    Mechanics for increasing angle of attack

    Been working on increasing my angle of attack. Below are the basics i have done. Curious what others have experiemented with with good / bad results.

    * ball forward and higher than 1/2 above face (3/4 - to fully above)
    * hover club tends to help hit up on it
    * tilt back at address and keep tilt at backswing and head behind ball at impact

    * problem i get by moving the ball up which makes sense but then its harder for me to hit with my usual in to out if its too far forward. too far forward i sometimes then reverese and come over the top with a pull. curious how to fix this while keeping the ball so far forward?

    * i am a delayed hitter; thought about releasing earlier in downswing with hope that earlier release causes more of an upswing later at impact?

    any feedback is welcome. thanks.

    make sure you add more tilt as you come into the ball... base of the neck behind the belly button at impact. If you look at most professionals their head is over their right knee at impact. The other thing that will help is having the front shoulder working up and back enough.

    Good luck the difference in hitting up and hitting down on the ball can be as much as 20-50 yards
