The Mystery of My Swing
My swing has become a total mystery to me. I am hitting the irons well—I planted a seven iron in the middle of an elevated green today from 160. Not as good as many of you, but quite good for me. And I am hitting my fairway woods well. I hit a three wood today to a green from 210.
But my play with the driver is pathetic. I am barely breaking 200 yards off the tee. My shots go WAY up into the sky and then fall with no roll whatsoever. They’re straight enough ... I’m splitting fairways ... but I’ve got to get more distance. I’ve tried widening my stance, and using a flatter swing plane. No luck. I’ve also move the ball back a bit in my stance. Again, nothing.
I hate to say it, but I may have to out and pay for professional help.
On the bright side, because my iron play has been so good, I’m playing well. Today, I shot an 87 on a course with a 69.7/128 rating.

Where on the clubface is the ball at impact? It sounds like it might be too high; maybe teeing the ball a little lower might help.

The ball is striking the upper half of the face ... I am teeing the ball as is usually recommended, with half the ball above the face.
I could try it more down ...
