I truly don’t understand your obsession with me. 

I am not obsessed. I just don’t want any points 😉

Has there been a confirmation yet on VeloCore+ Red and Black?

They’ve been spotted and being tested/played on tour, media, YouTube golf influencers (e.g. Good Good). Last time Ventus Blue came out (Spring 2019), the Ventus Red and Black were released together in the Fall 2019. Similar with TR (Blue released in Feb 2022, with Red and Black TR released together August 2022). Anticipate August or September release for Black and Red.

All the good shafts are being released later this year.  VF HY and Ventus Black/Red Velo+.  I CAN'T WAIT!!!

I also noticed that his spin with the G430 MAX is better than the Qi10.  If he gets that smash up with the G430, he would see significant carry distance.  I agree that the clear winner here is the G430 MAX. 

Carry distance and smash factor would improve even more if he can stop slicing power fading the ball. 300 easy, all day long. I mean, great the swing works for him, but that left to right movement, if corrected, would mean he could aim more down the middle of the hole instead of having to take a different club off the tee a lot because there's a line of trees on the left of the tee box, or... hoping to get to the next hole where the fade comes into play on the left-right dogleg.  😉

What the embargo is going on re. the reviews, this thing was released over a week ago? Usually the reviews drop on release date.

And PS .... I agree with the, the Black would have been sweet in a dark matte grey!

A review. Or a test. My experience with og blue vs black were just like this years ago so not sure a ton of value. 
 

Still waiting on the @Club Champion Ian Fraser Og blue vs 2024 blue to set the record straight!

I would say this is the best video yet for the +, but would also like to see blue vs blue. Especially in fairway woods.

Any idea when these newer shafts would show up at Golf Galaxy / Dicks? I reached out to see, they didnt know themselves when (or if) they would stock the new shafts.

Golf galaxy will only have shafts that are provided by the oems as stock shaft options for clubs.

Where can I get one? Interested in testing in my 3-wood.

2 nine hole rounds in and this shaft is as advertised, just super smooth, fairway finder and accurate as they come! I need to get on a monitor to check numbers but it is more consistent and a hair longer than my OG Blue so far.

Mine should arrive Thursday!!!!

[GolfTurkey]

Looks like stock of the 5X has arrived, mine just shipped from Peoples Golf.

[Volinky]

I got mine yesterday. I’ll compare vs my OG blue on the Trackman potentially this afternoon if I get time.

You're doing the Lord's work.

[phizzy30]

In case you guys missed this in the VF thread.  I got to hit 15 balls each for the Ventus Blue Velo+ 6X and WB-63TX today at the range and hit a couple out on the course courtesy of the head pro at my cc.  Velo+ is similar to the OG Blue and the most noticeable difference is feel.  It still has a bit of kick to it but it's smoother than the OG.  Launch/spin are pretty much the same but the Velo+ is more stable in that there's less curve either way.  I'd say its very similar to the Diamana GT with more kick and I could see it as a really good shaft in fairway metal but not driver for me.  Now let's move onto the WB.  Wow, it's stable.  Doesn't wanna move left.  I'd say not quite as anti-left as the TR Black but more so than the VF.  Feel wise it's similar to the Diamana PD in that it's stout and very linear but still has some feel to it.  I couldn't feel much of a kick if any even though it's got a softer tip.  It's a true low/low shaft much like the PD/TR Black/1K Black and I would lump it in this class of shafts in terms of overall similarities with each feeling slightly different from each other.

I am hoping to see some numbers as well this weekend, but two 9 hole rounds in with it in the driver has me having one landing here tomorrow for the fairway wood! 

[StillCantPutt]

I'll have one Thursday and it's going right in my Ping LST 3-wood. Can't wait.

[Redbird]

Paired with my 430 10K, I’m impressed. Played the TR Blue last year and the OG Blue prior to the TR. 

[btyh]

If anyone is planning to try a 7x driver or 8x fairway, and not getting the numbers your looking for, dm me. I'll be the next test mule.

What do you feel are the improvements over the TR Blue (a shaft I am currently playing)?

Feel primarily.  The shaft retains all the good things of the TR, but it swings so smooth.

Agree 100%.   I tested the Velo+ Blue and can say that it is by far the smoothest Ventus shaft.  I've had or tested them all.
