Low ball flight can be an advantage when hitting shots in the wind. In a dry course, it can also help you get an extra scroll. However, if you always hit it low, you generally lose the distance and control distance. Whether it’s your or your driver’s handcuff, you need to be able to adjust your ball flight and make the main changes to maximize distance and accuracy. That is why your ball flight is so low and the adjustments you can make to fix it.
Check your rotation rates and go for a suitable club
Sometimes, the issues you have with the ball flight are not directly related to your oscillation or configuration, but have more related to your equipment. Very little roll result in shots that Stay low and fall quickly.
Go for a suitable club or use a release monitor to determine if a matter of equipment potentially makes your rotation rates very low. This table gives you some ideal rotation rates for a driver Use this as a guide when you are trying your current equipment.
| Slip speed category | Rotation rate (RPM) | Peak height (legs) |
|---|---|---|
| Very fast (105+ MPH) | 1750-2300 | 100-120 |
| Quick (97-104 MPH) | 2000-2500 | 87-100 |
| Average (84-96 MPH) | 2400-2700 | 70-86 |
| Slow (72-83 mph) | 2600-2900 | 58-70 |
| Ladies (<72 MPH) | 2600-2900 | 45-58 |
Correct your ball position
The ball position has a huge impact on your ball flight.
Putting the ball far away in your stay can create a corner removed from the attack, making it difficult to get the ball high enough.
For most handcuffs, place the ball slightly in front of the center. With the driver, the ball moves further in front of the center, outside the front heel. If you want more information on the right ball placement for iron shots, check out our full guide.
Minimize the axis lean ahead
Hitting a golf stroke with your hands in front of the ball is correct.
If you exaggerate this position, it will keep your shooting lower. Have you seen the players in the range with their hands so far before they look like they will hit a slap blow?
At the address, make sure your hands are compatible with the golf ball. You don’t have to push them so far before they enjoy your club. Practice some half -long shots where you work in your hands leading, but not forcing this position.
Aim for a more neutral check
A check is considered strong when the lead hand (for a right -hand golf player) is more distorted to the right and the trail hand ends more at the bottom of the club. This gives the handmade more facial control. Strong syllables can create flights with lower balls.
Aim for a neutral syllable in which you see two knuckles in your upper hand when looking down the ball.
Also, make sure your club gloves are in good condition and do not slip into your hands when shaking. If your hands slide into the syllable, you can inadvertently move to a strong control on your back.
Adjust your strike point
If you hit low shots on the face of your clubs (both cuff and driver), your starting angle will be lower and you will have a difficult time to get the right peak height.
Start by identifying if this is an issue in your game.
Use influence tape or foot spray in Clubface to see where you are contacting. While you do not need to add this as a swing that is thought to hit large iron shots, the ideal shock location is about four or five grooves up on the face of an iron.
With the driver, the best point of contact is slightly above the center.
To fix low strikes, try these adjustments:
- Tee it above with your driver.
- Feel a slight angle of growing attack for better height with longer clubs.
- Move a little more pressure on your front leg in the influence to provide a cleaner, higher stroke.
- Check your swinging plane to make sure the club is not entering too shallow
Improve body movement and weight displacement
In Impact, if your body moves far in front of the golf ball, you will reduce the attic at the club and hit the lower shots. You may have heard the concept of striking against a strong leading side.
To hit the lead side in the correct order, make sure you are loading your side of the tracks properly on your back.
In decline, do not be brought forward.
To avoid that exaggerated slide through the ball, gradually shift your weight to the lead side. Hold your head behind the ball.
My favorite way to practice this is by swinging with my feet together. Trains balance and prevents excessive movement forward. You can also put a stretch stick on the ground against your lead side and make sure you do not crack it on the way down.
Final thoughts
Addressing the low ball flight typically involves making small adjustments than large swing adjustments. Use technology to identify issues and then work things with simple training like hitting shooting with your feet together.
