5. Why do you want to test Fujikura's newest line of Ventus TR shafts?

I have high swing speed (topped at 124mph as measured by GC3 last week) and I believe my driver stability is holding me back. The velocore tech could be a game changer for me in terms of stability and I think I could add a few MPH of CHS with it as well.

I take weekly lessons and my coach has been recommending that I look at getting a Ventus to help me get over the hump and breakthrough in my driving game.

5. Why do you want to test Fujikura's newest line of Ventus TR shafts?

 

I was using the Ventus blue in driver and 3 wood and was not seeing results I was looking for. Felt the ball was not doing what I was hoping for. Was looking for a little firmer and more controllable flight. I’m naturally a low spin a feel the control of the TR line with the launch of the red would fit based on shaft numbers.

6. Are you willing to do an in-depth written review, with high quality photos, and future updates?

 

Yes. Would also include Shot data in a controlled environment.

GolfWRX has teamed up with Fujikura for an extremely exciting testing opportunity for our members! We are looking for 4 of our members to test out and review Fujikura's Ventus TR Black and Red shafts, which just released today. The extended VENTUS TR line now features three launch profiles (mid-high, mid, and low) that are  designed specifically to stiffen torque in the section of the shaft where golfers need it most, leading to increased stability and consistency.  Each VENTUS TR profile provides similar feel to its original VENTUS counterpart, but with enhanced stiffness and reduced launch and spin. 

About Fujikura VENTUS TR Black (Low Launch/Low Spin)
The stiffest VENTUS profile to date. As a shaft designed for players with a rapid transition, spread tow fabric reinforces the mid/handle section even further from original VENTUS Black, holding up to even the most aggressive moves to the golf ball. 

About Fujikura VENTUS TR Red (Mid-High Launch/Mid-Low Spin)

The softest tip section of the TR line-up is ideal for players seeking a mid-high launch profile with controlled spin and increased stability.

3. Cobra ltdx ls 9* with a Mitsubishi tensei pro orange 1k 60tx

4. Ventus tr black 6x. I could do 7x too but prefer 6x

5. mainly I tested and gamed the Ventus black 6x previously before landing on the tpo and found it was in my personal feels a little loose on the handle section during my transition. I felt I had to almost wait at the top of my swing to have a sense of club head. My current shaft gives me that feel. I do believe the reinforcement of the 1k fiber helps in that aspect. From what I read about the tr black and the spread tow velocore up all the way to the handle it almost felt like they address the issues I personally had with it even though I never told them that. Therefore I am curious if they resolve of what I feel lacked in the Ventus black. 
5. Most definitely I felt like I just did an in depth review minus the pictures haha
