Default GROWTH too aggressive, TREND too conservative - what to do?

I am working on projecting some data that is non-linear. the TREND function
gives me a line that is too conservative in its estimates, but GROWTH gives
me an exponential line that is way too aggressive.

Is there another function I can use?
Can I combine these functions meaningfully?
Is there a way to tweak GROWTH to be less aggressive?
Any other ideas?
