Honestly I moved to Yonex and much prefer the setup over Ventus
But at the end of the day just go see a good fitter and get dialed in

Tader, I think the blue has the best feel and I will switch to it.
I loved the OG white board too.

If you need to demo these shafts, go to Schneider’s Golf Mechanics in Baton Rouge.
Thanks! Going tomorrow.

Which Ventus is most OG WB like with maybe a little more feel?
Black in the latest + version but I would hit the Blue as well, both are good

Blue was spinning a bit more for me. So peak height went up. Carry dropped slightly. You should def go run thru them though. It’s fun to see what each shaft does. Just be ready to get tired. You’ll hit more drivers in that fitting than you do in 2 years!

Sometimes I believe that we all get too hung up on spin numbers on trackman.
The Ei 70 shaft 30 years ago probably had over a 100 wins on tour but if it were compared to today's shafts it would spin off the charts.
The question most of us over 40 should ask ourselves is if we are as strong off the 18th tee as we were off of # 1 and fit ourselves accordingly.

No doubt!
I went in assuming the red would be best for me, but I couldn’t hit it. I ended up getting fit for the velocore+ black 6S.

Amazing. You did that at Schneider’s? The red was interesting for me. Was trying 6-X red and it came off super low. Black 6-S felt great for me too. But 6-X black was on point!

Yeah. My swing isn’t much, just 100 mph clubhead speed, but apparently I have a pretty rapid transition. The other shafts just weren’t stable enough for me. With the black, I feel like I can turn over the club face as hard and as fast as I can, and it still won’t hook.
I’m looking forward to some range testing, to see how it does versus the sim.

Same it’s a great feeling knowing it won’t go left, I’m not a fan of it in fairways or hybrids in any color, the Black + is great in the driver though and I played the OG Blue forever.

I figured out that I can definitely make it go left. I’m going to need some practice with this thing.

Much better today! I’m hitting it mostly straight, occasionally a little draw but usually a slight fade.
Posted on 12/27/25 at 5:09 pm to FieldEngineer
Nice! Yup. Unfortunately we still have to make a good swing at it! I can’t wait to get mine in….

I was promised magic. jk

What does he charge to "sample" the shaft lineup?
Posted on 12/28/25 at 6:23 am to TaderSalad
Good question. He didn’t charge me specifically for the fitting. I had a bay reserved. And we went thru the bag together. Check his site out and you can book him: (Looks like he does have a Club Fitting option and it’s very reasonable!)

I think it was $75 for an hour, though we went over an hour and he wasn’t trying to rush me or anything.

Appreciate both responses. That ain't bat at all. I'll have to go check him out.
Posted on 12/28/25 at 6:08 pm to TaderSalad
Do it! It’s a ton of fun to go thru all of the options right in BR!
