ACCRA iSteel Red is the second iSteel model. “The first model is now called the iSteel Green. It has long been in my fitting system Its neutral profile is a favorite with many of my clients. Like the iSteel Green, the lower 2/3 of the shaft is stepless.

Fujikura Ventus Red VeloCore Golf Shaft Review

The Fujikura Ventus model introduced VeloCore last year. It took some time before I acquired a compressive 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.

The Dynamic Gold Mid is a new profile from True Temper. Actually it is two profiles, the  Dynamic Gold Mid 130 Tour Issue models are very different from the Dynamic Gold Mid 100 and 115 models. Based on my experience with very good reason.

The OBAN ISAWA GLD Hybrid shaft has much the same profile as the ISAWA GLD Driver Shaft. If you fit into a Driver/Fairway shaft, why not use the same profile in your hybrids. The Isawa GLD hybrid makes that possible. And like the GLD driver shaft, it is one of the most popular profiles for recreational golfers.

LA Golf Shafts G Series Driver Shaft Review

The LA Golf G series is now available in limited quantities.It is made on a 16 sided mandrel unlike the typical smooth mandrel. As you will hear in the video, Jeff Meyer blind tested the same materials in a smooth mandrel and the 12 sided mandrel with some of the top tour players. The feel of the 16 sided mandrel was universally prefered. He talks about some of the other technology in the shaft in this interview. Just recently, the 60-6 model arrived. Those that have tested the shaft have asked for a stiffer model.

If you want to see if a $1000 shaft works for you, schedule a fitting at the Highlands Performance Golf Center or with Fit2Score where we have the full line of LA Golf shafts in our fitting system.
