I swing pretty smoothly but have a pretty high swing speed with driver and for me the V2 is a hammer, I love this thing and it does reward a smooth swing...what I like the best is the control and the low torque of the shaft...very similar to steel...

I hit this driver straight buy want to raise my launch angle to around 14*. Heard a lot of good things about the V2. How do these two shafts compare? Any other shaft recommendations? SS is between 100-104 mph.
What I don't understand, "is why you changed drivers in the first place?" I'd rather has that 16* launch angle then the 10* angle you have now. Niothing wrong with 16*, if the spin rate wasn't too high. Do you know what the spin rate was with the R5?

Not sure what the spin rate was. Our launch monitor at the locak shop doesn't show spin rate. It would balloon on me and I'd get no roll. Not great in windy conditions. And in Casper, WY the wind always blows.
