Brand Story
If there are 100 players, 100 shafts are needed.
That is Fujikura's fitting philosophy.
Fujikura Rubber Industries, Ltd. (Fujikura) was founded in 1901. Starting with the manufacture of rubber products, the company began manufacturing carbon golf shafts in 1974. Fujikura's main shaft is the "Speeder" series, and in particular, the "Speeder EVOLUTION" series, launched in 2014, has become extremely popular, boasting the top market share in the domestic women's tour for the past several years, and achieving the No. 1 usage rate in the 2014 season. Even on the men's tour, the "Speeder Evolution" has received excellent reviews, with winners emerging after its introduction. It has become a notable presence, attracting attention even from players who had previously shown no interest.
Features of the "TRAVIL Iron"
・Introducing a new iron shaft that focuses on the landing angle, an essential element for stopping the ball where you intend.
Through extensive testing by numerous tour professionals, we have 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 aim from above.
・The landing angle is a crucial factor for stopping the ball where you intend.
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 in shots aimed at the green.
What kind of shaft is needed to aim from above?
That's where the development of TRAVIL began.
・We conducted repeated tests at tournament venues targeting many domestic men's and women's tour players, narrowing down from over 30 types of prototypes.
The product that had an average of 1.1 degrees more landing angle compared to the clubs used and offered the best feel was commercialized.
・Adopting Tour Ability Structure, the butt end's rigidity is suppressed while the tip is made highly rigid. The shaft's tenacity enhances head maneuverability, leading to a gentle angle of attack and the birth of a shaft that "aims at the green and stops the ball."
