A good launch monitor session with a qualified fitter will give you a pretty good picture of what is going on. It does sound like you are generating a bit too much spin, but you'll find out for sure. I'm guessing (as if I was qualified to make such a guess ) that you will end up with a shaft more in the mid to high 60 grams (maybe low 70s). It will probably be a little lower torque to tone the spin down.

Actually if you like the V2 feel, it might work out well in the next heavier version. As you go up in weight with the V2, the ball flight will come down a bit and the spin should as well (a little lower torque value in the heavier weights). If you can get that without the boardy feel some low torque, tip stiff shafts have then you should be in good shape. Your fitting will help you decide what is best. Good luck!
