Would be awesome to see Tiger gaming the Covert. It would say A LOT about the new driver if Tiger put this in play, and sales would probably go through the roof if he had a red driver in play.

Don't forget about Rory too!

I was going to say Rory too but didn't want to jinx anything till it's official

I would say right now, it's between the Covert and the new Callaway driver for me.. of course my VR LTD with Fubuki K-Series will stay around no matter what. I will have to hit the TM driver, but the graphics are so bad that it will have to be mind blowing for me to get past the graphics.

I believe the RM is done (13 club deal) but everyone is playing hush hush I guess until January. For me it's between the Nike driver, Cally and I will always try TM even though I hate the look of the new offering. 2013 is going to be the year of the driver.

@TheMoneyShot - I think Taylor Made's 2012 #driverlove and huge marketing campaign really forced all other OEM's to seriously step up their game for 2013. Going to be very interesting to see how they all actually perform after sifting through all the marketing hype!

Watched the Dubai event over the weekend. Marc Warren was hitting the tour version. I was loving the sound it made!

I agree with you. If they don't TM will just continue to leave them in the dust. Nike will be huge if the can get TW and Rory into this new line. With the amount of exposure them two get it will be free marketing for the swoosh!

Not sure if he's ready to bag it this week, but he WILL be playing it next year. Set that in stone.

Sounds good, I'm looking forward to seeing if he has embraced this driver/ technology yet.

[csiachos]

I'm more excited to see if he's using the fairways, bc we all know this is a harder switch to mske

Very true!

[Ace32]

My guess he will only game the driver. The fairways probrably not look how long it took him to change the sq2 3 wood the 5 wood still in the bag. Greg any chance of taking a video so we can hear how this driver sounds

Sure, if it's a play at Tiger's I'll video him hitting to get the sound.

Thank you greatly bro!

[Snufles]

Depending on sound and performance I may just pick up my first Nike.

Lovin' that red club head.

I have never seen a 26 page thread on a Nike club since I've been a member here. Wow!!!

[jakeolsen11]

What is difference between the black face and the silver face?

Silver = regular version

Black = tour version

[swanry30]

this would be huge for NIKE if tiger does put this into play - even if it is just for the "funny season"!

on a side note a friend was able to hit the tour yesterday at a facility close to the NIKE headquarters in OR. he told me to make room in my bag... I CAN'T WAIT TO HIT THIS DRIVER!

PURE745/SWANRY30 = TURN THE OVEN ON

[Boogs2]

Nike...PLEASE have your fitting carts with more options than the stock shaft in regular, stiff, and x-stiff!

[Shagg]

I love the black tour, but the standard Version is very nice as well as seen on the video that Moneyshot provided.

Your avatar is the one other item wearing red in this thread besides the Covert that I enjoy looking at.

Everytime I see your avatar it makes me want this driver even more. That red/black is mean looking and the swoosh on the crown I kind of like. Kind of like the north face logo on the back shoulder. Different but good!

I'm in! The Covert is definitely #1 on my list and I have no idea why I am drawn to it.. I hate red!
