TheGolfSpecialist Posted September 22, 2008 Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 Upcoming Nike Irons Nike Prototype (cavity back) The new cavity back irons by Nike has a very compact head and are designed to look very close to traditional muscle back irons at address. Their prototype version has already found its way into the bag of tour professional Keiichiro Fukabori. We can look forward to seeing a lot more of these clubs in the bags of other Nike staff professionals. Nike Prototype (pro combo OS) The new Nike Pro Combo OS, will feature a slightly larger head than the previous Pro Combo sets introduced. These irons will have a much lower center of gravity and the lofts will be tweaked 2degrees stronger for added distance. The heads were designed to work best with graphite shafts. The big selling point is their new oversized, but yet very clean looking wedges that come with this set. The prototype of this set is currently being played by Shingo Katayama.

gocchin Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 Fukabori is always quick to jump on the new prototypes. (^_^) Shingo's bag is always very interesting. I've heard him say so many times that he can never have enough forgiveness. He was playing a 10.5 Sumo2, 3, 5, 7 woods, utility and his irons are 5-6i SQ Sumo irons and then the prototype OS from 7-PW for most of the summer.
