Fujikura 2016 shaft preview

2016 Charter Dealer Woods Guide
fujikuragolf.com
Dear Valued Fujikura Charter Dealer,
It’s been a pretty incredible year at Fujikura, but we’re already looking forward to 2016
and the chance to introduce our latest available line of Charter Dealer shafts. We’re always
excited for the challenge of continued product improvement as well as the opportunity to
demonstrate our commitment to the best possible fitter experience.
Here’s the bottom line: Our line-up for 2016 is better than ever. Fujikura shafts will
continue to set the standard as an aspirational, after-market upgrade for the serious golfer,
driving interest at a retail level and demand for the fitting process at your store.
A few items of note: First, we’re thrilled to have a new technology, XLR8, now available in
a fair cross-section of our shafts. As you’ll read herein, XLR8 brings a whole new dynamic
to several of our trusted shafts but, in short, means faster club head speeds, faster ball
speeds, and more distance. Second, we have worked hard over the past twelve months
to develop a fully flighted system across our entire line of shafts, allowing for greater
flexibility and clarity for both you and your customer.
We are confident that XLR8 and our flighted approach for 2016 will make for a overall
better fitter experience and will deliver maximized performance to your all your customers.
As always, we’re appreciative of your support.
Jeremy Butler, Director of Sales
VISTA PRO
2016
New for 2016, the Vista PRO series replaces our EXS line and recalls
a classic Fujikura label. The 2016 Vista PRO line brings pro-grade
Fujikura technology and tour-inspired design aesthetics to a flighted,
simplified, attainable, and versatile fitter’s line.
TECHNOLOGY SET
The 2016 Vista PRO line benefits from the same Fujikura premium technologies like CAGE,
Maximum Fiber Content, and Phantium which have made Fujikura #1 on tour.
ENSO® OPTIMIZED
Our proprietary enso® technology allows for a holistic approach to shaft design in context
of overall club performance, tracking and accounting for both pre and post impact metrics
of the shaft.
FLIGHTED
All Fujikura shaft designs are flighted and designed to lower launch incrementally with
increasing flex and weight so fitters can fine tune performance within each line.

INTRODUCING FUJIKURA’S XLR8 TECHNOLOGY
XLR8 TO GENERATE SPEED, POWER, DISTANCE
Developed using our proprietary enso® technology, XLR8 means
faster club head speeds, faster ball speeds, and more distance.
Available on three models for 2016, XLR8 creates a stiffer handle and
tip by moving weight into the butt end, generating a more reactive
mid-section and increased kick speed. The result? More efficient
energy transfer to the club head and ball, greater acceleration,
more overall distance, and another hallmark tech advantage from
the engineers at Fujikura.
PRO XLR8
2016
New for 2016, our PRO series is now available with integrated XLR8
technology for faster club head speeds, faster ball speeds, and more
distance. Core HIT technology and PRO characteristics mean greater
stability throughout the swing for more accurate shots.
TECHNOLOGY SET
Building on CAGE, Maximum Carbon Fiber Content, and Phantium, our PRO series also
features 40 TON Carbon Fiber and a design profile which creates a more reactive mid section.
ENSO® OPTIMIZED
Utilizing enso® technology throughout the design process for all shafts featuring XLR8,
Fujikura has been able to develop a unique EI profile that promotes a faster shaft kick, a
lower torque, lower weight and higher balance point.
SPECIFICATIONS All shafts are standard 46” length

SIX XLR8
2016
A classic Fujikura design, the SIX shaft has been engineered with
thinner walls that have the same feel, stability, and control of a
heavier shaft. For 2016, SIX is available with XLR8 technology for
faster club head speeds and more distance.
TECHNOLOGY SET
Designed in part to offset the trend in larger club heads by reallocating core material toward tip
and handle, the SIX’s integrated XLR8 technology accommodates a golfer looking for a highly
responsive shaft with an increased club head speed. The 2016 Fujikura SIX also features our HIT,
CAGE, and Maximum Carbon Fiber technologies.
ENSO® OPTIMIZED
Using 3D Motion Capture, Fujikura’s proprietary enso® system measures thousands of
swings across all shafts recording club performance both pre and post impact, shaft
deflection and twist, and club head performance based on shaft movement.
