Nike Blades

Summary:
Just got these for a $100, no kidding, from a fella that had to sell (wife mandated). Ouch. His loss.
Anyway, they are a ball strikers dream. If I had half the short game as my ball striking w/these irons, Id be a LOW single digit handicapper.
If you swing even decently, 80s/90s player, you can hit these blades. They arent as hard as everyone says and the mis-hits arent that bad. Simply staying in your stance and balance, full shoulder turn on the backswing, swing smoothly within yourself, these irons will do the trick!
Also, I have LOST NO DISTANCE whatsoever, so disregard that bit of information. As a matter of fact, when I took them to the range, I fully expected to lose a full club of carry distance from all the reviews saying as such. Pure Baloney. As an example, my 8 iron average carry is 160 yards, with some of the high carries around 172. But yes AVE CARRY, not hit and roll, was around 160 yards. Granted, if you try to swing with your arms/shoulders instead of using hip turn/legs, then yes you might lose distance. But I would recommend getting a lesson to take advantage of these clubs.
Granted, Im still in the camp of "its the indian, not the arrow". However, these clubs really help you IF you have an already decent or better swing. Dont fear these clubs being a "player's club" or being blades, if you get the chance, I highly recommend at least trying them out.

Nike Blade Irons

Summary:
I got the Iron set as a gift and when I recieved them I was consistantly shooting in the 90's or higher. A short 2 months later the irons had me shooting a high 70 to low 80. They provide amazing feedback to any swing flaw so you can fix it in a very short time on the range. I have now had them 14 months and could not be happier. The irons alone saved my game. I was a beginner with them and I am better for it! Plus, when you beat everyone that makes fun of blades there is no better feeling! I have 7 trophy's now and havent lost a tournament yet. I started golf 17 months ago. That has to say something about these clubs. Thanks Nike!!

Model Reviewed:
Nike Blades

Summary:
My friend just purchased a set of Nike blades and I tried the 4 iron just to see if I could make the step up to blades. I took one practice swing then set up and struck the ball perfectly straight and solid. The standard set felt like it was fitted for me. I am 5'5" tall. I am in the process of seeking to get a set fitted. I have no doubt these will elevate my game. I am currently playing with the Wilson Fat Shafts, which I had for about 9 years.
