Mitsubishi Kai’li Red Fairway Shaft Review

Mitsubishi Kai’li Red FW Shaft Review

The Kai’li Red FW is a close profile match the the Mitsubishi Thump F shaft that has been in my bag for years. This shaft has been offered by TaylorMade since 2002. In the 2004 custom shaft list, it is still available at no upcharge. the real beauty of this shaft is that it is a profile match to the Mitsubishi Diamana T+ which I just reviewed. It is offered in heavier weights than the T+ and therefore is a great fairway compliment to the Diamana T+ driver shaft.

Fujikura Ventus TR Blue Fairway Shaft Review

Fujikura Ventus TR Blue FW Driver Shafts Review

There are so many versions of the Fujikura Ventus shafts it is exceedingly difficult to sort them out. What I have noticed with this shaft is the TR logo is on a silver background. Most TR logos are against a gold background. This chart is a comparison of the 6S shaft’s hoop deformation of the silver TR and the gold TR. The original woven carbon which Fujikura calls TOW creates a significant reduction of hoop deformation and an increase in strength of the shaft where it is applied. The silver background TR does not and one can only assume it is a marketing graphic only. These shafts do not contain the same weave applied in the premium versions of the Ventus TR shafts.

The Mitsubishi Tensei AV Limited Shaft is available as a stock shaft in the 2024 TaylorMade Oi10 Drivers and Fairways. While most of my reviews are for premium shafts, many want to know about the standard shafts in off the rack drivers. There are three versions of the shaft, Blue, Fairway and White. The each is modeled on the classic Mitsubishi archetypes.
