From what I've seen the 910 D3 is shallow. But I'd go with what TC said. Getting a shaft to hit low bullets seems like it would get the job done. What you have here is a cool idea though.

Why not just slap a stiff, low launching shaft in your R11?
That's the beauty of the R11
Is that damn basketball season over yet?

Esox,
What about a Cleveland TOUR DST launcher? Honestly not sure how shallow it is, just assuming @ 430cc it is a bit shallow. They seem cheap on ebay so it wouldn't be a costly experiment...

This is a great thread and it touches on a subject I have given a lot of thought to lately. A couple of weeks ago I was paired up with a guy who was playing a new i20 9.5* and his drives only got about 50' off the ground, only carried about 175, but ran out a good 80-100 more yards. This was on a seaside course with moist fairways, I can only imagine the rollout he would get on a firm course. I was blasting away, hitting my usual high drives and was always way behind him. Sure, if there was a forced carry or very moist conidtions he may be in trouble but in most other situations his shot was golden. I have been thinking how cool it would be to have 2 drivers, 1 for ultimate carry and 1 for ultimate roll. I could even probabaly get away with dropping a wedge and keeping both drivers in the bag at all times.
This is confusing to me. Ground = friction / resistance. Shouldn't the ball ultimately go further (assuming no wind) if we keep it in the air longer?
Very interesting. Not to hijack the thread but I have been pondering exactly what I just suggested - a 13.5 3W to replace the D and 3W, but your idea has merit. I've got an old CBB in like 10.5 and can't hit it because the shaft is way too soft. I've never changed a shaft...have to figure that out and maybe give it a shot.um, i hate to say it but...if you could find a Callaway big bertha driver with the shaft combo you're looking for, do it. that club to this day is one of my top 5 drivers. smaller head with a relatively 'short' face
So I'm having a Mitsubishi Rayon Javlin shaft taken from a component 4W and having it put in the 10.5* Orlimar to play at 43". If the experiment works I'll carry my driver, the Orlimar, and my TEE 3W. Pair them with an R11 21* Rescue, my 5-PW TM CBs, three wedges, and a putter.
Picking the reshafted Orilmar up from Golfsmith on Friday.

ESOX, this is a super skim but have you thought about a RBZ Tour 3W? May get that driver distance you want in a smaller shallower head.
