If you are on the border go up a loft with the VR Tour, but stay the same with the VR Str8. I think golfers should stay with their normal loft in either driver. But I was impressed how straight this shaft hit the ball drive after drive. The VooDoo VR6 is a mid kick shaft that felt a little looser and clearly had more spin. The Project X is definitely a spin and launch killer. It played with really low spin and I felt like I had great control of the club. I found the Project X shaft to be really stable smooth with a high kick point. When it comes to spec comparisons here are the differences After a smooth confident swing the ball just exploded off the face right down the middle landing about 275 and rolling to a stop at 285. I’m not sure I’ve ever hit a more intimidating tee shot. The course had a pond that I had to fly on the right side and some trees on the left. There I am all by myself, teeing off as they had to wait for me. I was making the turn and the starter pushed me off in front of about 35 high school golfers and their coaches. The ultimate test came on the 10th of a local muni. I was able to step up to the tee and know that I had the face just a little closed I couldn’t hit the banana ball. What I really liked about this head was the confidence it inspired. I was short of the VR Tour by about 20 yards on good drives, was equal to poorer drives, but almost always finding the fairway. I started hitting this thing down the center all day long.
#NIKE VR DRIVER DRIVER#
This driver has a little louder sound than the VR Tour, but still better than past lines. It’s not much and it looks basically square to my eye, I was ready to rock and roll. I decided that since my miss is typically a fade, and even though I hit the VR tour with the 1* open face really well, I would set the VR Tour Str8 to 1/4* closed. The adjustment card is helpful picking the exact specs you want out of the 32 options. It was very easy to use the new wrench with lights up and beeps when it is tightened properly. With so many options where does one start. Immediately you can tell the difference with the less pear-like shape and more rounded 440cc head and the STR8 hosel with 32 different settings. This club is going to be what most golfers need. If my swing gets fickle and takes a break, I would have no problems dropping the VR Tour Str8 driver in my bag.
I have no way of testing it or feeling it, but my on course results have been outstanding. The PowerChannel is the big new technology in Nike’s VR line. Still a tiny tinny, but so much better than the previous Nike lines. The VR Tour also brought the sound down to more normal muted ranges.
I’ve been hitting 5 to 10 yard baby fades with confidence and consistency. I’m getting great carry and tons of roll. But with the VR tour in play I’ve hit 300 at least twice every round I’ve played and even hit a few past Mr. He will typically push 300 while I’m more in the 275 range, only once and a great while will I stretch close to 300. He regularly out drives me on normal drives by about 25 yards. But since the VR Tour has been in my bag it is longer and just as straight. Long and straight has been pretty common up to this point in the season. I’ll admit for the most part I’ve been driving the ball well this spring. Finally the low spin head paired with the Project X low spin shaft will cause many golfers to lose distance because of the lack of spin needed to keep the ball up in the air.īut if all those aspects appeal to you, as they do me, this thing is a cannon. It is compact with a deep face, but not the wide face that many golfers need. The second aspect is going to be the 420cc head. This will promote a left to right ball pattern (slice) from most golfers, especially since so many struggle with an over the top move and hit banana balls already. The very first aspect will be the open face.
#NIKE VR DRIVER FULL#
Here is why I think many golfers aren’t going to reach their full driving potential with this club. With that said, I’m going to guess that less than 5% of the golfing population would be best served by hitting this head. While we finally have the tour club we’ve wanted for years. Going back even to the Ignite line of drivers, we all knew about the tour heads, but had very little access to getting those heads. Nike followers have been asking for tour clubs for years. Obviously the pros get fit and the shafts get tweaked for their exact specs, but no different head. I talked with the designers at Nike, the guys who work at the Oven and those who work personally fit the PGA players and there is virtually no difference between the VR Tour off the shelf at any golf store and the VR Tour that the pros play. It is the exact same club that the pros are playing.
