RETURN COSTS & RESTOCKING FEE (ASSEMBLED ITEMS)
🚫 No Returns or Refunds on Assembled Shafts
Please note that all assembled shaft orders are final. Due to the custom nature of this process, we do not accept returns or offer refunds on any assembled shafts. Each order is built to your specifications, and once assembly begins, we are unable to restock or resell the components.
We encourage you to double-check all specs (flex, length, grip, adapter, etc.) before placing your order. If you need help confirming details, our team is happy to assist before you check out.
Returns can be made on non-personalized items and non-assembled items within the US, 60 days after you've received the original order. Items are only accepted on unopened and unused products. Items must be returned in the original packaging.

Fujikura Ventus HB VeloCore+ Hybrid Shaft (Red, Blue, Black)
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
The Fujikura Ventus HB with VeloCore+ is the hybrid shaft in the Ventus line, and the one listing covers all three profiles: Red for a higher flight with more spin, Blue for a mid flight, Black for a low, flat one. The stiff tip and the multi-material bias core keep the head from twisting through the turf, which is where a hybrid usually goes wrong. This is the raw shaft: 42" uncut, 3.0" parallel tip, 0.370" tip diameter, in 18 profile, weight and flex options from a Red 6 R2 at 65 g to a Black 10 X at 106 g. If you build your own clubs or have a shop you trust, this is the listing you want.

Who It's For
Good fit if you...
- Play a Ventus in your driver or fairway and want the same stable, stiff-tipped feel in your hybrid
- Hit hybrids that balloon, hook or both, and want a shaft that holds the face through the turf
- Want to pick your hybrid flight on purpose: Red for height, Blue for mid, Black for a flatter ball
- Build your own clubs or have a fitter who'll tip, cut and install it for you
Not the right fit if you...
- Need a hybrid shaft under 65 g, or need help getting the ball up. The Vista Pro Hybrid runs 48 to 75.5 g and launches high
- Want it screwed into your adjustable hybrid on arrival. Order the assembled Ventus HB and pick your adapter, length and grip
- Want the earlier Ventus hybrid with the original VeloCore core. It's still here as the original Ventus Blue HB, in 6 through 10 series
How It Plays
Three flights from one shaft family. Red has a low bend point and the most spin, so the ball gets up fast and lands steep, which is what most golfers want from a 4 or 5 hybrid. Blue is the middle: mid launch, mid spin, mid bend point. Black has a high bend point and the lowest spin of the three, and it belongs in the hands of someone who already hits a hybrid high and wants it to stop climbing.
The core is the whole point. VeloCore+ is a multi-material bias core that runs the length of the shaft and keeps the tip from twisting on off-center hits. The plus version adds another core material over the original VeloCore. Fujikura's own claim for the HB is tighter dispersion and more speed, and in a hybrid that shows up as the long approach shot that lands pin high instead of a club short.
Heavier than a wood shaft, on purpose. Weights run from 65 g to 106 g, with torque from 3.5 on the Red 6 R2 down to 2.0 on the Black 10 X. A hybrid shaft should sit between your fairway shaft and your iron shafts so the set flows, and the 80 or 90 series is the usual starting point if you play steel irons.
Picking a profile, weight and flex, and what to tip
- Pick the profile by your hybrid flight, not your driver. If you play Ventus Blue in the driver, don't assume Blue in the hybrid. Red is often the better fit there, because the shorter club and the turf take launch away. Match the color to what the hybrid does now, not to what's in the bag.
- Weight before flex. Each series step adds about 10 g. Start a series heavier than your fairway wood shaft and a touch lighter than your iron shafts. If you play 70 g in the fairway and 105 g steel in the irons, the 80 or 90 series is the natural spot. Want more stability? Go up a series before you go up a flex.
- The Red 9 and Blue 10 are the odd ones. On Fujikura's chart the Red 9 X drops to mid launch and spin with a low-mid bend point, and the Blue 10 X steps up to a mid-high bend point. The Red 9 flies a touch flatter than the other Reds, and the Blue 10 keeps the mid launch and spin ratings with a higher kick point.
- Tip trimming. Fujikura's hybrid chart goes by loft: 0" for 15 to 20 degrees, 0.5" for 21 to 23, 1.0" for 24 to 27 and 1.5" for a 28 degree head, and every inch you tip plays about one flex stiffer. The chart is a suggestion, not a rule. Tip first, then butt trim to length.
- Adapter needed for adjustable hosels. The 0.370" tip fits every current hybrid adapter, and you can pick one up from our shaft adapters. Non-adjustable heads with a 0.370" bore take it straight in with epoxy.
