Rory's instagram photo of a "New" Nike 2 iron?? Updated with in-hand photos


Recommended Posts

I would imagine it;s forged, nothing on the clubs says it is forged, but knowing Nike, and if it really is replacing the Covert Forged.

We can assume the MM proto will be as well.

Full set please!! Love my Covert Forged. But if there's one thing they could improve is the overall look from address. They're a bit chunky, but totally playable. Great iron, no doubt.

Yeah, if they look anything like the tweeted pic's and not as chunky. I hope they fit in between the CF and the PC. Forgiveness of the CF and feel and playability of the PC!

I've had both and 100% agree. That would be one sweet iron. I'd buy a set!!

They obviously mean multiple 2 irons. Rory isn't going to play CBs.

Rory and the rest of the staffers will still test all prototypes to give feed back to nike.
I believe it's a full set since his 2 iron is all ready dialed in.

anyone have any idea when these will be released was about to order a UDI 2 iron, but i might have to go to Leonard's range (the one adjacent to the Oven) and hope to get picked to try their new stuff and hopefully this club.

Why don't you sign up and get involved with the Nike player testing program. Nike will test quite frequently at the Leonard range.

Forgive me if this has already been posted but spec sheet clearly says "MM Proto Blades"

The question I have is there 2 versions or 3 versions of the club.

We know blade and Rory's 2 iron.

Are the pocket cavities a separate version or just part of the progression?

I think we have at least two sets. Henley's spec sheet says "Blade 3-PW" like you pointed out. The pics of Noh testing show that club to be "Blade-like" all the way through the set, much like the pic of the irons for Henley.

The proto 2 iron pic appears to show much more of a cavity or at least a polymer filled slot. Maybe more of a Pro Combo or Covert Forged replacement type set with this tech all the way through.

This is kind of what I'm thinking too. Perhaps a combo set is in the works with the polymer in the X-6 iron and the 'blade' in the 7-PW. Color me impressed.

Beautiful in-hand pics, thanks Greg!! That looks like a brand new iron, not one that's been used to win a major already.
