Long sigh...... Nike takes up 11 of 14 slots in my bag right now and my initial response is, well, disappointment. I thought for a long time Nike rivaled Titleist for pure traditional looking and performing clubs. I even forgave the candy apple red and bagged a CP 2.0 fairway because the thing performed.... but this?

Does anyone know if the VR Pro CBs will still be available? ... A pure, traditional set of clubs that are firmly in the bag. I don't need neon yellow irons, no sir.
[/quote]sure they'll still be available nike customer support is amazing 1 ring someone picks up. They don't sell to the public. But to my understanding you can still get any nike club

Christ these are ugly. Who the hell actually sits down and decides this color scheme? Pretty obvious from all the posts they clearly botched this.

Honestly I have the mm protos love them but these are not bad in my opinion. Yes the black is tacky put your hitting a golf ball and never see the back of the club while you swing only the top. If I was not one of the lucky 40 I would game the pro combos
[/quote]not doubting you Eric but it seems that every has the mm proto irons. What was the process in getting them
[/quote]

What do you mean? I received 16 out of 40
[/quote]that's awesome man. How hard were they to get.

[Pritam]

Is there a link to the replay of the announcement? Would love to actually watch it? Did Tiger and Rory confirm that they will be playing these irons?

[jemehl]

Will any of you guys be there tomorrow for practice round?

[gambit]

I don't care for them, and glad I don't. Didn't need another set and now I save some $$$.

[/quote]who cares about the color if the club makes you a better golfer. Seriously look at that guy shot 74 but has those awful looking clubs.

Wait and then in top of this...we have to wait 6 weeks to even pre order this? What ... In ... The ...

As a palate cleanser, Johnny Football 2/7, 29 yards vs Washington.

That's all I've been doing.. watching the Browns with Nike in the background heh.. Cleveland offense looks pretty sad right now, but defense is on point!

looks like the PVD is not very thick looking at the raw forging

[edryer3]

I would like to compare my current VR Forged Pro Combos to the new Vapor Pro Combos. To see the difference! Not gonna knock it until I try it!!!

[Eric05]

Also with them dropping the price of the woods what's to come with them? Doesn't make sense it's just irons every year nike comes out with something

[Stetson]

It is actually very comforting to know these irons will unequivocally not work for my swing, no fallacies for me!!

Im not able to download the spec pdf for some reason.

Can anyone give me the cliff notes on the lofts , offsets and such. Anything noteable about the three sets or pretty much in line woth most GI, Mid, and player offerings?
[/quote]

Lofts are 1 stronger for the combos, 3 for the GI.

[TheMoneyShot]

Did they announce the price point of these irons?

[shakey]

A little, well...maybe a lot, of lead tape and the black goes away.

Being a Jordan collector kinda new how the release was gonna work. So I got a call got lucky

[Kwward11]

I think red and black in these irons would have looked great.. the green will grow on everyone, but as of right now its random and doesnt scream Nike Golf to me. Ah well, still love the red coverts!

[IHFN]

I don't think the black is bad. But the swoosh is what is terrible. That color would be the first thing I'd change. If you tried to imagine it with a red swoosh, or a white one, or a any color in the entire color spectrum that any human can see except for the current one, it would be better looking.

[topr]

These will be discounted before the end of Q1 next year.

[Yepyukon]

I am chuckeling at everyone saying they are not going to even give these a shot by looking at a picture. Same thing happened when the Covert driver was released and people saw red.

I am glad they went back to 13 grooves on the face.

[wldchld22]

But the proto was perfect! Everyone said it was perfect. Everyone wanted one. Rory won the Open with a black and grey club...

Then this happened

What do you think? Yes or no?

[BeanieAZ]

Maybe they'll release a Driver next week on Kimmel...

[Ampire2121]

Majority of us may hate it on here but the rest of the world seems to like it.... Looking at the comments on nike IG and there is a lot of positive comments on there...all younger generation

Market nike is going after

[Birdie Wooster]

Do these remind anyone of forged S55's? And that is not a bad thing! It will be easy enough to remove the volt paint off the swoosh, the black will look fine IMO. Can't wait to see them, and can't wait for the guys at Golfworks to measure the m.o.i and the c dimension to see if the sweet spot realy is centered.

[StarFleetGolfer]

I will definitely try them

[wldchld22]

Right cuz those kids will convince their parents they need $1k blades
