Why do you want to attend the Fujikura Ventus Experience? Honestly, never been fitted for a shaft. Always picked a shaft based on feel and what I see the ball doing. It would be great to see how poorly I have chosen over the years lol

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

Why do you want to attend the Fujikura Ventus Experience? I advise college players as a Coach on equipment all the time and I also play several brands of clubs and shafts to have giveback to questions I get.

Your brand is one of the top shafts asked for by the players and my friends. Love to see the place there.

I've never had a proper shaft/driver fitting and I've been curious regarding the Ventus since it's release. It would be really cool as well to see behind the scenes and how the shafts are constructed.

Why do you want to attend the Fujikura Ventus Experience? I haven't been able to keep up with the Fujikura lines since I played the re-ax 7 back in a TP Superquad; would love to learn about the new technology and what Fujikura sees as the next generation for shaft technology.

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

Why do you want to attend the Fujikura Ventus Experience? Length has never been a problem driving the ball, however I know I’m leaving something on the table in terms of dispersion and have never been truly fit to a shaft.

Your city and state: Rye, NH

Handicap: 15.1

Current driver and shaft: TaylorMade M6 w/Fujikura Atmos Orange (stiff)

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

Why do you want to attend the Fujikura Ventus EXPERIENCE? I took up golf 2 years ago now that my kids were getting older, and have become obsessed. Learning about the subtleties of different shafts & club settings has brought me from scoring in the 110s to low-to-mid 80s in a very short period of time. Goal is to be a 10 handicap by September 1st. Every bit of knowledge helps.

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

Why do you want to attend the Fujikura Ventus Experience? Always loved Fujikura shafts but haven't had one in the bag for long period of time since the Motore Speeder VC 6.2 Tour Spec. Dabbled with the original Evo (blue), Evo II (orange), Evo IV (lt. blue) and most recently the 569 TR but haven't figured out a good fit. Although I've tried many other brands, I really miss the Fujikura "kick" and would love to get fitted into a Ventus by the manufacturers of the shaft for once.

Why do you want to attend the Fujikura Ventus Experience? I've got more shafts than I can count; Mitsubishi, Matrix, Proxect X, UST, KBS, Steelfiber, Aldila, and of course all kinds of Fujikura including several Rombax series which are some of my favorite shafts of all time. Would love the opportunity to see how they're made.

Driver: Callaway Epic with PX Hzrdus T1100

Commit April 15-17: YES!!! YES!!! YES!!!

Why do I want to attend: I would love to get a behind the scene look at all the engineering that goes into making a graphite shaft. What new exotic materials are being investigated for future shafts? How shafts are made? How are they tested? Will the Ventus dethrone my PX? I would like to know...I will also write a trip report detailing my/our Fujikura Ventus Experience with my fellow WRXers.

 

Thanks Fujikura and GolfWRX for this opportunity.

Why do you want to attend the Fujikura Ventus Experience? I love nothing more to nerd out on golf equipment. As a true club ho, trying every hear and shaft combo I can is a hobby I love. Also, having listened to all of the Pods on WRX, I’ve heard a ton of great things about the Ventus. Also, I would love to leave a super detailed story here after the experience for all of the other WRXers.

Why do you want to attend the Fujikura Ventus Experience? I think excitement more than anything. I have seen so many videos from fittings on YouTube concerning what they can do with a proper shaft fitting from an expert or from the manufacturer directly and I just would love to experience that for the first time.

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

Why do you want to attend the Fujikura Ventus Experience? Like most on here, I’m a club junkie. The biggest difference is that I obsess about shafts. I have gone through several of the top offerings and continue to search for that unicorn. I have yet to try the Ventus but I’m thinking it could give my KK XD a serious run!

Current driver and shaft: Cobra F9 Accra TZ5 65 M5 tipped 3/4'"

Can you commit to April 15th -17th? Yes I can absolutely commit.

Why do you want to attend the Fujikura Ventus Experience? I would love to attend because I have heard amazing things about the Ventus line and it seems to be a great fit for me. I also play 15+ tournaments a year and I need the best performing equipment I can. I am a huge equipment nut and I love the technology and design part of golf. I am an engineering student and for my CAD project I designed my own putter.

Why do you want to attend the Fujikura Ventus Experience? I uniquely have some time off this summer as I change careers giving me the first opportunity to really commit myself to my golf game since high school. This summer is my chance to work really hard at my game, regain my skill level from the past and set the foundation for “adult” life golf (Age 40’s and 50’s+). Between work and starting a family, I just have been too busy to make golf a focal point. I think this summer is my time. Thanks so much

> Omaha, Ne. Handicap is about 3 to start the year. Currently play Cobra King LTD with a Fujikura Pro 73. Yes I can commit. I’d love to gain distance and get better dispersion with a new shaft. Also I’m curious about the shaft making process.

 

I'm out, I can't do Monday, best of luck to everyone

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

Why do you want to attend the Fujikura Ventus Experience? I've never been fit for a driver shaft and as a result I always try to fit myself which works out sometimes and other not. I wonder if my consistency would approve with a proper fitting.

Anytime an offer to see the scientific end of golf design come along, I want to see it. I love stories behind golf gear. How it's made, why someone plays a certain oddball golf, why certain materials were used...basically anything that can be explained to me about golf.
