WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
The Fujikura Sakura 40 is an ultra-light, high-launch driver shaft for slower swing speeds. At 47.5 grams with a softened mid and tip, it's made to get the ball in the air with less effort, and it comes in one weight and one flex. It arrives assembled with your choice of adapter and grip, ready to attach to your driver or fairway wood head.

Who It's For
Good fit if you...
- Swing under 75 mph and want more carry
- Want a very light shaft (47.5 g) that's easy to load
- Feel like you're working too hard with a heavier stock shaft
- Want the same Sakura profile in your hybrids and irons
Not the right fit if you...
- Swing faster than 80 mph
- Already launch the ball too high
- Want flex options (the Sakura wood comes in one flex; the Air Speeder comes in R3 to S)
How It Plays
Fujikura softened the mid and tip sections of the Sakura to raise launch and spin. The bend point is low, and Fujikura rates it high launch and mid-high spin.
At 47.5 g with 8.4 degrees of torque, it's light and has plenty of twist, which suits players who don't produce a lot of club speed.
Fujikura uses maximum carbon fiber content for stiffness at a low weight, and its Phantium paint process, which Fujikura says saves up to 6 grams in paint and clear coat.
