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

    • Yes.  Did he not hit the range before the round? When my first few pre-round drives aren't what I expect, the first thing I check is my driver settings, in case they changed.  I am on my second adjustable driver and I am still not trusting that golf gremlins don't change it between rounds. The second thing I check is my alignment and setup, and that is far more often the culprit than my settings. In any case, there are some simple things that I imagine should be on a professional player's pre-round checklist that I am surprised when they aren't.  One of those is the settings for any adjustable clubs. 
    • It was also set at B1 at a previous event, and… so there's dubiousness around whether he's telling the truth (again).
