Fujikura Ventus. It’s the range that transformed the shaft industry when it first launched in 2018. And now Fujikura have a brand-new Ventus product that we’re incredibly excited to offer in the True Spec Golf fitting matrix at GolfBox Custom.
It’s called Ventus 24 and the new family replicates the Red, Blue and Black profiles of the original Ventus shaft line-up.
Ventus remains one of the most popular shafts in golf. So why did Fujikura decide to update such an incredibly successful formula? After all, if it ain’t broke why fix it?
The answer to that question is VeloCore+, the next generation of the game changing material and construction technology that made the original Ventus shafts so popular.
FUJIKURA VENTUS 24 AND VELOCORE+
The Ventus 24 range basically gives golfers more of what they want without taking away what they loved about the original Fujikura Ventus profiles.
It may sound easy, but it was a difficult task for Fujikura. It took six years of research and development to copy the original VeloCore but make it better. The result is VeloCore+, which is the secret sauce of the Ventus 24 range.
Launch and spin in the Ventus 24 range is almost identical to the original Ventus models but ball speeds are faster, carry distance is longer, dispersion is tighter and feel is better.
It gives our GolfBox Custom Master Fitters the option to switch players straight into the new Ventus shaft range to improve performance, without any sacrifice.
If you play the original Ventus and like it, you’ve got a lot to gain with the new Ventus 24.
FUJIKURA VENTUS 24 PROFILES
Fujikura’s famous Red, Blue and Black profiles continue in the Ventus 24 range.
The Ventus 24 Blue shaft is bookended by the higher-launching Ventus 24 Red profile and the lower-launching Black model. However, those launch profiles should be compared to one another — the whole Ventus 24 range is skewed to the lower-launching, performance-driven end of the shaft spectrum.
The Ventus 24 Blue model is relatively soft in the handle section making it easy to load. Players who transition from the top slowly and smoothly often prefer the softer feel of the Blue’s handle section. However, the Blue increases in stiffness through the mid-section and features a very stiff tip, making it very consistent.
The Ventus 24 Black shaft has a very stiff handle, stiff mid and very stiff tip section. It creates a firm feel that is popular with players who want to feel minimal flex and movement in the shaft, often suiting those with a quick transition at the top.
Meanwhile, the Ventus 24 Red shaft is a hybrid of the Blue and Black shaft. Its features a stiff and stable handle section that connects with a much softer mid and tip section, creating plenty of movement and flex at the bottom of a swing.
The Ventus 24 range gives our Master Fitters at GolfBox Custom the necessary levers to finetune performance in our fitting bays. Each profile offers distinctive characteristics that align with different swing speeds or influence how the club head is delivered into the ball at impact.
