2 pars and 2 double bogies. yikkkkes.

anyone have any tips on how to get a higher trajectory for my driver? It's going about 220 in the air, really low. and running about 30 yards.

(i used to be a 3 handicap in high school, getting double bogies makes me wanna hit a tree)

Assuming your posture in your setup is good to begin with, try titlting your shoulders 1-2 inches down (your right side shoulder dips 1-2 inches). Also place the golf ball by your toes instead of the inside part of your left heel. Youre swinging the club more upright due to the tilt / you're making contact with the golf ball on more of an upswing.
Youll def hit them a bit higher, but play around with both to find the perfect medium.

I lived on a golf course until i was 18 and started when i was 3. Handicap was a 2 point something at one point. You can't help but be decent when you golf every day for 15 years. But then i got married/had kids and had no time until now.
