2025 Ventus White Shaft Review (VeloCore+): Light, Lively, and Surprisingly Stable
If you’ve ever wished the Ventus feel and dispersion would come in a lighter, easier-to-launch profile, Ventus White 2025 is exactly that brief. Fujikura added an all-new White profile to the VeloCore+ family, designed to give players more launch and spin in a lightweight package while keeping the trademark stability Ventus is known for. In this review, we’ll cover what changed, how it feels compared with Red/Blue/Black, who fits it best, and how to build it right for Thailand’s playing conditions. We’ve also embedded independent videos and linked to outside reviews you can trust.

What’s New in 2025 — VeloCore+ Meets “White”
Fujikura expanded the Ventus range in 2025 with a new lightweight White profile. The company describes it as a way to deliver “increased launch and spin” without compromising the consistency and stability that made Ventus a tour and fitter favorite. It’s part of the upgraded VeloCore+ generation, which refines the multi-material bias core to stabilize the clubhead and promote more center-face contact—i.e., tighter dispersion with better feel.
Availability: Fujikura announced White alongside the refreshed HB lineup; retail availability rolled out through Charter Dealers and custom programs in 2025.
Feel & On-Course Impressions
In the hands, White comes across as lively but not loose. The handle section is intentionally softer, the mid transitions smoothly, and the tip is firmer—so you feel the shaft load, but the head doesn’t get wobbly. That’s exactly how several early write-ups framed it: a soft-handle / firm-tip profile that “feels smooth and stable” with higher launch and a touch more spin than Blue for many players. See the summary at PluggedInGolf
Forum feedback backs this up: golfers comparing White and Red often note White “kicks” smoothly and produces noticeably more spin than their Ventus TR Blue baseline, while Red sometimes launches similar but spins marginally lower. Obviously your numbers will vary, but the general theme is: White is the easy-speed, easy-height Ventus. See recent threads on GolfWRX.
“A lighter, softer option for players that need higher launch and spin but still want the consistency.” — summary of PluggedInGolf’s take
Who Ventus White Is (and Isn’t) For
Best suited for:
- Players who benefit from more launch and spin off the driver or 3W (carry is king, especially on softer fairways).
- Golfers who prefer to feel the load in the hands (soft handle) with a tip section that keeps face control.
- Moderate swing speeds seeking a lightweight profile that adds speed without feeling whippy.
Less ideal if:
- You already balloon the ball in the wind (you may fit better into Ventus Blue or Black).
- You like a very boardy handle with minimal deflection (again, Blue/Black/TR profiles are safer bets).
Fujikura’s own guidance places White as a distinct counterpart to the classic trio—the most “helpful” Ventus for launch/spin while aiming to preserve the family’s famous dispersion. Source
Fitting Guide: Weights, Flex & Build Tips
Start with weight you can swing all day. White’s calling card is lightweight performance. If you’re coming from a 60-something gram gamer, demo a similar weight first, then test one step lighter to see if you pick up speed without losing strike pattern. Many players in Thailand’s heat appreciate a lighter build late in the round.
Flex? Match transition and tempo, not ego. The softer handle makes White feel friendlier at the top; don’t automatically jump a flex. Let ball speed, dynamic loft and face control decide.
Tip trimming? If you love the feel but need a touch more control, your builder can tip the shaft modestly to tighten the tip section—especially for fairway woods. (We can build to your fitter’s spec.)
Length & D-weight: A lighter profile can push swing-weight down if you don’t account for head/adapter/grip. We’ll target your preferred D-number and back-weight if needed so the club still “feels like you.”
Heads that pair well: Drivers with adjustable weight tracks (to fine-tune spin/launch) or higher-MOI heads that benefit from a little more dynamic loft. If you’re a low-spin player, White can be a secret carry cheat code.
Ventus White vs Red, Blue, Black
- White vs Red: Both aim to help launch. Players report White often produces a bit more spin at similar launch, which can be the difference between a ball falling out of the sky and one that holds carry. See user comparisons.
- White vs Blue: Blue is the Ventus “center-cut” (mid flight, mid/low spin). If Blue sometimes flies too flat or you struggle to turn it over, White may make launch windows easier.
- White vs Black: Black is the stout, low-spin hammer. If you’re already fighting height and spin, Black will feel like overkill versus White’s easy-speed DNA.
Fujikura’s official positioning reinforces that White adds a fourth, lightweight choice—higher launch/spin while aiming to keep classic Ventus stability.
Specs & Options (At a Glance)
Exact specs vary by weight/flex. The highlight is a lightweight profile with a refined VeloCore+ bias core to keep the head stable while you enjoy easier launch.
- Profile intent: higher launch & spin vs other Ventus profiles (in a lighter build).
- Construction: VeloCore+ multi-material bias core for stability/feel (next-gen of the original VeloCore concept).
- Feel map: softer handle / progressively firmer toward the tip—“smooth, stable, not whippy.”

What Independent Reviews Are Saying (Paraphrased)
PluggedInGolf
Describes White as a lighter, softer option intended for players who need more launch and spin but still want Ventus-grade consistency. The reviewer emphasizes the confidence in dispersion despite the easier flight. Read the review
Inside Golf / PGTAA & Others
Multiple outlets point to White maintaining tight dispersion while giving a distance-friendly launch window, particularly for moderate speeds. See InsideGolf and PGTAA.
Our Fitting Notes for Thailand Conditions
- Humidity & heat: If your tempo drifts late in the round, a lighter White build can keep speed up without tiring you out.
- Wind management: If you play coastal or windy tracks, combine White with a lower-spinning head or a slightly heavier weight to keep flight from floating.
- Fairway wood builds: Trim the tip slightly to avoid a “too active” feel at impact, especially in a 3W off the deck.
- Gapping: Don’t forget fairway lofts—when you add launch via shaft, you can sometimes drop loft half a degree and keep height while gaining carry.

FAQ — 2025 Ventus White
Is Ventus White really “higher launch and spin”?
That’s how Fujikura positions the profile: a lightweight option designed to add launch and spin while keeping classic Ventus stability. It’s the easiest “help” in the family for players who need height.
What does VeloCore+ actually change?
VeloCore+ refines the multi-material bias core (the stiff “skeleton” that resists twisting), with a third premium bias material to enhance feel and stability. The goal is more center-face contact and tighter dispersion.
How does White compare to Red/Blue/Black?
White: easiest launch/spin (lightweight). Red: high launch with a bit less spin than White for many players. Blue: mid flight; the broadest fit. Black: low launch/low spin, stout.
Is White only for slower speeds?
No. While it’s friendly for moderate speeds, stronger players who want speed and height without a loose feel often like White with a heavier weight or light tip trim. Test both.
Price?
Premium pricing similar to other VeloCore+ Ventus wood shafts; check the product page for current Thailand pricing and build options.
Final Verdict
If you’ve always liked Ventus but wanted more free height and a lighter overall feel, the 2025 Ventus White is a must-test. The soft-handle / firm-tip recipe gives you feedback without face wobble, VeloCore+ keeps the strike tight, and the lightweight profile makes it easy to find carry—even late in the round. Get on a launch monitor, try White against your current gamer, and bring your favorite head so we can match the build. We’ll dial weight, length, tip trim, and swing-weight so the club feels like yours—just faster.
