Up for sale on Buy-It-Now for 165.00, is a new, 46.5 inch long, Fujikura Ventus Blue 5S 55 gram stiff shaft, in the red/black paint color, instead of the blue color, this is the one of the most popular shafts in the golf world today & the 5S is probably the most popular of the Blue line. This shaft the 5S is a little softer in the butt than the 6S, plus it has almost the same mid & tip stiffness so will load more & is a better feeling, premium shaft which has a low torque rating of 3.5 which will not allow the shaft to open up no matter how hard you can swing, this shaft is in New unused condition & for a Driver shaft in stiff flex & will be installed with any of the Tour Edge Exotic, Driver or Fairway Wood sleeves installed, such as the EX-8, EX-9, EXS-10, EXS-220, C-721, or Limited Edition Pro Driver sleeve installed or the EX-9 Fairway Wood sleeve installed. The shaft will come with a new grip of your choice of which I have many from Golf Pride, Winn, Lamkin, Iomic & many others in all sizes. I will also build the shaft to your specs, for length, sleeve setup and ship it out as soon as I get it built to the buyer's specs,  once it has been purchased, this is the shaft that is most used by many Tour Players today in their Driver or Fairway Woods, a very well preforming shaft for players that want a mid/high kick with a stiff tip for a low/mid ball flight with low spin that will allow the ball to roll out after it lands, this shaft as mentioned has a pretty stiff tip section to keep the spin down over softer tipped higher launching, higher spinning shafts, this depends on the players tempo, swing speed, launch conditions, shoulder plane & driver loft as well. It suits players with a mid to slow tempo, since the butt section is a little stiffer than the other shafts, but softer than the Ventus 6S I sold recently & has almost the same tip stiffness, I have listed the numbers from 4 places on this shaft & it can be compared with several others that I have listed to help the buyer better evaluate not only this shaft but others as well, keep in mind that the shafts profile can help you with your accuracy, striking the ball at impact in the sweet spot and distance when it matches your swing parameters, such as tempo, shoulder plane, launch conditions, swing speed & other factors, it has a really low torque value at 3.5 degrees, so it will not open up at impact, even with faster higher swing speed swings. If you have any other questions or need help with any shafts I have listed and how they compare to this shaft and will help with your swing or help in picking a shaft,  please let me know.

NOTE: As we can see from the numbers above the red/black colored shafts are the same as the Blue colored ones & as noted above are not the red Ventus 5S stiff shafts as they have a much softer mid & tip sections, also that can be seen above, by the numbers, what we also can see is that each shaft is slightly different from the others, this is true with all shafts, even the more expensive models as the shaft companies CANNOT duplicate each model, there are many reasons for this but will not go into it now, but beware it is very unlikely that you will ever find two shafts the exact same, the shaft companies know this & that is why their flex range is fairly wide. All of these shafts I have in stock, except the ones marked sold up above at the moment, but I also sell them locally so they may not be in stock as they may have sold, but as time allows I will try to get them listed and as I get others in, those will be listed also. If you are interested in one of these other shaft listed above that I don't have listed yet, instead of the Ventus, please let me know & I will quote you a price. These numbers above relate to the profile of the shaft, the larger the number the stiffer it plays at that section, even though the butt section numbers don't show much difference, remember this reading is right below the grip, so a small difference can make a much larger difference in how the shaft loads & feels, basically the softer the butt the more it loads on the downswing & the more it unloads at impact, accelerating the head through the ball at impact. So since this shaft has been trimmed about 2 inches at the butt, to play shorter the reading is going to be stiffer than at the full 46 inch length & so if I trim it even shorter it will make the butt even stiffer, if you want to know how much let me know what length you want the shaft to be, & I will measure it at that length & for the best accurate way of doing this is to remove your present shaft from the head & measure it from the end of the sleeve to the end of the grip, as there isn't any standard playing length anymore with stock drivers. I also want to state that if we had several of these same exact shafts the numbers would be different, also, as the shafts companies can't make them the same, case in point, I recently had 3 of the Fuji Atmos Blacks, which I bought for a customer in another country, because he wanted 2 with different sleeves on them, I measured all 3 & sent him the numbers, the two he picked were the two softer ones, so remember if you try someone else shaft & it feels really good & think if you get the same it will be the same, there is a very small chance that it is going to happen, I have measured thousands of shafts & the two I sent him were as probably as close together as any two I have found in over 15 years of doing this & they weren't exactly the same either, but were reasonably close as any I have measur
