3 months ago I was swingIng was very flat, around my body rather than a normal swing plane. After some work on the range, steepening my attack, and slowing my backswing down, I find I'm getting a lot more height on the ball. I usually had a high-ish ball flight anyway, but now the thing is coming down with snow on it. It looks ridiculous at times.
On the plus side, I'm hitting the ball far better, and more consistently than I was before, and getting it to stop on greens when I hit them.
I'm probably a club or two 'shorter' in some areas on the course, because of the extra height. For example, a par 3 here where wind is normally left to right, I could slap a pitching wedge on to it, but after coming up short last time out, with a 9 iron, I was frustrated.
I know hitting the ball consistently is more important, but my driving used to give me easier 8 or 9 irons into flags, rather than a 5 or 6.
Any recommendations for keeping the ball flight lower than small aircraft?
Cheers fellas.
