HOW HIGH IS TOO HIGH WITH A DRIVER?

Hitting it anywhere above the sweet spot is "too high" if that's what you're asking.

I guess I worded that funny now that I see the question . I have been driving the ball off the tee quite high and still getting distance but I think I am losing distance with teeing the ball up too high. Playing Saturday and I will start teeing the ball a little lower to get more of a direct drive hopefully, any other suggestions?

Not sure, depends on your ball flight. I would say go find a fitter and get some numbers. With out seeing your ball flight first hand I can't give any advice, you might be hitting it perfectly fine with regards to the height.

Average drive is 250-290 just lately noticed I've been losing some yards . Love my driver when I'm on I can hit the fairway all day all start with a lower tee setting . Is it true with the bottom of the club on the ground you want half the ball over the top of the club when teed up?

That's how I tee my golf ball up... 1/2 a ball width over the height of my driver when it's resting on the ground.

I don't play golf, I play at golf. There's a difference.
