How are tour pros keeping spin down with more forgiving drivers?

[GTgolfs]

I have noticed that many of the Taylormade guys like Morikawa, Scheffler, and Rory are using the Qi10 driver and not the Qi10 LS. I was wondering how they keep spin down, when it seems like they did not change shafts. When I demoed them my spin went up significantly with the Qi10 compared to the Qi10 LS.

Specifically for the Qi10 there are "dot" versions that only seem to be available to tour pros.

What makes you think they want spin down?

the tour average is close to 2700 rpm in spin. Some of the Ping staff use the max head which is very high spin designed head.

But if we look at the pros they are making contact around the sweet spot of the driver. As the ball goes up the face spin drops and launch goes up. If they keep the ball around 5mm towards the toe and 5mm above center they will the optimal spot on the driver. Keeping it around that is where most are.

also tm heads lately have a lower spin design compared to other manufacturers.

There are lots of titleist staff playing the ts2,tsi2 and tsr2 heads
