The Mitsubishi Fubuki shaft has seen its share of publicity, at least as much as a golf shaft receives! So why has this shaft received so much attention and just what can we expect from this exciting new shaft from Mitsubishi?

Fubuki means Blizzard in Japanese and its only fitting we’ve had to wait until almost winter for its arrival… for the mere mortals anyway. The Fubuki has been seen in the drivers of many top PGA players including Vijah Singh, Phil Mickelson and Richard Johnson, for the good part of 2008′. The results have been no less than stellar.

There is a lot of speculation why the Fubuki has remained long on the wish list for so many. Be sure about one thing, this shaft has seen a demand, maybe unexpectedly, from both the public as well as the tour players. Well, the shaft is now available to authorized dealers, however supply remains somewhat stingy.

Fubuki shaft has many exciting features that include Modulus Differential Technology (MDT), the technical component behind the shaft. MDT incorporates a revolutionary state of the art design consisting of high modulus material combined with specialized, responsive, pitch based fiber in and above the tip section. The shaft is classified as a mid to high kick point shaft with a somewhat generous Torque rating. Most importantly, the overall design allows for various materials to harmoniously work together to promote an enhanced feel and stability. Maybe equally important, MDT offers a significant reduction in golf shaft deformation and lag. This reduction makes it possible to see consistent spin reduction along with a more repeatable dynamic launch angle. The bottom line, this shaft kicks some butt.

The Fubuki inspiration and graphical is an interesting side note. The pure white pearl on the Fubuki shaft is inspired by the meaning of the word “Fubuki.” The graphical element is a “throwing star,” which comes as a modified version of a snowflake, and stems from the Japanese Ninja weaponry… the Japanese word for weapon just happens to be “Buki.” You can surmise your own meaning behind the artwork, but nevertheless it presents another interesting element to an already intriguing shaft.

The Mitsubishi Fubuki has seen anticipation probably never seen before by a shaft. The PGA player confidence backing from some of the biggest names in golf didn’t hurt either. There is no reason to think the performance will not live up to the hype either. If a new shaft is on the horizon, you should definitely consider the Fubuki shaft.
