I have a Tour Edge Exotics Driver in 9*.
Installed is a Fujikura High Launch 55g Stiff Shaft.
I was wondering if there is another shaft option that would give me just
that extra few more yards.

My Weapons:
Driver: Tour Edge Exotics 9* (Fuji High Launch Stiff)
3 Wood: MDGolf Blackhawk (Prolite Stiff)
20* Hybrid: Maxfli Redeemer (High Launch Reg)
Irons (3-PW): Ben Hogan BH-5 (Apex shafts Reg)Wedges: 58* Progen (True Temper Reg) 60* MDGolf Superstrong (True Temper Reg)Putter:...

A driver is ALL about the shaft. Get fitted at a local spot that does it, or, better yet, go to a Callaway demo day and hit the exact same head with several different interchangeable shafts. Guarantee you'll notice a huge difference between shafts.

Saying all that, there's no way I could make any kind of a recommendation without knowing a lot more about your swing type and speed. I'd say that just spending money to try new shafts by replacing them is money poorly spent, though. Try as many different type of shafts at local pro shops until you find a shaft you hit well. I truly believe that the driver head is secondary!!

i would get fitted for a shaft but i really like graffaloys & UST's. try those brands out in a regular flex if you like the 55 gram one you're currently using.

    • The course is playing tough. We’re only about 50 miles away. It very windy here and going to get worse. They’re all dressed like it’s the British Open!
    • Have posted in a while or practiced for that matter. Dealing with a few medical issues. But I was able to practice and film today. I’ve played 5 times this year. Misses have been pulls or heavy shots. I feel this has a lot to do with my lower back issues. When I feel good, I get good rotation and I hit the ball well. Today I felt good. Hips and lower back felt nice and flexible. I worked mainly on the hands feeling from the top. The club head should feel like it’s going down and away from the ball and target at the start of the downswing. The right knee should stay a little flexed at the top. These are the only swing thoughts other than high hands (arms going up) I’ve been focused on. I did PW, 6 iron and Driver today. Here is PW. The hands look better as does the knee in the rehearsal. The knee gets more straight in the actual swing.   My left arm is not straight at impact, which it has never really been. But that’s not the focus of this practice.   6 iron looks better than last time. Driver also looks better than last time. Playing tomorrow. Hopefully my body will cooperate.

    • The way to practice this is not at full speed, even if you do manage to "change" something. But no, not quite like that. That's a late lift, but you still have the early roll, and you stand up too much in that swing (likely in trying to "lift" — the "lift" is relative to your torso, not the ground).
