As the swing speed and ball speed goes up so does spin and launch angle unfortunately. You need to learn how to control them and optimize them.
you can do that with a 350cc head (adam scott 983e) or any of the 400cc+ heads. You need a head that will help you with your MISSES. I am not that HUGE of a high launch high spin player. My misses tend to be low with too much spin. So i employ a Cleveland Comp which has a fairly high launch angle to complement my misses. Also with my grip and swing, i tend to fade it a little. The Comp has 25g redistributed to the heel which helps me draw it a little and keep it from going too far right. For a drawer of a ball, the standard comp may not be good for them.
Find something (in this order) to optimize your launch conditions:
1) find something that looks/sounds good to you that you will have confidence with
2) determine if this driver will help with your misses
3) proceed to shaft/loft combinations that will get you your optimal launch conditions for maximum distance.
Last time i was on a monitor i was swinging in the 105-110 range, 155-163 ball speed, 14-15* of launch angle, 2600-2800rpm of spin, 255-268 yards of carry and a total distance of 265-290.
I'm about maxed out, for me to hit it further i need more swing speed. However before i was "maxed out" i was hitting it 250-270.
Also you need to keep in mind that you REALLY need to go to a qualified fitter who will take into effect your ENTIRE SWING and not just your swing speed and ball speed numbers. Swingers, Hitters, release types, tempos, etc all play into it.
For those reading, do a search on my screenname for a post i made about fitting swingers vs hitters.

PS Yoda, wait until winter for the Retail Nike Sasquate "tour" version. Not as long heel/toe and a little deeper bottom to top. Much more suited to a better player.
