This ball flight is not a good ball flight. If you look at equipment and golf balls from about 10 to 15 years ago, then this would be an ideal ball flight. With the advances in techonology players are looking for a higher launch, lower spinnind ball flight. You want to see a launch angle of 12-15 degrees, with about 2800 to 3400 rpm of spin.
Your bosses ball flight is a result of too much spin on the golf ball. If he were to get fit for a new driver he may see a gain of 10+ yards depending on the equipment that he is currently play. If his equipment is older, say 6 to 15 years, he could see a gain of more yardage. The important thing is that he be fit by his local PGA professional.
