Description The perfect set of irons
Nike’s heritage of innovation breaks golf’s long-standing, traditional approach to irons
Created using Nike Golf’s two-step precision forging process
Full-Cavity Long Ir...
Summary: I wanted to up my game and bought the Nike pro combo tours on Ebay for $149. 3-7 iron was good, but had a hard time with 8-PW. After a few rounds and a few days on the range all the clubs are good to go. Suprisingly accurate when hit on the sweet spot, but you feel the miss hits hard. I'd recommend these to someone trying to increase thier play and want to learn how to work the ball. It's fun thinking what you want to do with the golf ball and then doing it with these irons. Great clubs!

Summary: I love these irons! They feel incredible when you find the sweet spot. The minimal offset helps me line up the shots better. Love the short iron blades. The mid irons are the perfect blend between forgiveness and workability and feel. the long irons fell as good as the blade short irons but offer more forgiveness being a full cavity. All of the irons have a good penetrating ball flight.
All and all, love them and would recommend these to anyone. :)

Summary: I bought these a couple of weeks ago, and so far I like them quite a bit. Like many mid-handicappers, I'm a fairly decent ballstriker with my mid- and short irons, but do tend to mis-hit my longer irons (mostly I hit pull hooks when I swing them poorly). I hit my buddy’s Nike blades and really liked the feel of them, but didn’t trust myself with long-iron blades. So I thought a progressive club design was a good compromise (would've like to try the Titleist ZB, but they were out of my price range).
So far I do really like these clubs. I'm still getting the distance of them down. Some people on here have complained that these irons are shorter than their old irons. I personally haven’t found that at all, because they are significantly longer than my previous irons. Probably a good 15 yards longer, in fact. But I was hitting some really lame "game-improvement" irons from Cleveland, and while they were easy to hit straight, they were impossible to work and really short. I noticed that some of the people that complained that these irons are short were coming from straight blades to these. Maybe that’s different, but all that perimeter weighting for forgiveness in my old irons seemed to make it so that no shot was too bad, but no shot was very good, either. Like I said, these are significantly longer and they're also more workable, but they are obviously less forgiving, which means that distance varies more based on how you hit the ball (mis-hit versus pure obviously, but also a normal swing versus really muscling up). It’s something that takes a bit of getting used to, but I like it. It brings more feel into the game. And it’s hard to beat suddenly hitting a 7 iron 175 yards and being able to play a fairly easy-to-hit club from as much as 200 yards out. That makes a lot of holes an awful lot easier.
The only thing I’ve really noticed so far that’s somewhat odd is that I’m taking bigger divots with these clubs than I ever have before. But I don’t think it’s the clubs; I think I’m just attacking the ball a bit more so I’m driving down through it more than I did in the past. But it hasn’t really cost me many times so far.
Like any clubs, they're only right for you if they're right for your game. And overall, I think these clubs are a great compromise between blades and cavity backs for most decent golfers. It’s really surprising that more brands don’t make sets like this.
I'm giving them 5 stars for overall, but only 3 stars for value, because new I think these clubs are a bit overpriced. I got a great deal on a used set on ebay, though. That's the way you should go.
Summary: The search is over. Theese irons are amazing... i was about a 8 handicap when i got theese. Im about a 4 now. They have such a good feel and you can really control the ball. The lower irons have some real accuracy to em. The price didnt kill me either. I will never go to any other irons.
