Flying Too Low

Problem

The ball keeps flying much lower than you would expect it to.

Cure

Make sure your head is not swaying excessively during your swing; which will cause a loss of loft.

Therapy

Instead of just trying to keep your head still, simply focus on keeping your head behind the ball at setup and as you contact the ball. If you are noticing a loss of loft with your wedges and irons, make sure you are not trying to help the ball up. Remember that you need to hit down on the ball in order to get the loft you desire.
