Project X HZRDUS Smoke Black RDX
Project X HZRDUS Smoke Black RDX is positioned as the best-in-class choice for low-launch, low-spin stability in custom-fit flex and torque shafts for left-handed club parts, delivering a firm mid-to-tip profile that resists twisting under aggressive swings. Compared with the lighter or more vibration-damped offerings on this list, the HZRDUS Black RDX gives clubfitters a technically robust, cost-efficient option for heavy, counterbalanced builds where torque control and shot-shape consistency are priorities.

Fujikura Ventus Blue
Fujikura Ventus Blue holds a market-leader position for balancing high stability with improved feel thanks to VeloCore technology, making it a top pick for left-handed custom-fit flex and torque matching when dispersion and mid-launch are key. Compared to the HZRDUS and some tour-focused models here, Ventus Blue costs a bit more but returns tighter groupings and more predictable torque behavior across flexes, which is valuable for fitters dialing in left-handed performance with minimal vibration.
