Not likely...
You need to get on a launch monitor with an experienced clubfitter to determine what loft club you need.
If the ball is going really high is probably not the lofts fault, its the spins fault
ETA: If you are a brand new golfer your focus should probably be closer to the green. Driving distance is really over-rated. Work more on good iron play and even more on chipping and putting. Thats where you will notice a real difference in your scores. After you have gotten a good grip on shortgame, then start focusing on your diving ability.
EXACTLY....well put. Achieving the long ball is in my opinion the single biggest limiting factor in the MALE golfers progression. If your goal is to be a driving range guy who can hit the long ball then yes, concentrate on pounding the drive. If however you want to learn to shoot the lowest score you have in your ability range then work on wedge play, irons and putting. Short game shots are the killer or savior of all our games.
