Hopefully these turn out decent. On my phone. For those looking to do a Speed/PC combo, here's the 5 and 6. [attachment=2476501:ImageUploadedByGolfWRX Mobile1414525118.938836.jpg]

[/quote]Nice, now go hit them....please:)
[/quote]
Wish I could. Took these out of the box to make sure inventory is right and to take some comparison pics. Then put them back in the box until Thurs night for Friday release.

[quote name='bd59' timestamp='1414434379' post='10358183']I was told Nike would start shipping for all pre orders on 10/31 and delivery would be the following week.[/quote] talked to Nike and was told the same unless you picked expedited shipping.
[/quote]

Went to the shop I ordered it from, I am supposed to get it on launch day. I didn't ask for expedited shipping. I just placed a custom 4-6 iron order.

They also said Nike has already shipped some custom orders and sets to get to retailers on 10/31.

Shipping from their warehouse in TN.
[/quote]


Wow shipping from TN is great news, I am in SC and thought it would take a few days as they would come from the west coast. Thanks for the update Lesmond
[/quote]

Yeah, the Nike warehouse is in TN. If you buy stuff from their online store, it gets shipped from there. The clubs are there as well, along with apparel, footwear, etc..

The Oven is in TX, the world HQ is in Oregon, but all the Golf products come from TN.

I am hoping that means I will get mine launch date too then, I would hope if yours show up in Cali from TN mine can do the same to SC.

Shakey, if you are taking request can you do a Vapor PC 5 iron compared to AP2 and TM MCs?

Thanks,

Don't have the MCs in stock, but I have a 7 in my demo cart. I can get 7 irons up in a few mins.

[sbjinx]

^ Thank you sir.

I'm still trying to figure out if I want to go 5 Speed or PC but looking at your Speed 5 iron pic above, I think I might go 5 PC. Would love to hear your feedback in a few days/weeks once you've had a chance to play around with your set.

Thanks again

[shakey]

Here ya go. [attachment=2476657:ImageUploadedByGolfWRX Mobile1414532057.190561.jpg]
AP2....VPC....TM MC

[StarFleetGolfer]

So is VPC similar forgiveness to AP2?

When I ordered mine it was not recommended to mix in the Speeds for the longer irons, said they were bigger than the CF irons and would not blend well. At least that is what I was told, I was going to get the 3/4 in the Speed.
[/quote]


Nike customer service told you this? From pics it wouldn't seem that way.....especially as long irons. ..[/quote]

Not Nike customer service, online retailer. They recommended not mixing the Speed with the PC. They said the Speed was a much larger head and would not blend well. Just relaying what I was told.
[/quote]

Appreciate the information. ...just contradicts everything else we've heard that's all......we'll all see them in person in 10 days or less to make a solid decision![/quote]

Yeah. That's probably the best idea. I ordered mine from DD's and Adam recommended not blending the Speed and PCs, he said the heads were much larger. I told him I had the CF irons and said I wasn't a fan of the long irons, he told me if that was the case then I would not like the Speed long irons. Just passing along the info I got.
[/quote]


And from the pics provided I can see why!

That speed 5 iron looks huge.

[shakey]

It does look big. But it screams forgiveness.

Might should have done Speed 4 and VPC 5-PW.

Can always order a VPC 5 iron later.

[GC70]

Oh, I'm so confused on what to get?

Shane any of your stock Speed sets have the 3 iron? if so can you take some picks with the VPC 3 and 4 iron?

[bd59]

Discount Dans...... The best!!!

[minteq]

I am glad I listened to Adam, I got the VPC 4-pw. I asked about the 3/4 in the Speed. I will use my 712U as my 3 iron.

No...both Speed sets are 4-GW. I'll try and get some 4 iron comparisons soon.

[Aragolf]

Got the sneak peek at gt tonight. Hit the pro and PC extensively. Both gorgeous irons. Pro is certainly a pure beautiful blade while the PC is a great looking iron with a ton more forgiveness.

I'll be going PC 4/5/6 and pro 7/8/9/pw.

How about the 3 VPC and the Vr forged PC?

[shakey]

Got caught up with some customers and didn't get the 4 iron pics. And we're sold out of the VR forged.

[Aragolf]

PC would compare to ap2, s55 in my opinion.

[PapaMike25]

I know there has been a bit of chat about the length of the irons being 0.25" longer with the VPCs and Pros. Could one of you fine gentlemen who have access to the VPCs and a stock Nike set of CF2.0, VRS Forged or 2014 PC compare them? I want to confirm if the extra length is actually there, or is it a change in measuring technique? I play my irons short and none of my local dealers are expecting demos at all.
Many Thanks ahead of time.

[Green Valley]

This has probably been asked and then answered but I'm took lazy to look through the thread. When do the vapor irons hit the stores??? Thank you

I think I'm going with Speed 3 iron and PC's in 4-PW. I found out yesterday I have a friend who knows the Nike rep in our region so he's sending my spec's to him and we'll see what he comes back. I'm trying to go PX 6.0 in the 3iron and KBS Tour 90 in the VPC's. This is exciting!!

I talked with Nike customer service today, same length as the CF 2.0, they are measuring differently. They said they used to measure to the line in the end of the grip, now they are going to the shoulder of the grip.
