High Driver Spin
Is there is any correlation to a higher than desired spin rate off the driver and the pattern of an individual? I'm a swinger who tends to float load and have a double-shift to the elbow plane. I incorporate as close to max trigger delay as I'm able to. My ball flight in general would probably be considered low, particularly with the driver. However I've always had a spin rate that is higher than optimum (in the 3700 to 4000 rpm range). After a fitting today, they were able to get me down to something closer to 3500 rpms (with a ball speed of 156 to 160 mph), with launch angles in the 12 to 14 degree range using a 9.5 degree driver.

I realize that the equipment can only get me to a certain point. Are there any components (or compensations) in my swing that might be producing this kind of spin? I realize it might be a tough call if you haven't seen my swing, but I'm curious if employing certain variations of components could have a tendency to create these kind of driver launch conditions.
