Just as important, the Nike VR S is extremely forgiving which allows me to swing more aggressively as the misses are far less severe.Īs for the looks and sound of the club, I am also a fan. Additionally, the aerodynamic head and lighter shaft are also part of the equation but I will leave that to the rocket scientists. Why then am I a picking up so many yards? From a technology standpoint, the Nike VR S driver is built with the NEXCOR face which is supposed to increase ball speed – okay, sounds reasonable. Now, maybe it is not fair to compare a Ping G-10 to the Nike VR-S since the Ping is about 3-4 years old but as I stated, I have also hit other newer clubs but never realized much distance improvement. Yup, the Nike VR S driver is 15-20 yards longer for me than my Ping G-10 and every other driver I have hit the past 3 or so years (and all of the ones before that too). In some cases I was flying traps that I have never flown. The next day I played my regular course and was farther on nearly every single hole I played. Even I did not need a launch monitor to know I hit the ball farther, the proof was in the net. I took the Nike driver to my home club’s driving range where the tee boxes have been set on the lower level such that some people can reach or fly net (but not me). Ironically, I never, not once, ever, hit a Nike driver because I “knew” I would not like it. It’s not about the money either, no, the reason I never bought another driver is because I never saw any significant distance or accuracy improvements over my Ping G-10.

In the past 3 years I have primarily carried a Ping G10 but I have hit a ton of other drivers in a simulator (see my post on the Free Driving Range). Now that we have that out in the open, I will go ahead and spoil the ending and let you know I love the Nike VR-S Driver. Nike VR-S Driver: So let’s start with the usual disclaimers.ġ) I have been and remain a huge Tiger FanĢ) The only Nike gear I own are two pair of shorts and a few shirtsģ) I have never believed that Nike was the real deal in terms of golf clubs
