fubuki makes a rediculously nice shaft, i swing about the same speed as you and the 80g x stiff was very controllable. i have no idea how you load the club so this is very generalized. also as everyone else said the ust shafts are very nice love the one in my nike its about 70g.

Whoops, I just re-read through the thread and saw you're looking for something in the 95g range. At that point I would start possibly looking into steel shafts, similar to what Tiger used at the start of his career. I don't know of any good ones though, sorry.

As an aside, the heavier shaft won't necessarily give you more control. Too heavy a shaft will actually be detrimental to your control and the issues are likely swing related rather than due to your driver shaft (especially if you're already using an 85g shaft). I would invite you to make a "My Swing" thread here and you'll get plenty of help to increase the control your have over your shots without changing shafts.

Lets talk about that idea as it is represented by a childs toy, the pull string gyroscope, which has a weighted perimeter, as the head is heavier than the shaft. Does anyone recall a gyro with a perimeter weight lighter than the center or the arm? Of course not. The accuracy of plane is what the gyro is known for and the head is heavy...hmmm @iacas?
