Less Than 460cc Driver Head

[MGN]

I currently have a TM M3 driver (460cc head).  I've always felt uncomfortable with the size of a 460cc driver. I bought a used TM M5 Tour (435cc) and although I find it more user friendly and nice to look at set up, it apparently is made for low spin.  Now, with my swing speed, I hit my M3 about 230-240 yds, but with the M5 Tour, I don't seem to get any additional distance and in fact feel like the ball drops off the sky at its peak and I get less distance than with the M3.  (they have the same Tensei Blue 60g Stiff shafts).  What less than 460 cc driver head driver do you folks recommend?

Does a spinner M3 give me a better falling trajectory and therefore more distance?  (seems counter intuitive). 

Thanks.

Have you tinkered with different lofts with the 435cc diver?

And, I would add, tee heights?

No, it sounds to me like you need more spin to keep the ball in the air longer and that’s why the lower spinning head is shorter.

No, I haven't.  Will give it a shot.

I did adjust my tee heights, but the ball still appeared to fall out of the sky instead of still staying up and going further.
