Also before I put a club in the bag I want to hit it 50-75 times or play a couple rounds with it before I choose it to make sure it really fits my swing speed.I have people I teach tell me I hit it so good on the range when it was a demo but now can't hit it.Well when they hit it on the range they were fresh and was able to maintain that high swing speed for the few balls they hit.We both know that by the time you play 18 your a little tired and some swing speeds drop 10 MPH.Thats not good. So if you do find a shaft you like don't jump all over it unless you have a jar of Vaseline 500 Super Lube.
Club we have a PGA Superstore here in Atlanta that will blow your mind.I could spend a whole day and still not see everything.I got my shaft based on swing speed plus found one to help with the flight of ball.I always hit a draw but this shaft is so stiff(fuck you KB) it is hard to hit one.I can aim down the left side of the fairway and know it's going to come back a little right with a slight fade or stay striaght.I really have to slow my swing down now to hit a hook so I can get my hands thru to turn it over.I have two drivers with the same shaft but one is a 7.5 and the other is a 8.5. If I'm playing a wide open course I will hit the 7.5 but if it's a tight course it's the 8.5 all day.The higher the loft the easier it is to control.I give up some distance when I play the 8.5 but it's worth it.
From what I can see, your driver is bent at a 90 degree angle and your follow through has a high finish

Fun thing about the PGA show was Orange County National has a round, yes round, driving range. They fill the entire thing with manufacturers and you just walk around and see all the new stuff, I'm guessing I swung about 100 different clubs 20 times each, couldn't move the next day. Or maybe that was drank a 100 beers and couldn't move the next day. Too close to call
