect height to hit the ball in themiddle of the face of the driver.

You are probably getting more roll as the trajectory is lower :)
