You are high if you think the Nike VR Pro blades are ugly. People's dislike for Nike Golf amazes me. If you took the Nike swoosh off and replaced it with the Mizzy Bird thing it would look oh so much better?

Agreed. But the beauty of it is if you don't like Nike don't buy it. Simple as that

If you rally feel that way, ok. 

 

But is it really that or do you have an issue with Nike as a company? Maybe one of its golfers?

Everyone is open to like and not like whatever suits them. 

 

I personally play the VRS Covert irons. For me, they are a nice iron and fit my game. I like the looks of them over several other GI irons. To each his own. We may not agree on club looks but we can still catch a round together here in town....

This obviously has something to do with not liking Nike for another reason and not their club making. Most of the VR series was very classic and understated.

Actually, I take posts like this as a good thing for Nike.  Culturally, the best way to know when a product is making real strides into the mainstream of a market place is when you see the emergence of the 'Haters'.  The oft-times irrational 'I'll never buy xyz because' arguments ensue. The greater the success, the louder and more bellicose the haters become.  

Take for example the Apple "Fanboy" syndrome. You look online for computer information. You have the people that will advocate Windows, because 'everyone uses it' and it is 'good enough'. Then someone mentions the Mac, and the discussion explodes into a mix of rational and irrational hatred and bias. Apply the same thing to phones, iOS, ANDROID!, err Windows Phone. Golf? Titleist, TaylorMade, Ping, Callaway, Nike.  

It almost needs it's own metric: Haters per Marketing $$$ spent.  I'd argue that Nike is getting their money's worth right now, and like it or not, Vapor is a prime example, where they created buzz and animosity with nothing but a splash of color, and it certainly isn't as in your face as the Amp's were.  

But as always, to each their own. I will say this though: 

Adidas once OWNED the soccer market. Nike piddled with it, but wasn't all that serious about it. When they got serious though, Adidas took a massive hit, and Nike's identity in Soccer today is that of a heavyweight, not an also ran. They can do that in Golf, and I think they will. They really got the ball rolling with the Covert, but the Vapor is putting it into gear, and by aligning the coloring and branding to the entire company identity, they are going to reap massive rewards across an entire product range from athletic clothing, gear and golf.  

Keep in mind, that IMO, Nike & UnderArmour are both poised to be massive powers across many industries over then next 15 years, and it would be foolish to dismiss them at such an early juncture.

Man there is no reason to delete what you said. That's how you feel. Not entirely sure why you feel that way but that's your opinion. Just because others think differently doesn't mean you should change what you say unless you actually believe differently.

I do think they should move on from the cavity-back woods.

 

That design, compared to what is doable with a traditional head - hasn't increased MOI, hasn't lowered spin, hasn't increased ball speed, etc.

 

I'm not saying it's bad. But aside from looks and marketing, what's the point?

Wow, all this from that tag line - looks like someone out there has put himself into the running for next month's MoM award!  :)

 

Hey if it means anything I hate the way my Wilson Irons look and loved the way my Mizzi's looked.  Guess which one I hit better - So, I just try not to look at them too often - I have make sure that the SCORs are facing out when I take them out of the trunk and put them on the bag drop.

 

I've never played a Nike club simply because I have always found something that fit prior to trying Nike.  I've hit their stuff though when friends have bagged it, nothing wrong with it, I just have a pecking order that I follow when I go to purchase new equipment.  I start with brands that have worked for me best in the past and work through those.  I did jump outside that group for my current fairway woods and hybrid so I've expanded the possible search the next time around.

Taylor Made Stealth 2 10.5 Diamana S plus 60  Aldila  R flex   - 42.25 inches 

SMT 4 wood bassara R flex, four wood head, 3 wood shaft

Ping G410 7, 9 wood  Alta 65 R flex

Srixon ZX5 MK II  5-GW - UST recoil Dart 65 R flex

India 52,56 (60 pending)  UST recoil 75's R flex  

Evon roll ER 5 32 inches

It's our offseason so auditioning candidates - looking for that right mix of low spin long, more spin around the greens - TBD

I have never been brand loyal except in the classics but that is another story. I actually need to change my profile but I still have 6 different brands of clubs in my bag. I am fixing to find out what the new Vapor irons hit like next week because golf director at my club is a Nike Staffer and he is getting his new vapors next week. I will probably hit them some but I know already they will have too much shaft for me he hits X-100s. This is the same guy that gave me the 003 putter.

Theoo will be proud of me. The director wears the same size shoes as I do and he gave me a pair of Nike shoes last night and they feel good. Said he was tired of seeing me play in those "damn Chucky Taylors" I am going to try it will just have to tape my ankles over the ankle braces. I wore them some this afternoon with my ankles taped up when I hit balls and they do feel good.

In retrospect I don't knock anyone's brand I just play what works for me.

Bottom line is he, as with the rest of us, like what we like. And we dont like what we dont like. But if you look at his new avatar photo, I can get how any other set might look a little off compared to what he is gaming. 

 

I may not agree, but I'll still drink with him and try to let my clubs beat his.

Sorry I was late getting back to the party have had some modem problems with my computer.

Got to hit my GMs new Vapor irons the other day. They hit great even though his X-100 shafts are a little too much for me in the 6&7 irons but I hit the PW thru 8 irons pretty sporty for an old man. Actually they had a great feel to them. I think Nike hit it dead on with these irons

The majority of my friends are in their early 30's and just now getting serious about playing golf (more than ten rounds a year). When they walk into a shop they don't know what FootJoy's are, we grew up with Nike and Jordan and Bo. Adidas to them is soccer. All of my friends will gravitate toward Nike or Puma. They know Titleist, Callaway, TaylorMade, etc. but when it comes to footwear they love Nike!

 

I'm glad Nike finally ditched Red and are starting to move away from Tiger. Tiger is a 50/50 guy in that 50% hate him and 50% love him. That doesn't work when your golf clubs have him all over them.

 

Volt was a genius marketing ploy! White worked for TaylorMade!

I gamed the VZrPro CB's for a year. The only prob was they had a sharp leading edge. My swing prefers a "V sole" type iron. Like Mizzies and SCORs.

I will say Nike makes the most confortable golf shoe I have ever worn and back in the day I had nice Foot Joys and Etonic golf shoes. My GM is a Nike staffer and wears the same size shoes as I do so he gave me a pair the other day and man are they nice
