If it was fine before then maybe something has changed in your swing. Not having a go at you here but I find too many people look at equipment to correct their faults. A great player can hit almost anything well. I find I hit the ball too high with all my clubs, I have tried different clubs with the same results. The problem is my swing.
I'm no expert on driver shafts but you may want to try a shaft with a high kick point to help keep the ball lower.

im an expert on club making i put clubs together all the time. 1st things 1st it sounds like you shouldve bought the Grafalloy Prolaunch Red shaft (ping charges no extra for this and the HIGH LAUNCH v2) do you normally hit it about mid trajectory? the G10 head is designed to get it up more and that TFC shaft is a ballooner. thats why its going high. i would recoomend a Graffaloy Prolanuch Platinum.

His swing speed is 85 MPH tops, him getting a low launch shaft won't optimize his carry. It sounds like a swing issue to me, since it did work really well in the beginning. The reason I say this is is I had the same problem. I went and got lessons and it wasn't the TFC shaft. My grip was too weak, leaving the club face wide open, basically just ballooning the ball.

Had the same problem just recently with my G10 3Wood, hitting fine and straight down the middle till a couple of weeks ago started ballooning and doing power fades (almost slice). Had myself checked- weak grip and started standing far from the ball was the problem now am hitting it right again. Have yourself checked out. Peace!

      Retaining Trail Knee Flex in the Backswing

      By iacas · Posted

      Thanks but honestly… I don't know any other way. I don't mind being wrong so long as I know where to go from there. I don't like being wrong — I'd love to get things right (which is different than "being right"). I recommend grabbing a furniture slider or a paper plate or something, and doing something like this: First, make a swing where you let your trail foot swing out as you turn, then twist that foot back in. From DL and FO, it'll look like this: Then, during a regular backswing, try to twist your foot in slightly (demonstrated in the left image): You'll notice a crease along the trail side of your hip, your pelvis will "fold" into that thigh (internal rotation of the hip joint), and your "bits" will be squished a little between your pelvis and your thigh. Ben Hogan said once: "At the top of the back swing the groin muscle on the inside of your rt [sic] leg near your right nut will tighten," Hogan wrote. "This subtle feeling of tightness there tells you that you have made the correct move back from the ball." I don't know about that, but you will probably feel something down around that area.

      Yep. I think it will start to feel even more athletic when we start on the downswing stuff later.  I know, it's just I want to be younger so I have more time to enjoy the changes. 🙂

      I need to drop a couple of stone. 🙂 😛    Yep. Yeah, but in the end, it feels more athletic, like you're actually using your legs, yeah? As you know… we use the best available info we have. Like others, I was fooled a little by 2D images for awhile (moving or still). Unlike others, I've learned and grown and moved on since then, while they're still looking at their images (often from lousy camera angles).
