From your description, you are getting a mushy sound, not crisp at all--all thud and no *thwack!* ?

What mic or mics are you using?

Consider too the room you are recording in. Does it have hard reflective surfaces? Or is it carpeted, curtained, lots of soft surfaces that may be absorbing the highs?
