i gotta disagreee with you here. there is a reason long drivers use a 4* loft, it is because they ARE hitting on the upswing turning that 4* into 14* or whatever, because that gives them less backspin when they hit it high on the driver face and on the upswing. if you hit the ball when you bottom out and use the loft of the driver to get the ball in the air you will probobly get too much backspin and your ball will climb high, and then it seems like it hits a wall and just falls. and not that i am calling you a liar or anything, but are you absolutly sure that your SS was 104 and the launch monitor was calibrated correctly and you hit 300yds! i have read many diffent places that you need a SS of at least 120 before you can hit 300yds. i don't know if the physics allow a driver face to spring a ball that far with that little SS. but i do agree with you about your swinging through the ball and finishing long and high, that has given me an extra 40-50yds as well.
