Par4QC How does one hit down on the ball(neg AoA) and not decrease the actual loft of the clubhead?
Yeah, ol' Monte is a 'Pro'/instructor, and I am not. So, he therefore is correct.
I almost forgot my manners here. Mea culpa.
He's not saying you should hit down on your driver, he says "Trying to hit up" causes way more problems then it solves, mainly because people do it wrong. Can't find the right video yet but here's a quote from 2017:
I went from hitting up 4-6 degrees with my old driver to 1-2 degrees with the KZG VC-420. As many of you know, I am against hitting up so much as it creates issues making center face contact. It also lowers margin of error on face/path control for most. This is not just for just a long hitter like myself, but for all club head speeds. Like most things in golf and life, the opposite extreme is as bad as the one causing you problems. Down too much is obviously bad, but so is up too much.
