WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
The Fujikura Ventus Blue with VeloCore is the original-generation Ventus Blue: a mid-launch, low-spin driver shaft with an ultra-stiff tip, built to tighten dispersion and keep ball speed up on off-center hits. It was the first Fujikura shaft with VeloCore, a multi-material bias core that stabilizes the clubhead through impact. We sell it from the 5 to the 8 series, R through TX. 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...
- Want a mid flight with low spin
- Want tighter dispersion and more ball speed on mishits
- Have gamed the original Ventus Blue and want to stay with it
- Want a wide choice of weights: 58.5 g in the 5 series up to 86 g in the 8 series
- Want a fairway wood build in a heavier weight
Not the right fit if you...
- Need more height and spin: Fujikura rates the original Ventus Red mid-high launch, mid spin
- Launch the ball too high even in a stiff shaft: the Ventus Black is rated low launch
- Want the current VeloCore+ core: see the Ventus Blue VeloCore+
How It Plays
Fujikura rates every original Ventus Blue flex we sell mid launch, low spin, mid bend point. Its profile is an ultra-stiff tip, stiff mid and firm handle. The ultra-stiff tip keeps the head from kicking up at impact, while the firm handle gives more feel in the hands than the Ventus Black.
VeloCore is Fujikura's multi-material bias core. It uses full-length Pitch 70 Ton carbon fiber, which Fujikura rates about 150% stronger and more stable than T1100G, with 40 Ton bias layers for feel. The goal is more stability through transition and impact, which means more ball speed and tighter dispersion when you miss the center.
The 5 series weighs 58.5 to 59 g, the 6 series 65 g, the 7 series 76 to 77.5 g and the 8 series 84.5 to 86 g. Torque drops from 3.7 in the 5 R to 2.9 in the 7 X and 8 TX.

| Spin | Mid | Low | Low |
| Bend point | Low | Mid | High |

| Mid | Firm | Stiff | Stiff |
| Handle | Ultra-Stiff | Firm | Ultra-Stiff |

I want the VeloCore model, not the VeloCore+, is this the right shaft?
Yes, this shaft has the VeloCore technology (not VeloCore+)
-
What is the adapter tip to grip length for callaway Elyte?
Callaway drivers like the Elyte have a standard finished playing length that they are built to. For most Callaway drivers, including the Elyte, the standard finished playing length is 45.75 inches.
But the Callaway Elyte driver adds 1" to the final playing length , so the standard "tip to grip" length is 44 3/4"
