Fujikura Ventus Blue VeloCore Golf Shaft Review

The Fujikura Ventus model introduced VeloCore last year. It took some time before I acquired a comprehensive array of the shafts to measure. The current count on their website is 40 models. It takes me 20 minutes to do a full set of measurements of a shaft. To measure the full matrix of 40 shafts is a few days work in the shop. This and the next few reviews cover representative samples of the Ventus VeloCore driver shafts.

Lets start with what Fujikura tells us on their website and then look at how that translates into what the measurements so us.

Nippon Regio Formula Plus Driver Shafts Review

It has been 9 years since I looked at the first generation Nippon Regio Driver shafts. That review included only one of the three models. In this review, all three models were measured and compared. While Nippon is well know for their iron shafts, the driver shafts in the US are not popular. That is an understatement, they are virtually unknown. Over the last several years a few of my long term affiliated trainers and players have raved about their experience with the Regio Formula Plus driver shafts.

If you do not follow my YouTube Channel, Devoted Golfer, this is Mark Pekarek discussing the N.S. Pro Regio Formula + driver shaft designs:

As with all Nippon golf shafts, the quality and consistency of the Regio Formula Plus Shafts are second to none. They are all made in Japan, expensive, and reflect the attention to quality that we expect from Japanese made products.

UST LIN-Q Blue & Red Driver Shaft Review

I have limited access to UST shafts as they do not provide review samples. In looking at the UST website they have provided accurate EI profiles of the LIN-Q product line. I would expect as much as they own one of my EI instruments. Carbon fiber materials are constantly being improved. UST tells us that they used the latest generation TORAY prepreg in the LIN-Q.
