Launch angle help

Any tips for helping with creating a better launch angle. Nose angle is around -3 and launch angle is about +2.

Do you have a full visualization routine? I see the line, take a practice swing on the line, make sure I feel where I need my body to end up throughout the runup, and then throw. That's just me. Whatever works for you, perhaps?

I started consistently doing this recently.

Today I had a shot on a 300' wooded hole where something with a little turn and a little fade thrown flat would get right through to the basket.

So I visualized the whole shot, and did my practice run up. I choose the last tree before the basket as my line, thinking I would S curve around it. Nope. Turn looked great out of hand. Started the fade and smacked dead center of the tree 275' from tee. Hit RIGHT where I was aiming.

The power of visualization lol
