Hello everyone I am really dumbfounded on this. I'm 19 only 5'6 mid high handicapper but really good ball striker I hit 98% of my shots solid including the driver I hit ball around 270 but least 3 miles high and I hit a 9.5 degree driver I hit my irons extremely high also I've tried backing away from the ball lowering my swing plane can't bring it down at all! Any suggestions and help would be greatly appreciated thanks Jake

Lets back up a little bit. If you are hitting the ball that far, really high, you might want to check out the flex of your clubs. Maybe try out an 8.5 driver? Are you having issues with putting? I can tell you, as a 7 Handicap, that I hit 65% of my shots solid and dont hit the ball around 270 but once a round.

Well I use a stiff shaft swing speed 100 average putting is terrible along with anything inside 100 yards if someone could take over after I get the I'd be a scratch golfer lol and I've also never tried a.8.5 but I think its me my irons are the same way

    • Day 23: weird day, and only had a little bit of time. Just did mirror work again, working on where the elbow is in the downswing 
    • I flipped over to this tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it. Anyone else watch? I picked it up during the golf relay event, but seeing these pros out having fun in alternative events was refreshing and entertaining. I’m sure it will be on in reruns in the next week or so, so I won’t spoil the outcome. Im curious what others thought of it. I’m recording it’s later airing to see the beginning. 
    • Day 443 - 2025-12-17 Made a few swings in testing some things out at another academy. Might pop up on someone else's podcast in a few weeks.
    • Day 37 (17 Dec 25) - nine hole round with my good friend.  We got paired up with a couple of the men’s group regulars as part of their shootout.  Started off with a wonderful quad bogie and then a dbl on three to be six over thru three holes.  Game went 180° over the next five as I shot one under (including a chip in birdie on hole six and four up and down 1 putt pars) for a net finish of five over. What could have been a really tough nine became a solid finish due to staying in the moment and not checking out.  Great day in course management and keeping perspective .
    • Day 127 12-17 Backswing and flow practice. Took advantage of the 60 degeee weather(it was 20 degrees Sunday)
