Hitting the ball way to high... any tips?

[jd4vt1998]

Okay, so I'm just a kid and I'm relatively new to the game.  One of the (many) problems I have had recently has been, when i come through my downswing, I've been essentially lifting the ball up.  I'll go from one hole hitting a 200 yd straight drive to hitting one that looks like a pop fly, and it's not just drives.  I've been consistently floating the ball up in the air way to high with a 3 hybrid from the fair way.  So, I'll try tomorrow to get a video uploaded, but, just for now, any ideas as to what my problem(s) may be?

Your swing is too upright and steep. Flaten out your backswing, by bringing the club more around you. The club should be near your back, and not high above your shoulders.

Okay thanks!  I'll give that a try today on the range!
