Any advice for not hitting the ground with my driver?  No matter how hard I try I either hit the ground or I am very close to the ground when I hit my driver.  I am 71.  Not real flexible either.  I feel like I have a pretty good set up.  I have tried not grounding the driver and it seems to help a little.  I am usually high on the face and a little towards the toe.  I have hitting in the net at home, marking the face and that is my pattern.  I can really tell when I hit the center of the face.  Anybody know of any good videos or drills to try.  Thanks

Any way to post a video?

      Mizuno Jpx One Driver & Fairway Woods

      By saevel25 · Posted

      JPX ONE Driver - Mizuno Golf Official Website Discover the JPX ONE Driver - /jpxone/jpxone-driver-hero-mobile.webp /jpxone/jpxone-logo-white-lg.svg The World’s first NANOALLOY™ DRIVER... Mizuno is introducing new technology with their JPX One fairway woods and drivers. The new tech for golf but used tech for Mizuno since it is found in their baseball side of the business, is Nanoalloy. Nanoalloy is a microscopic polymer layer put on the face of their titanium driver. What this layer does is change the elasticity of the driver face and increases ball speed over a larger area of the clubface. Adding a bit more elasticity with this layer, they are conserving the golf balls energy from the impact.  Due to USGA rules, this technology falls under their coating regulations. Which add a correction factor to the ball speed testing done for conforming golf clubs. This rule was introduced when Taylormade went to their carbon clubface. Which I didn't know existed.  I am sure that center strikes are at the USGA limits like all other drivers. This has my interest. I am always, "window shopping", for new golf equipment 😉
