I have a prolaunch red paired with an Adams head I cannot hit, buts it is very low spin when I hit it well. I can't decide if I should buy a forgiving head like an r11s or 910d3 and use the shaft I have, or if I should buy a stock low spin driver such as the Anser. Problem is I can't try the two earlier mentioned with my shaft. If I hit a stock one with 3500rpm spin numbers, what could I expect the prolaunch shaft to knock off of that spin number? I'm sure it's a guess but maybe it could help me make a better decision.

Which Adams head? I just put a red in my Fast 12LS about a month ago.

I think you might be mistaken about what is and isn't a forgiving head.

Alsom the shaft itself does not reduce spin.There are a number of contributing, all relating to yoir swing as well as the equipment factors.

A "low spin driver" doesn't mean that it will be low spin for you.

You need to be professionally fitted.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

Yep, same one.  Mine has been inconsistent...it is not very forgiving on mishits I've found.

I love mine although putting the red in it, from an Axis blue, dramatically changed my ball flight and forced me to hit it better in general. Those reds are unforgiving.

    • Day 23: weird day, and only had a little bit of time. Just did mirror work again, working on where the elbow is in the downswing 
    • I flipped over to this tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it. Anyone else watch? I picked it up during the golf relay event, but seeing these pros out having fun in alternative events was refreshing and entertaining. I’m sure it will be on in reruns in the next week or so, so I won’t spoil the outcome. Im curious what others thought of it. I’m recording it’s later airing to see the beginning. 
    • Day 443 - 2025-12-17 Made a few swings in testing some things out at another academy. Might pop up on someone else's podcast in a few weeks.
    • Day 37 (17 Dec 25) - nine hole round with my good friend.  We got paired up with a couple of the men’s group regulars as part of their shootout.  Started off with a wonderful quad bogie and then a dbl on three to be six over thru three holes.  Game went 180° over the next five as I shot one under (including a chip in birdie on hole six and four up and down 1 putt pars) for a net finish of five over. What could have been a really tough nine became a solid finish due to staying in the moment and not checking out.  Great day in course management and keeping perspective .
    • Day 127 12-17 Backswing and flow practice. Took advantage of the 60 degeee weather(it was 20 degrees Sunday)
