Can you commit to April 15th -17th? Yes

Why do you want to attend the Fujikura Ventus Experience? Been trying to attend a special event like this via GolfWRX for some time. I'm a golf gear head and would love to compare current shaft to what the Ventus has to offer.

Your city and state: **Minocqua, WI**

Handicap: **3**

Current driver and shaft: **Callaway Epic Sub Zero, ATMOS TS Season Opener Edition 6S**

Can you commit to April 15th -17th? **Yes**

Why do you want to attend the Fujikura Ventus Experience? **I've been a Fuji fan ever since I experienced the Speeder 757 in a TM R510 TP in the early 2000's. Since then I have tried many different shafts, but always end up gaming Fuji shafts. From the Speeder 757, to a Rombax 6Z08 in TM Burners, R7 & 9's, to a Motore Speeder 6.2 TS in a Titleist 910 & 913D3's.

To have the opportunity to participate in something like the Fujikura Ventus Experience would be something I had only dreamed about. Being fairly golf shaft "techy", observing construction and getting fitted by the professionals of my shaft of choice, would be an amazing experience. Thank you for the opportunity!

Btw, chosen or not, Fujikura shafts will still be in my bag.**

Why do you want to attend the Fujikura Ventus Experience? I have always loved Fujikura shafts ever since playing the OG Speeder 757 and I’d love to the design and construction process of their shafts. I’d also like to hopefully see their R&D process.

I'm interested in seeing if the Ventus would be properly fit to someone that has a "slower" swing speed of around 100 mph.

[Johnny T]

Your city and state: Culpeper, VA

Handicap: 17.8

Current driver and shaft: 2017 Taylormade M1 460 10.5* with Fujikura Speeder Evo IV 757

Can you commit to April 15th -17th? Yes

Why do you want to attend the Fujikura Ventus Experience? A few different reasons...

1) I love to tinker and try new things.

2) I find manufacturing and manufacturing processes interesting, no matter what is being made.

3) I’ve never been to Southern California.

4) I’m all in the graphite bandwagon. I really got turned on to Fuji shafts when they released the updated Speeder a few years ago. I messed around with a bunch of other shafts over the past few years but really fell in love when I was fitted into a Speeder Evo IV 757 in early 2018. Fast forward to the summer of 2018 and I had the chance to try the Pro i115 iron shafts. I’ve never liked graphite iron shafts but these converted me. They just worked so well for me. And it would be interesting to see if the Ventus could unseat my beloved Speeder Evo IV, especially with all the fanfare it is receiving.

Current driver and shaft: TaylorMade 2017 M2 w/ Diamana BF 60tx tipped 1 inch

Can you commit to April 15th -17th? Yes

Why do you want to attend the Fujikura Ventus Experience? I obsess over golf, more specifically golf equipment, and would love to see all that Fujikura has to offer. I've played a number of Fuji shafts over the years and have been contemplating their newer shaft offerings for my next driver. Need to dial in the driver.

[Coop_Scoop12]

Handicap: +1.4

Current driver and shaft: Taylormade M4 Accra Concept Series 455 M4

Can you commit to April 15-17th? Yes!

Why do you want to attend the Fujikura Ventus Experience? I have a great desire to develop a greater understanding of shaft fitting and the various materials that are used in the shaft making process. It would be a great opportunity to learn mass amounts of information from one of the companies that has dominated the shaft making industry.

Handicap: 7

Current driver and shaft: Callaway Rogue with Accra T60 M3

Can you commit to April 15th -17th? Yes!!

Why do you want to attend the Fujikura Ventus Experience? Because I have long stated that I have the most ugly/unique repayable swing in the WRX community and would love to have an expert maximize my ugliness with a pro fitting and then a video for all to mock. I feel like I do more

With less better than anyone

Your city and state: Cincinnati, Ohio

Handicap: 4.2

Current driver and shaft: Callaway GBB 2015 w/ Fujikura Speeder 565

Can you commit to April 15th -17th? Yes

Why do you want to attend the Fujikura Ventus Experience? To remove the thought from my mind that I am using a shaft that is not properly fit for me. I have only been fit one time in my life and I walked away feeling unsatisfied with the experience. Since then I have just tinkered until I find a combo that feels right to me. I would love to have a true professional put me in a shaft that I know would be the perfect fit.

Your city and state: Chapel Hill, NC

Handicap: 5.0

Current driver and shaft: Cobra F9, Atmos Black Tour Spec 6s

Can you commit to April 15th -17th? yes

Why do you want to attend the Fujikura Ventus Experience? I know so very little about what makes clubs tick in today's day and age. I'm 40 years old and grew up playing golf when you had Ladies', R-Flex, Stiff and X shafts. Today, there's so much more that goes into shaft selection, what causes certain trajectories, how weight impacts the club, spin rates, etc. I'd love a chance to get a bit more of the inside scoop and learn what to look for in my own clubs going forward. Plus, I've never gotten to do anything in life before that's "swaggy," so this would be a neat treat for me. I'd love the chance to check it out!

Handicap: 2.3

Current driver and shaft: Ping G400 Kuro Kage Dual Core TiNi 60x

Can you commit to April 15th -17th? Yes

Why do you want to attend the Fujikura Ventus Experience? I live in an area with no access to professional club fitters/builders, I started doing repair work and "building" as a hobby/service in my spare time for guys that I know and a couple of local courses. I have limited experience/ability that I gained as a PGA Apprentice for 18months almost 25+ yrs ago, but I am constantly reading/learning to be more of a resource to the folks that I help. I travel nationally for my primary employment, which provides me with access to so many golf "facilities" from Club Champ to big box retailers, where I constantly spend time in hitting bays on launch monitors comparing heads/shafts. I constantly preach to folks that I play with, I can put you in 5 different heads with the "correct" shaft and you will only see a minimal amount of differences...BUT if I give you one head with 5 different shaft profiles, you will see 5 dramatically different results. This experience would greatly enhance my knowledge base, in regards to shaft performance/construction, and the Fujikura line specifically.

 

Thanks for offering such a great experience here

[mbb14]

Your city and state: San Francisco, CA

Handicap: 6.1

Current driver and shaft: Callaway Epic Sub Zero and Fujikura Platinum Speeder 5S

Can you commit to April 15th -17th? Yes

Why do you want to attend the Fujikura Ventus Experience? I have been playing a Fujikara shaft in my driver since I started playing golf with the old Titleist 905 and Speeder shaft. This would give me the opportunity to see how the shafts are made and increase my knowledge. Also, last time I was fit for a shaft my swing speed was 8mph slower so this would allow me to be properly fit.

 

Thank you

Current driver and shaft: Cobra F7, Diamana Thump

Can you commit to April 15th -17th? Yes

Why do you want to attend the Fujikura Ventus Experience? This sounds like a really exciting opportunity. I don’t have the money to try a lot of different shafts. I really enjoy reading the forum and researching shafts. However, my testing is basically limited to whatever is on the used rack at Golf Galaxy whenever upgraded shafts end up there. I think I can provide the perspective of someone who has the physical ability to score much lower than I do, but who has never been properly fitted before.
