Learn more about the new Nike Combo Irons

The golf world, steeped in tradition and sometimes pomp, is showing signs of a more competitive and progressive face. Athletic performance and positioning now is just as much part of the game as the beauty of the courses. This can partially be attributed to the technology coming on the greens. The Golf world can thank Nike for becoming a cutting edge leader in golf technology.

Nike Golf is perhaps the freshest approach to the golf market, leading the way with their aggressive campaign in athletic positioning. Nike combo irons take on the market from beginning to advanced abilities.

The VR Pro Combo is excellent for low to mid handicap players looking to advance their game. It is superb for the more accomplished players demanding exactness in control and performance. Nike is right on for the combo concept and achieves a well-blended set in one bag. The VR combo irons offers versatility, accuracy, forgiveness, distance control and a sleek uniform look. The technology offers a progressive centre of gravity which executes the players’ desired launch. According to testers the longer irons consistently produce a higher ball flight, while the shorter ones are consistent in a shorter ball flight.

When tested, the irons exhibits further forgiveness and manoeuvrability due to their state of the art design. The VR has excellent shaft and grip control continuing to add to the excellent feel of these irons.

The Nike combo irons consist of 3 head designs. The pocket cavity long irons work for a high trajectory, the split cavity midirons and the short blade irons have more workability and feel. The new design also incorporates more grooves on the blades. These grooves are packed closer together for consistency in distance control. The cavity back design of the long irons provides a larger “sweet spot”. These U and V grooves create optimal spin and trajectory as well as distance control.

Nike’s 2- step forging process aligns the grain of the soft 1030 carbon steel which improves feel and performance. The rolled steel is heated and then pounded in its solid form, from which the iron head is made into the designed shape. The result is a very clean, uniform look from top to bottom.

The VR Pro Combo ranges from £900.00 to £1079.00 depending on where you purchase. These irons hold their quality and durability through the test of greens. Nike produces one of the best combo concepts on the market and hold true to the company’s vision on performance- the best quality, the best technology for the best results.
