re: Golf people, Let's talk driver shafts

The degree of loft affects the backspin the most. Shaft helps control the spin. It's kind of complicating, but usually the more vertical you're onto the ball, the lower the loft you're going to need. If you're flatter in the downswing, a higher loft may give you better performance. It's hard to make a general statement on what a 9.5 or 10.5 would do, without seeing your vertical angle onto the ball.

That actually helped me understand a little. I'm more vertical. I tried to go flatter, but ball striking was inconsistent and draws turned into hooks and fades turned into slices. When I got away from that, I hit way more crisp shots. They may not be going where I want them every time, but they're going to get there with some aggression. 
Knowing that now, I'll probably go ahead and get a lower lofted G20 with a legit shaft, and sell the G15 and repaired F11. Thanks man
