Description: NOTE: This is the Non-Velocore Version OEM shaft, but I haven't found any difference in the Velocore version compared to these except the cost as new uncut Velocore shafts sell for 350.00 without the grip or sleeve installation & this is a New uncut, that hasn't been played, the new TR red/black painted color version, it is a Ventus Blue TR 5R Regular & I have several of these in stock & with all shafts, they are all slightly different from each other, these new Ventus Blue TR's have a similar tip section as the other Ventus Blues but they are stiffer in the mid & the butt sections than the other Ventus Blue 5R shafts, I measure each shaft individually at the butt, mid & tip section, this gives the buyer the shafts true profile & that is the one I ship to the buyer, since I have multiple shafts of each one listed I give the buyer the choice of which one they want with their purchase, I will list the shaft numbers down below when I get a chance of all the Ventus Blue 5R's & Ventus Blue 5R's, Red/Black & the new Ventus Blue TR 5R-Red/Black that I have in stock at the butt, mid & tip, & the buyer should pick the shaft that has the best numbers for their swing regardless of the shafts paint scheme. Up for sale on Buy-It-Now for 195.00, is a new, uncut 46.5 inch long, Fujikura Ventus Blue TR 5R 55 gram Regular Flex shaft, this is the one of the most popular shafts in the golf world today & the Blue is probably the most popular of the Ventus line & it comes in 3 color schemes, the Ventus Blue 5R, blue color, the Red/Black Ventus Blue 5R & the new Red/Black Ventus Blue TR 5R. This listing is for the TR Ventus Blue 5R, whereas these new TR's have a stiffer mid section and butt section so they will not load as much as the standard Ventus Blue 5S's which have a softer butt & softer mid sections. But the stiffer tip & mid sections will reduce spin to help roll out after the ball lands, they all are a great feeling, premium shaft which have a low torque rating of 3.0 which will not allow the shaft to open up no matter how hard you can swing, this shaft is in New, unused condition, uncut at 46 inches long & the sleeve will add another 1/2 inch & for a Driver or Fairway wood shaft in stiff flex & will be installed with any of the Cobra, Driver or Fairway Wood sleeves installed, such as the newer Bio Cell type sleeves installed, such as the Bio Cell, Bio Cell +, Fly Z, Fly Z+, King LTD Series, F-6, F-7, F-8, F-9 or all pluses, Pro series, Radspeed, Speedzone, LTD, LTDx, Driver or Fairway Wood sleeves installed, or the earlier AMP Cell Pro or AMP Cell MY Fly Driver or Fairway Wood sleeves installed or the older Driver sleeves such as the S-2, S-3, AMP, ZL, ZL Encore or even an L-5V Driver sleeve installed. The shaft will come with a new grip of your choice of which I have many from Golf Pride, Winn, Lamkin, Iomic and many others in all sizes. I will build the shaft to your specs, for length, sleeve setup and ship it out as soon as possible, 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 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 & stiffer mid section to even keep the spin down more over the softer tipped earlier, but also remember that the butt is stiffer also, so the shaft won't load as much as the earlier Ventus Blue's that aren't the TR versions. The different stiffness's of the shaft can help or hinder the players swing, when the butt is stiffer, it doesn't load as much, so therefore doesn't unload also, but if the players tempo & transition are quicker then the stiffer butt helps their tempo, so swing speed, launch conditions, shoulder plane & driver loft as well, so the TR Ventus Blue shaft will suit players with a mid to faster tempo, since the butt section is stiffer than the earlier Ventus Blue 5R's listed below. The TR's also have a stiffer mid section, which will lower the launch & spin, too. Also 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 low torque value at 3.0 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 SHAFT NUMBERS Butt Butt 2 Mid Tip Ventus Blue 5R reg 2.850 3.170 4.240 8.085 Ventus Blue 5R reg 2.725 3.015 3.960 7.365 Ventus Blue 5R reg R/B 2.980 3.305 4.390 8.265 Ventus Blue 5R reg R/B 2.690 2.830 3.800 7.470 Ventus Blue TR 5R reg R/B 3.260 3.420 4.825 8.700 Ventus Blue TR 5R reg R/B 3.210 3.385 4.530 8.150 Ventus Blue TR 5R reg R/B 3.190 3.365 4.490 7.920 NOTE; So we can see a lot by the numbers from measuring the shaft at the butt, butt 2, mid & tip, the first number at the butt is at the 46 inch uncut length, the second butt reading is at the butt if the shaft is shortened to 44.5 inches to play to a stock driver length now days, so we can see it makes the shaft stiffer which in turn doesn't allow it to load as much, then the mid & tip numbers relate to the section & how stiff it is, the larger the number the stiffer it plays & the lower the ball flight, plus the less spin is delivered to the ball which helps it to roll out after it lands, tempo has a great deal to do with butt section readings, if the player has a smooth tempo & builds there swing speed at impact they do better with a softer butt, as this helps the shaft load more thereby increasing swing speed, if the players tempo is faster with a quicker transition they do better with a stiffer butt as the softer butt throws off their tempo, upright swing needs a stiffer tip & mid section, whereas a flatter swing needs a softer mid & tip to help get the ball up more, if you need more information or help deciding which fits your swing the best let me know & I can help & explain it in more detail. Note that all these shafts all have different numbers, this is the way it is with all shafts, not just these, they all vary in the flex rating, I have some others also coming in & some of them will be even softer than these 6 shafts, I highly doubt that any will have a stiffer tip & mid section than the #1 shaft listed above, but you also need to realize that it has the stiffest butt too, once in a great while I will get one that has a stiffer mid & tip like the number 1. shaft & have a softer butt like some of these others but it doesn't happen very often, these shafts are designed to be mid kicks & mid launch, not high kicks with low launch, if that is what your looking for I have others that are softer in the butt & stiffer in the tip & mid section, which are high kicks ( softer butt section), & stiffer tip, I hope this helps, Thanks Sam
