TOPIC: High ball or low ball

High ball or low ball 9 months, 1 week ago #36385

I would like to know what type of ball you like or prefer to hit. Not the brand of ball but the trajectory. I know you may need to hit high or low depending on pin positions and weather/course conditions. But which, high or low, is your game. Also is this shot natural for you or do you manipulate it with your swing.
Me, I prefer low as I feel I have better direction, shot shape and distance control.
Which do you prefer any why.

If you live in Texas like I do, you play the low ball. Of course, by "low" I don't mean running it up onto every green (although that is certainly a viable play)...I still want it to be high enough to carry the right distance, but not so high that it gets tossed around by the wind. I can hit it high if I need to as well...very high, actually, even with the long irons...but that's not a very usable shot most of the time for me.

Great view of Faldo here...this is the trajectory I like to play on my tee shots and longer clubs 90% of the time.



Compare that to something like this...



Too high for my tastes.
