What is the optimal driver backspin window across all swing speeds?

The universal sweet spot for modern drivers is 2,100 to 2,600 RPM. Anything above 3,200 RPM creates excessive drag, climbs into the wind, and drops dead with zero rollout. Anything below 1,800 RPM (without sufficient ball speed) risks falling out of the air prematurely. A certified fitter tweaks head loft and shaft profile to lock your spin into this exact window.
