Loft adjustments

So this is weird, I previously played a Ping G410 plus 10* cranked to 11* ( I know that's a lot) but i typically hit it about 225-240 on the fly with a nice fade shape, never really rolling out past 250.
I obviously had a lot of spin and launch with the ball so I traded it for a 9* rad speed.
hitting the rad speed at the range in standard loft I was hitting noticeably lower still with a strong fade shape. I was curious what would happen if I adjusted the loft to 7.5* the lowest it would go, and surprising enough it had a tighter shape and I was blasting them down range.
didn't expect the result of lowering the loft and opening the face to not make it slice more. anyone have a similar experience or explanation?

I don’t have the speed to go that low on the loft.
I did turn down to 9.5 for a bit, but I’m not swinging with speed much over 85mph, but I’m plus 2 launch angle when I take a decent swing.
You must have pretty good swing speed.
Do you know your “launch angle?”
Keep tinkering until you find what you like.

I swing around 95-105
26 years old.
I believe my launch angle is like 11 or 13?
I cant remember from my last visit to the golf store

And you’re only hitting it 230?

Spin has to be 4K+

It’s got to be. OP, you need to look into some different shaft options.

they said with the ping i had 3700 rpm back spin
combined with the 11* loft, it ballooned up alot.
i havent tested the cobra on launch monitor yet

Get some data.
I wish I could touch 100mph.
I’d be pleased with 95!!

Then, you must be mishitting it or something. With that speed, you should be hitting farther than 240

just played with it on tuesday and was crushing it with a nice fade shape about 260-275 total
