Limited-edition Fujikura Ventus TR Blue Patriot Edition shaft announced
In collaboration with Folds of Honor, Fujikura has announced a limited run of its Fujikura Ventus TR Blue shafts, featuring a digital camouflage finish.
As a refresher, the Ventus TR Blue was developed as an addition to the Ventus lineup utilizing in-depth ENSO analytics and working closely with tour players. Like the original Ventus Blue, the TR version is a mid-launch shaft, except it’s stiffer in the mid/handle section to improve stability and consistency of strike.
While VeloCore is still used throughout the Ventus TR shaft, the new construction features “Spread Tow” fabric in the butt-end section to increase torsional stiffness. Spread Tow, essentially, is a checkerboard-like design that weaves fibers together to increase strength and reduce weight. According to Fujikura, the torque is 10 percent stiffer in the section that uses this design.
Folds of Honor has provided over 51,000 educational scholarships for children and spouses of disabled or fallen military and first responders since 2007.
Available in limited quantities in both 6 S and 6 X offerings via Fujikura Charter Dealers. The price is $350 per shaft.
A portion of the sale benefits Folds of Honor.

The first wedge has made its way to the Three Swing Challenge! This week we have the WedgeWorks A+ grind that was recently released by Vokey. BK is looking for a new 60-degree wedge, and this could be a contender.
Why three swings?
Many years ago, the legendary Barney Adams, founder of Adams Golf told us this:
“My formula as a fitter was three shots only. I discounted No. 1 just because it was the first one, counted 100 percent of No. 2 and discounted No. 3 because the player was starting to adjust.”
