Brand Story
If there are 100 players, 100 different shafts are needed.
This is Fujikura's fitting philosophy.
Fujikura Rubber Co., Ltd. (Fujikura) was founded in 1901. Starting with the manufacture of rubber products, the company began manufacturing carbon golf shafts in 1974. The flagship of Fujikura's shafts is the "Speeder" series, and in particular, the "Speeder EVOLUTION" series, which began sales in 2014, has become a very popular shaft that has boasted the top share in the domestic women's tour for the past few years, achieving the No. 1 usage rate in the 2014 season. Even on the men's tour, the "Speeder Evolution" has been highly praised, with winners emerging after its introduction. It has become a notable presence, attracting attention even from players who had not shown interest before.
Features of "TRAVIL Iron"
・Introducing a new iron shaft that focuses on the landing angle, an essential element for stopping the ball precisely where you aim.
Through extensive testing by numerous tour professionals, we have successfully commercialized a product with a high level of both landing angle and feel.
By compositing carbon, metal, and rubber, we precisely control the smooth feel and snap-back.
Achieve a trajectory that allows you to attack from a steeper angle.
・The landing angle is a crucial factor for stopping the ball where you aim.
In addition to spin rate and launch angle, it is one of the factors that has become clear with the spread of trajectory measurement devices in recent years.
Tour professionals emphasize the landing angle when approaching the green.
What kind of shaft is needed to attack from a steeper angle?
That's where the development of TRAVIL began.
・After repeated testing at tournament venues with many male and female domestic tour players, we narrowed down over 30 types of prototypes.
Compared to their existing clubs, the average landing angle increased by 1.1 degrees, and the one with the best feel was commercialized.
・Adopting Tour Ability Structure, while suppressing stiffness at the grip end and increasing stiffness at the tip, the shaft's tenacity enhances head controllability, creating a shaft that allows for a gradual angle of attack to "aim for the green and stop the ball."
