Elite players and low-handicap golfers know that the difference in a shaft that fits their swing and one that does not can mean large misses as they lose control of their golf club. Players who have traditionally sacrificed feel to gain control with their driver will love the Ventus shaft. Players who are looking to find more fairways when they are not striking the golf ball well may benefit from the added stability of this shaft. Anytime you are considering upgrading your driver, a formal fitting is the best way to know which shaft gives you the greatest combination of distance and accuracy. Fujikura has meticulously created the Ventus shaft to complement golfers who are looking to dial in their misses and fully optimize their driving performance.
- Full-length pitch 70 Ton carbon fiber in Ventus gives golfers more forgiveness with their driver at high speeds.
- The weave of lighter, 40 Ton, fibers retains the smooth feel of softer shafts without sacrificing performance.
- The mid-launch, low-spin design complements modern drivers and delivers more distance and accuracy.
- Players used to a firmer feeling driver shaft may not enjoy the softer feedback of the Fujikura Ventus shaft.
- The $350 price range may be difficult to justify without enough performance benefits over stock offerings.
- Golfers seeking an ultra-low launch and spin combination will likely prefer a higher bend point shaft.
