What Is Enso? Inside the Enso Studio at Fujikura Headquarters
GolfWRXers got the chance to take a peek at some of the most interesting and advanced technology in the golf equipment world at Fujikura headquarters in Carlsbad, California: the company’s Enso technology.
What Is Enso?
Via Fujikura: Enso is Fujikura’s proprietary motion capture technology system that provides a detailed analysis of how a shaft behaves during the golf swing. The result is a more thorough understanding of how various shaft profiles perform across a wide array of player swing types.
Enso Measures:
- Club performance during a swing pre and post-impact
- Shaft deflection and twist during the swing
- Club head placement upon the impact of the ball
- Club head performance based on shaft movement

Enso’s role in Axiom development
GolfWRX’s Brian Knudson talked with Fujikura’s own Andrew Hoang about Enso, the Enso studio, and how they used their Enso technology to see exactly how VeloCore technology would perform inside of an iron shaft during Axiom development.

Neal Shipley, AKA, the “Big Fridge’s,” custom stamping
Neal Shipley was the first to admit that he enjoyed his food while in college. But since his days at Ohio State, he’s slimmed down and earned a PGA Tour Card.
That hasn’t stopped him from having fun with his wedge stampings, though it’s led to some misunderstandings.
On the 54 (degree), we have ‘Big Fudge,'” Shipley told GolfWRX. “It was supposed to be ‘Big Fridge,’ so this happened a little while ago. ‘Big Fridge’ was a nickname between my college teammates and I, with ‘fridge’ meaning stomach, a big stomach.

“We told the Ping guys to put … ‘Big Fridge’ on it, and I think maybe some bad cell service or something, and they thought I said ‘fudge,’ so they put fudge on it.”
On Shipley’s 50-degree he also continues the food theme, this time with his go-to order at the “Golden Arches,” and his stamping “DONS 7.”
“The number 7 meal, the two cheeseburger meal, that was my McDonald’s order, back when I would have McDonald’s frequently,” Shipley shared.
