Great stuff guys, we all have to experiment and find what works best for us. I was a little stubborn, making sure I was hitting down on the driver. I moved it up in my stance a little so I could catch it just shy of low point, and it solved several problems I was having and gave me a little more zip as well.

Thanks for the ideas!

"by putting ball forward and inside...past low point" - wicker1000

Hey man, just wanted to say thanks for your post.

Since turning into a hitter, my driver swing just didn't really match up with the same swing I use on all my other clubs. I was manipulating it, trying to thrust upwards and outwards, while all the swing I use on all my other clubs were downwards and outwards.

I remembered what you said in this post, about the ball being inside, and about geometry, and thought to myself ... he's right, I'm should still be swinging in an arc/circle.

My hit on the way down/level swing was okay, as I was only thinking about getting to low point. For the upwards hit, by teeing the ball slightly higher, making my low point slightly more behind the ball, and putting the ball slightly more inside, towards the heel, I was able to use my regular swing and focus only on low point, and it's excellent.

Again, man, thanks a ton, and may you frequently shoot birdies, pars, and eagles.
