Hi guys. I bought a driver from Walmart at the beginning of Summer, but until recently I could never hit it. I fixed a lot of things in my swing, grip, stance, etc. and I also cut down the shaft an inch. From the middle of the face to the butt of the grip, it is 44.5" after the cut down. I cut it down to make it a little stiffer and more control. Now, about 5/10 times I hit it I hit the toe of the club. I'm thinking that if I wouldn't have cut it down I would be okay with it. I want a new driver that is similar in shape, this driver is kind of shaped like the non-square Nike Sumo's, and with a longer shaft. My average carry is 265 with a good hit and my swing speed is around 100-105. Should I get a stiffer, longer shaft, or should I get one with a Higher kick point? Also, what other drivers are shaped like this? Thanks, Zach.

Driver: Hyper X Tour 10.5* Graffalloy Prolaunch Blue Stiff Shaft

Irons: NDS 3-PW (missing #7, replaced with clone) True Temper Uniflex SpeedStep Shaft
Wedges: Acer XK Tour 56*10 Precision Stiff Shaft, Revolution 60*10 True Temper Wedgeflex

You have a really low loft angle and an x-stiff shaft. How fast are you swinging?

I need to update my signature, I guess. I can't hit that Callaway to save my life. Sorry to confuse anyone. I'm using the one in the post.
