Spencer Reynolds (Product and Brand Manager for Fujikura Golf) tells all about the new Fujikura AXIOM line of carbon iron shafts. We also speculate on how and when graphite iron shaft will become more commonplace on the PGA Tour.
Really like the fact you get Spencer on the show. It really helps the learning journey of what Fujikura does to create the new products. More information makes it easy to make a good decision. Have been looking for a while for a shaft that can improve my 2 iron. Thanks to Spencer and thanks to Cool clubs. Great info. Great Podcast. Great product.
If they had no upcharge in a new set of clubs, they would kill the market ...Like they have on tour with Velocore ...With a steep price tag, they aren't in everyone's budget but I wouldn't hesitate to put them in full bag If I was playing full time (which I'm not hehe) ....Only gone for 105S in 4 iron and 2 iron atm, going to test the 125X and 105S soon out of curiosity
Here is the official response from Fujikura: "We would generally recommend sticking to the 1” tipping that coincides with the PW. There is room if a player wanted the wedge to play stiffer to tip an extra .5”, but 1” would be sufficient."
Can you describe the feel differences between say a DG S300 vs the 125? I am interested but have always found graphite iron shafts to feel kind of dead feeling. Has the Axiom solved that? Thanks
The 125g version has been delayed compared to the other models I do have a set myself and they feel outstanding, I have played modus 120 X for a long tome so hard for me to compare to DG S300. I will say that I can shape the 12 Axiom, it is high-flighted but very controlled. I am only a couple of games in with them.... but they are staying in the bag!
Here is the official response from Fujikura: "For now, I’d recommend utilizing each length parallel for the appropriate corresponding iron. You could potentially reduce the tipping on the 6iron if you’d like it to play slightly softer."
