2 IS THERE A NATURAL RAMP?

With the average driver face having only around 10 degrees of loft, you are never going to get much height into the ball on this shot. The flight is more flat and driven. For this reason alone, never take on the fairway driver when hitting uphill. It works best in situations like this, where the ground falls away in front of you and even a very low strike will manage to find its way into the air.
