A. Gary's Quick Tips:

Two reasons for hitting the ball too high are having the ball too far forward in your stance, and having a backswing and follow-through that are too long.

To produce a lower ball flight, put the ball farther back in your stance. And remember that the shorter the follow through, the lower the flight of the ball.
