Different swing for long clubs vs. short clubs...

[Razz11]

I have seen a few threads on this but I think mine might be a little different. With anything from my driver through my 5i my swing is very upright. Very steep and I finish with my hands almost at my head. Anything lower than that I would say I have a traditional swing with a good plane(not too flat and not too steep). I have tried a lot of different things and I seem to lose no distance and hit the ball a ton more accurate like this. If I try to flatten it out I hit dead duck hooks now. Personally I don't think it's a bad thing because the ball goes where I want it to, but I think as I progress in golf I may get frustrated with it just not looking right. Is there any reason why I can't hit a longer club with a flatter swing, and is there anything wrong with a very up and down swing that finishes very high? This is only my second summer of golf, so everything isn't super consistent right now and can change. I hit the ball a long way and am trying to smooth things out for accuracy and maybe give up a little distance if I need to which isn't a problem.

DO NOT CHANGE YOUR DRIVER SWING.... i repeat, DO NOT CHANGE YOUR DRIVER SWING!!!!! just a few months ago, i was able to hit my driver dead straight with a slight draw about 300 yards 10 times out of 10. i let someone talk me into flattening out my swing plane for more distance and workability. haha, i could kill the bastard who told me that. not only am i scared to swing my driver because i duck hook it all the time, but whenever i try to go back to my old swing i duck hook that too because my timing is all off. don't get messed up like i did. i'm still trying to figure this thing out. don't get me wrong, i do get about 15 yards farther with my new swing, but i'll trade those few yards anyday for my swing back.
