Fujikura ATMOS Shaft Review

More in reviews:.

50 Words or Less

The Fujikura ATMOS shafts allow you to choose your ball flight – high, medium, or low – while retaining similar smooth feel.

Introduction

A flighted series of shafts is nothing new – virtually every manufacturer offers high, medium, and low launching options.  Where Fujikura has innovated with the ATMOS is in keeping the handle of each shaft the same to maintain a consistent feel throughout the line.  I tested each of the new ATMOS shafts to see if this is the key to selecting your perfect launch conditions.

For the ATMOS series, Fujikura brought back their “Tour Spec white” as the base color of the shaft.  The color of the shaft – red, blue, or black – is displayed in the amoeba-esque graphics near the grip and on the branding.  Overall, ATMOS looks sharp without trying too hard or being distracting.

Fujikura delivered on the promise of a consistent feel across the ATMOS line.  While there is a slight difference in the way the tip flexes across the three models, the torque is nearly the same and the butt of each shaft feels similar.  Each of the three shafts produces a solid kick that reminds me a bit of the Fujikura Pro.

Performance

If you want the quick and dirty version, here it is:  each of the ATMOS shafts does the job they’re designed for .  The Black launches the lowest, the Red launches the highest, and the Blue is in the middle.  If you want to get into the weeds of exactly how each performed for me, here we go.

My expectation heading into this testing was that the ATMOS Blue would be the best for me.  While we all want to think we’re outliers, most of us live in the middle of the bell curve, and I’m no exception.  In most lines of shafts, mid-launch is my jam.   The ATMOS Blue did not disappoint : good swings got great results and mediocre swings weren’t punished too badly.  It didn’t invite me to swing out of my shoes, but it held up well to a hard swing without going wide left.

The ATMOS Red was the shaft that most intrigued me based on the specs.  I was curious to see if Fujikura could deliver a shaft that launched high without feeling noodle-y.  By and large, they did.  Though the ATMOS Red is the softest in the tip section, it’s miles from your typical whippy rain-bringer.  You can see in the data that the launch and spin were higher for me, but not wildly so.  This shows that the ATMOS line is ideal for good players who want to really dial in their numbers .

Despite my expectations, the ATMOS Black ended up being my favorite.  The numbers are very similar to the Blue with spin and launch being slightly lower.  What was more important to me was that it kept my wild swings a little straighter .  Again, I love that the differences between these shafts are small and allow you to get exactly what you want.

The Fujikura ATMOS shafts are available in 60, 70, and 80 gram weights in stiff and X flex.  The ATMOS Black is also available in Tour Stiff and Tour X in the 80 gram version.

For the good player seeking to dial in the exact launch conditions and feel that they want, the Fujikura ATMOS shafts are perfect.  The differences in feel are subtle, allowing the golfer to optimize their numbers and get every bit of distance off the tee.  If that sounds appealing to you, book an appointment with your local Fujikura fitter .

Matt what driver loft was used in your test?

I use a PING G LS Tec 10.5* turned down to 9.9*.

What flex were you using?

Matt, thanks for the review. My driver swing speed is 102. I was just fitted by PXG for a new driver and my best results were with the Hazrdus Black in stiff on their prototype 9 degree driver. I purchased a Epic 3 wood today after hitting one for a couple of rounds……loved it……and want to try an Atmos shaft in it. Noticed you liked the X with 105 speed…..should I go for X or do the Stiff?

I would recommend a fitting to get a definitive answer. 105 is a little slow for me, and I prefer a little too stiff to a little too soft, so that’s why I went X.

Enjoy your reviews very much, can you compare Atmos to Evo3? Also out of both shafts which produced the better numbers?

The ATMOS has a more conventional feel, the EVO3 has a “whip crack” feel like I described in that review. I haven’t tested them head to head, so I can’t say which produces better numbers for me.

Nice Review! How did you find the blue vs hzrdus black and yellow?

ATMOS is entirely different from HZRDUS Black or Yellow. Totally different feel.

I love your shaft reviews, keep up the great work.

I was fitted for a shaft in a Ping G 410 LST. I wanted one that was low torque , low spin and high launch. I loved the Fujikura Atmosphere Tour Spec 65. I have gained yardage and accuracy.

Have finally upgraded fairway woods to M4 with R shaft flex. Have been playing Burner FWoods 8+ years old in S flex, no problem. Swing speed 86/90mph. Too flexible?

Are the results good? There’s no standard for what speed should swing what flex, so if the results are good, play it.

Can you compare with tour ad tp-6 with atmos black?

I have a review of the AD-TP here: https://pluggedingolf.com/graphite-designs-tour-ad-tp-shaft-review/

Are these the regular atmos shafts? I was looking at the atmos red ts was wondering how it compared to the project x HZRDUS red shaft?

I have a review of the HZRDUS Red here: https://pluggedingolf.com/project-x-hzrdus-red-shaft-review/

Matt, With your knowledge per Fuji Atmos and Graphite Design AD, I have a question for you! So my current set up is a Graphite Design Tour AD GP 7TX (untipped) with a Taylormade SLDR tour head at 6.75 loft I’m hitting it the best out of any driver set up am able to hit it high when needed. But when I raise the loft to 8 degrees, I overspin. I’m about to put an Atmos Black 6TX into play and hope that I’ll get the same performance or even better (low spin & high launch) so that I can hit a high ball at a higher head loft (8 perhaps) with lower side spin than what I’m probably getting out of the 6.75 loft with a 7TX Graphite Tour AD GP set up. Does the Atmos black profile play stouter than a TX mid launch low spin profile of the Tour ad GP (or even Tour AD MT series)? I don’t mean to put you on the spot here, but I’ve got no other leads in shafts that dramatically lower spin and perform like the Atmos.

I haven’t tested the AD GP, but based on the specs, I would be surprised if the ATMOS Black was substantially lower spin. That said, the way that ATMOS Black works in your hands may be much lower spin than the AD GP. That’s the unpredictable human element.

I currently am gaming a Aldila Rogue Black 60g shaft in a 2016 TM M2 10.5 degree head. I just finished a driver fitting hoping for a better performing combination. My fitter said my 16.5 deg launch angle was too high for my 145 mph ball speed. He had me loft down to 9.5 deg w/ a M4 head and a Tensi CK white shaft. Numbers got better. Which Atmos shaft would compare?

The Tensei White should feel most similar to the ATMOS Black.

Hey matt, gonna get my 25 yr old son a set of m4 irons for xmas but not sure about which shafts to get in them, he hits 5 iron with his old rac irons between 190 and 200 yards with a high flight 7 iron between 160 and 170 so what wud you suggest the standard kuro kage shafts or upgrade to atmos. Thanks Thomas

The best thing to do would be to get your son a fitting. I recommend Club Champion or True Spec. There’s no way for me to give a good recommendation without seeing him in person.

Pingback: Wilson Staff Cortex Driver Review - Plugged In Golf

Matt, I read a review you did of the Fubuki ZT a few years ago. I have the shaft in Callaway 815, and was pleased by how well you liked the club and how well it did for you (285 yards) at the time. I hit high drives, but thank God above, have hit some of my best drives the last 2 years, playing very little, with this club. Could you remember the ZT well enough to compare it to the Atmos? Considering getting the Atmos black in a 70 weight, whereas my ZT is a 60, is there much difference in these two shafts? Both seem to be low spin, I tend to have trouble staying in the correct fairway, which is probably me more than the club. Thanks, I always enjoy reading your reviews.

Honestly, no, I don’t remember the ZT well enough to give you a good comparison. My standard advice applies: get fit, compare the new to your current, and see if it’s worth a change.

Thanks Matt, I would have liked to have made it to CC while they have their special, but i am not going to get there. Thanks again for the reviews, I do enjoy them.

Pingback: 2019 Valero Texas Open Recap - Plugged In Golf

Matt, How do the Tensei Orange and Tour Ad IZ Compare to the Atmos Black? I had the opportunity to test both the Orange and AD IZ, on course. The IZ played stiffer and dispersion was a little tighter which I liked, Orange was surprisingly softer than I expected… if in a launch monitor the orange might have produced a little more ball speed. Either wouldn’t have been a bad choice. X flex in the orange would have played a little more to my liking.

I have reviews of the AD IZ here: https://pluggedingolf.com/graphite-design-tour-ad-iz-shaft-review/ and the Tensei Orange here: https://pluggedingolf.com/mitsubishi-tensei-orange-shaft-review/

Hi Matt. Probably a dumb question but I’ll ask anyway. I just ordered a TM M4-D 9.5* with regular Atmos Red shaft. Of course, I can lower or increase the loft of the TM by 2*. So, if I find the launch angle and spin rate too high, will lowering the loft reduce spin rates? I would normally use a still flex shaft but as I’ve aged, my swing speed has slowed a bit (probably 95 +/- now). Your thoughts? Thanks in advance!

All else equal, yes, lowering the loft will decrease the spin. However, lowering the loft will open the face, which may affect your ability to square the face at impact which could actually cause the spin to go up.

I’m having trouble figuring out the difference between the shaft weights, what does the 40, 50, 60, or 70 numbers actually mean? Is it the stiffness of the shaft? Thanks

The number relates to the weight.

Matt – What is the difference between the Atmos red 5R and the Atmos red 5R2? I am a senior player currently use a Ping G400 10.5 degree, Alta CB Senior flex 55 gram shaft with very good results. Smooth swing in the 85 mph range. Thanks. Duke of the North

R2 is a senior or lite flex.

Matt, The M6 driver and fairway woods come with the Fujikura Atmos Orange. What can this shaft in a regular flex be compared to with the rest of the Atmos line of shafts.

Thanks John

The ATMOS Orange is made just for the M6, it’s not part of the aftermarket line. I haven’t tested it, and I’m not sure where it falls in the ATMOS family.

I am a high handicap golfer what shaft is best for me atmos 6 red 7 red or orange

There’s no way for anyone to accurately answer that question without working with you in person. I would strongly recommend getting a fitting.

Hi, I have a swing speed around 90 and was wondering if the Atmos Orange R flex is much different to the Atmos Red R flex. The orange is my M6 driver and the red my M4 fairway wood.

Thanks for your question. The ATMOS Orange was made just for TaylorMade’s M Series, and we have not tested it, so we can’t offer a comparison to the Red.

Hey Matt, Love the review. How would say the Atmos black compares to the HZRDUS black in terms of stiffness? Would you say that a PX 5.5 is more like a stiff in Fujikura? Or are they comparable 6.0 PX = stiff in Fujikura? Nick

In terms of feel, the ATMOS Black feels half a flex softer than the HZRDUS Black, to me.

I am looking to buy a used set of Cobra F9 speedback irons. I found a set for a very decent price. However, they come with the Atmos black regular flex shirts. I am a high handicapper who sometimes struggles with getting my irons in the air. I really want to buy these because the price is really good but don’t want to hurt what little game I have.

Comparing atmos ts blue 6x and the 7s numbers are real close except weight 7 weights 9 grams more and has a4 point stiffer tip I swing between 100 and 105. I have the 7s in my 3 wood and like the results which do you feel would be better in a sim max

There’s no way for me to say definitively. Do you want a lighter shaft in your driver? What are you playing now?

I bought a set of TM M4s with ATMOS RED 6R flex. I had to buy the 4 iron, A and SW and recovery club individually but they have a 5R flex. I’m a 60 year old 14 handicap golfer. Is the difference between the 6R and 5R material enough to justify the cost of me changing the 5Rs to 6Rs or should I just ignore the difference?

Have you played them yet? Do you feel a difference or see a difference in the performance?

Hi Matt was playing taylormade r11 driver with Fujikura blur 60 regular shaft. Been using for 10 years and just brought a M4 driver with a ATMOS 5 r flex shaft. Is there a big difference between these shafts “? Made fade has turned into a slice . Any insight would be highly appreciated.

Given that you changed both the head and shaft, I can’t draw a hard conclusion about the cause of the slice. You did drop some shaft weight, which may be something your swing isn’t getting along with.

In my opinion, just because a certain shaft performs well in one head does not mean it will in another. The weight of the heads would have to be the same or very close.

Is this a correct assumption?

Yes, this can be the case.

FUJIKURA ATMOS BLACK TOUR SPEC DRIVER SHAFTS

PRODUCT DETAILS

• Product Info

The ATMOS Tour Spec line is geared towards the performance golfer looking to keep the ball flighted down with low spin.

Continuing with Fujikura's  iconic Tour Spec white paint, ATMOS is a true tour flighted line of shafts with a simple color coding  red as the higher launching , blue as mid launch , black as the lowest launch  similarities include keeping the handle flexes the same for feel, but adjusting mid and tip sections for launch and spin to achieve your desired ball flight.

ATMOS Tour Spec is the culmination of key learnings from more than two decades of tour-driven products. The development of ATMOS Tour Spec was an extensive process by which critical player feedback and fitting needs were at the forefront. Recognizing that Tour professionals need to keep the ball flighted down with low spin and that these players have a variety of different swing types and clubhead combinations, it was essential to engineer a variety of options to optimize performance.

Fujikura ATMOS shaft brings three ball-flight options but one consistent feel in the hands

Focused on elite players, the Fujikura ATMOS Tour Spec was designed to cater to the preference of better players to flight the ball lower. Still, ATMOS Tour Spec features three models that segment between a preferred higher flight, a mid flight and a lower flight.

What’s particularly interesting is how the Fujikura ATMOS was developed with a consistent feel in the butt section of the shaft, regardless of which of the three versions a player chooses. The flight is then controlled by the stiffness profile of the mid and tip sections.

Featuring Fujikura's trademark "tour spec white" background coloring, the ATMOS line comes in three different color patterns to distinguish the three different ball flights. The red is for the highest launch, the blue is for a middle flight and the black is for the lowest launch and features the lowest torque ratings in the ATMOS line. That makes it easier for player to understand the sometimes hard-to-decipher world of shaft performance . Of course, a qualified fitter is key to guiding you through any shaft-fitting process. The full line has a weight range of 67-85 grams. That’s slightly heavier than many typical stock shafts played by average golfers, which can be in the range of 40-70 grams.

“Working with tour pros every week we have learned what profiles they prefer and launch conditions they demand so it will be nice to have a new “go-to” shaft with three launch options,” said Pat McCoy, Fujikura tour representative.

Among the PGA Tour players who've switched recently to ATMOS are Gary Woodland (Black), Billy Horschel (Black), Derek Fathauer (Blue) and Ben An (Blue).

The Fujikura ATMOS will be available at Fujikuira dealers March 1 ($300).

Recommended Posts

Elliotmaloney.

For sale is a Fujikura Blue Tour Spec 6S shaft. The length is 42 15/16 inches, this played 44.5 inches in a Titleist driver. I cannot speak to other tips and what it will play with them installed. The prep length is about an inch and a half, I had the tip professionally pulled. The shaft has not been tipped. Please PM me with any questions.

Thanks in advance.

Pure pro are a tackler, more aggressive version of a golf pride tour velvet . I love thenlm.  Dtx have a different texture,  I think that's what @Kenny B plays.

All Pure grips are rubber.  The DTX grip is their version of a full corded grip; very rough.  I like them, but thought I'd give the Pure Pro a try in my irons; very tacky.  They last a long time compared to other grips I've used which seemed to get hard and smooth rather quickly.  The putter grip has a flat front.  I installed the oversize grip on my wife's putter; she likes it, but it's too smooth for my liking, and my putter is counterbalanced and the grip is quite heavy.

If anyone is installing with air, the Pure installer gun is worth the price and especially at 50% off.

I JUST replaced my DTX grips on my irons with the Pure Pro, but left the woods with the DTX.  I should have gotten more while they had them.

I picked up a set of these when I got the notification.  I am curious if anyone had played Iomic and these.   How comparable are they?  Looking for a tacky grip that I can use without a glove.  It's alright most of the time but the golf pride mcc+4 I will occasionally lose grip on when overly hot/humid

I switched from iomic to these.  I find them to have more grip,  more tack and last longer.

The golf pride CP (blue or red cap ) are close for the tack feel.

Pure was originally a spinoff from Star Grips. The folks who left Star for Pure were unhappy about Star's inattention to cosmetics and marketing -- but NOT the formulation of the grips. Star is still in business and still my favorite. Try them. If you liked the feel, handling, and longevity of Pure, you should like Star.

Yes, but GP has a better business model and their grips wear out every 30 rounds of golf.

Thank you for the background info.  I am still relatively new to the golf world so getting some of these tidbits is great!

This really sucks! I love their DTX. Wish I had found out about this sooner. I just ordered a bunch, but they were already sold out of my preferred color.

Just picked up the air attachment and the yellow neon grips! I was looking to regrip this year as I regripped my clubs this spring with GP Velvet and they're already slick and lost most of their tack! Was planning on going with the Lamkin Crossline but this deal was too good. Hoping these will last, sad that their going out of business sale is what turned me to try them.

Thanks for sharing! I'm very excited now! How is the feel overall?

It does indeed. If that is important to you, then I fully understand why you are going to miss Pure.

I'm an engineer. Yes, I appreciate aesthetics, but my primary concern is function. In that regard, Star and Pure are quite similar.

Star does offer a pretty good color choice, but (a) nothing as eye-catching as that neon yellow, (b) only solid colors (I think dispersed into the rubber) -- nothing like the black logo on the light-colored grip. But check it out; you might like it.

I love the feel. Not squishy, but it's not hard and never seems to get hard nor cracked. I have also found that the tack not only lasts a long time, it is restored to "almost new" with a good washing (water and strong detergent or de-greaser).

A litle history here. A friend who is a reseller of a lot of golf components first told me about Star almost 20 years ago. Since I tried them back then:

• They have been the only grip I use on my own clubs.
• I have never had to replace one due to wear nor age. My current irons have had the same grips for over 400 rounds and their feel and tack are still very good. (Yeah, I know that speaks to Star's and Pure's business model. So be it!.)
• I blow grips on and off without tape. (2" of tape over the butt to get it started makes it easier, but far from necessary.) In fact, I just lengthened a driver, which involved removing the grip (with an air compressor), putting in a shaft extension, and blowing the old grip back on. No problems, and the old grip is still fine. The formulation (common to Pure and Star but no other grip I know) retains its elasticity as long as my experience with them.

A lot of people loved Pure Grips... maybe it was just me, but I didn't know they were to an extent built off of another company that still is in business called Star Grips? https://stargrip.com/

I just ordered the Air Grip Gun and a couple grips to test out.

Wow! 32-44 $ for a full set of standard grips?  That's at 75% off right now.  If I was in the market, I'd be all over that...

Just an old newbie golfer, trying to learn and improve 1 club at a time.

Hearing about Pure Grips going out of business is a bummer, man. Their grips had such a unique feel, and they brought good vibes to our swings

Fujikura launches limited-edition Atmos Tour Spec shafts

Fujikura has released limited-edition Atmos Tour Spec shafts to celebrate the 117th U.S. Open, which starts next week. Proceeds will go toward the company’s annual donation to The Folds of Honor .

The shafts will sell for $325, and are based on the company’s Atmos Tour Spec Blue profile. In total, 234 shafts will be sold, half of which will be 60-gram models and half of which will be 70-gram models. Each shaft is individually numbered and laser-etched… and of course, they’re each red, white and blue.

How the idea of shaft frequency began

I have a Fujikura Speeder shaft in my Callaway XR16 Pro Driver, and it is friggen fantastic. Would love to try the Atmos, but have no reason to switch out at this point.

Jun 6, 2017 at 8:54 am

Atmos is the real deal! Great shafts! I just started using them in my driver and 3 wood. I was using Project X red.

Jun 5, 2017 at 10:24 pm

Fujikura is so funny. I hate the feel of their shafts. Mitsubishi/Aldila makes better shafts. How many times can Fujikura re-paint the Speeder and call it something different lol

Three swing challenge: testing ping blueprint s irons.

This week, the intriguing Ping Blueprint S irons get the Three Swing Challenge. Be sure to let us know what you think, and what you want to see tested next!

Why three swings?

Many years ago, the legendary Barney Adams, founder of Adams Golf told us this:

“My formula as a fitter was three shots only. I discounted No. 1 just because it was the first one, counted 100 percent of No. 2 and discounted No. 3 because the player was starting to adjust.”
