If that doesn't help out, it is a swing problem. I had a friend of mine with a 10.5 loft driver, and a low kickpoint shaft hitting the ball 20 feet off the ground at the beginning of the year. I worked with him for about 15 minutes and it turned out he was getting stuck with his weight too far back, which had him throwing his hands at the ball to compensate. That led to closed face and a really low ball flight. We got his weight shift fixed by promoting more turn rather than arms and now he's shooting mid 70s consistently, carrying a handicap of 2.7 this year, along with two mini tournament wins.

If the new shaft doesn't help, consult a pro.
