Picking a Shaft

Yesterday I got on a launch monitor and was fit for a 910 D2, 10.5, with an Aldila Rip 60 stiff flex shaft. Club head speed was 91.3 (lower than any other new club I tried), and ball speed was 134.8. Backspin came in at 2335, with a launch agle of 15.3. Given these numbers, might there be a better shaft for me to try before I buy, or have I likely found the set up that maxes out the distance I can get without swing changes to simply generate more club head speed?

You might want to try the Bassara W 50 Stiff with a 910 D2 8.5 or even a D3 head to help keep that spin rate down.

Mark...the numbers you list are a white hit (awesome!!!) on the titleist performance chart.  I would say if it felt good to you, go get it!

Thanks for the responses. Does anyone know where I can find the Titleist Performance Charts online? The club fitter had them in a bound book but I'm interested in reviewing them.
