Leading golf shaft manufacturer Fujikura has introduced a limited-edition shaft to mark the continuation of its long-standing partnership with military charity Folds of Honor while celebrating the 250th anniversary of the United States’ Declaration of Independence.
The special-edition VENTUS TR USA 250th Anniversary shaft combines Tour-proven VENTUS TR performance with a distinctive and striking design, featuring the iconic patriot red, white and blue colorway, along with the Folds of Honor logo and a commemorative ‘250’ emblem to acknowledge the historic date in the country’s history.
Available exclusively through select Fujikura Charter Dealers, the VENTUS TR USA 250th Anniversary shaft is the first in the new TR Blue and TR Black profiles featuring VeloCore+ technology. The range includes TR Blue 50-R, TR Blue 50-S, TR Blue 60-S, TR Blue 60-X, TR Black 60-S and TR Black 60-X.
Built with Fujikura’s VeloCore+ technology, VENTUS TR delivers exceptional clubhead stability throughout the swing, promoting consistent center-face contact, tighter dispersion and increased control. The addition of premium Spread Tow material in the handle section enhances stability without compromising feel, giving golfers the confidence to perform under pressure.
Since 2007, Folds of Honor has provided life-changing educational scholarships to the families of America’s military heroes. In recent years, the organization has expanded its mission to include the families of first responders, awarding more than 73,000 scholarships to date.
Fujikura has supported Folds of Honor for more than a decade, contributing more than $400,000 through previous limited-edition shaft releases. The VENTUS TR USA 250th Anniversary shaft continues that commitment, while helping to provide educational opportunities for the families of those who have served.
David Schnider, CEO and President of Fujikura, said: “The United States’ 250th Anniversary shaft is an opportunity to recognize the values that have shaped the nation and, more importantly, the people who have dedicated their lives to protecting them.
“Our partnership with Folds of Honor continues to be incredibly meaningful to everyone at Fujikura. This limited-edition release allows us to support an organization that makes a lasting difference to military and first responder families, while offering golfers another special VENTUS design with the performance they expect from our products.”
To complement the limited-edition shaft, Fujikura will also release a series of USA 250th Anniversary accessories, including hats, T-shirts and headcovers.
