The maximum height of a thrown ball is dependent on the upward portion of the initial velocity. Air friction will slow it somewhat but gravity will cause it to lose most of its upward velocity. The velocity will decrease by 9.8 m/sec for each second of its upward motion, until it reaches zero. At that point, the ball is pulled back toward Earth.

Placing the ball at the back of your stance will effectively make the ball fly lower and farther. By placing the ball at the back of your stance you are decreasing the loft of the club. If you want to hit a high shot move the ball forward but remember it will not go as far.
