I made another post about a fitting and second guessing the club I went with. One of my concerns is during the fitting I seemed to hit the ball much further than I do at home on my Skytrak. I have attached some driver numbers. Top driver is my new Ai Smoke TD 10.5. Bottom is TM M5. Do the carry distances seem accurate based on my other numbers? Due to the weather I have been unable to get outside with the new driver. If these numbers are accurate, what can be done with equipment to get more ball speed and distance? Anything?

Thanks for the responses. I should have stuck with the initial fitting, but I decided to invest more and went down a rabbit hole. I will see how it performs outdoors and go from there. I haven't been truly fitted for options outside of a single manufacturer. Currently gaming the M5, but thought I could benefit from new technology. Thanks again for taking the time to respond

I went to get fitted for a driver. Initially, it was my own fault trying to stay in a certain budget. I got put in a Stealth 2, with a kai'li 60g stiff shaft. I did not mind the feel of it, my problem was getting around all of the negative talk about the Stealth models . So I went back and said I was willing to pay for a newer model. After some more testing, it appeared the Stealth 2 numbers still performed the best. I have a tendency to have low spin numbers. Launch angle is usually 12-15. Swing Speed between 95-105 and ball speed 142-150. Mentally I couldnt get around the advice to stay clear of Stealth 2, so I went back again and I ended up with a AI Smoke TD, 10.5 with a tensei 65g shaft. I have not hit this outdoors yet, but on my Skytrak, it just does not seem to perform. Carry, ball speed, and swing speed all seem lower than my initial fittings. I get the trade off may be accuracy, but I just dont feel great about the fitting. Do certain shafts only go with certain driver heads? Why wouldnt the original shaft be fitted with the TD? I have never been a technical guy, but I am not getting a good feel with thisdriver set up. I have read nothing but great reviews for the AI TD Smoke. Should I wait until I am outdoors before making any changes? I did the true fit multiple times and have multiple different options. Any advice is appreciated. I will say the fitters were more than generous with their time and I am sure someone like me is annoying. Side question, are the carry and distance numbers always far off with Skytrak vs Quad?
