A good shaft to lower trajectory?

OK, my 9.5 HiBore XL is due to arrive today so it's getting the Martix Ozik Code 6. But I also have a 10.5 XL that I'm wanting to have reshafted as well. What would be a good canidate for it that would lower my trajectory but not feel like a 2x4. I keep hearing about these Limey's, would one of these do the trick and if so which one? My SS is 100 plus or minus 1 or 2 depending. The 10.5 XL have the fit on gold r flex now and I have to file a flight plan with the airport every time I tee off with it right now.

I got a great deal on the Matrix, but can't afford anything else in that price range.

A Grafalloy ProLaunch Red in stiff would probably do the trick - I had one in my old TM R5 and it felt really nice, but not at all boardy.

Always start with the loft of the club. If the hi-bores are anything like any other Cleveland head I have ever tested then the loft on your 10.5 is really about 12*.

Most of the newer version of the drivers all have internal weighing system, to help getting the ball up and draw enhanced.
You should have looked into a tour model head; for your 10.5 XL, you might try any shaft that's heavier in weight and higher in flex point. Lots of good shafts out there under $50.

Agree completely, PL red is very under rated. And they can be had for next to nothing

That Fit-On gold shaft is a low kick shaft just look for something with a mid/high or high bend point in your price range.

Thanks everyone, I've ordered a Prolaunch Red to put in the XL 10.5º. We'll see how it works out? It's not like I have a shortage to drivers to choose from, , and the signature doesn't even list the MaltbyCT250 10.5º with the V2 stiff in it.

You Almost rival WBL in the number of drivers you have and must go through. That makes five by my count...im sure there is more you aren't telling us about

Let me know how the Hibore Xl's treat you. I had the original HiBore and I liked it but I've been hitting the Burner pretty good lately.

Although I do like the way the HiBore XL looks.

I love the head, I just haven't found a shaft that's consistent so far. But I love the distance and sound. One of the XL's will be my gamer this season. I have had the 10.5º for awhile now and love it, but my trajectory is WAY to high with the fit on gold reg. flex. I bought the Matrix Ozik initially to go in it, but found the 9.5º on GG for to good of a deal to pass up so the Ozik will go in the 9.5º and the Prolaunch Red in the 10.5º. May the best driver win,
