NIKE VAPOR FLY PRO IRONS REVIEW

[@jamesx2703]

Sorry I just needed to brag, I just bought a full set of these irons for £10. Original grips, a bit of wear but what a bargain! Quite happy 😂

[@TobyS27]

Wanna sell them to me 😂

[@jamesx2703]

@@TobyS27 lol already gone brother. Couldn't get on with them so sold them 😎

[@TobyS27]

@@jamesx2703 nightmare scenario 😂 fair enough :)

[@WLLoo]

I prefer the old way of testing with the ball flight on flight scope :)

[@cobra7282]

This has me wishing I didn't buy a set of Callaway XR pros a few months ago. I absolutely love the look of these.

[@vicibox]

+Saul Berenson Good god you cant even begin to compare these things with lovely Callaway clubs, these are full of plastic. Be happy that you have a fantastic set of steel clubs, cant you imagine what these will look like in a year covered in mud with the colour fading ;-)

[@cobra7282]

Vici Martynov I have had a set of black wedges for about 4 years and they still look in good enough shape. I'm not overly in love with the Callaways, but I hit them plenty well enough.

[@mrCaptainFTW]

+Vici Martynov god you're such an old grumpy fart, let the man enjoy what he likes, not every person is as boring as you are. Stop shitting on everyones opinions.

[@vicibox]

+Adam Thornton errr what I tell a man to enjoy the clubs he has bought rather than wish for something he hasn't got? I think you have serious problems with your priorities gawd

[@keylloyd9167]

+Vici Martynov actually Callaway XRs have a plastic in them as well... It's part of their 360 cupface. So.... swing and a miss. These clubs are gorgeous and they're the kind of thing golf needs to attract younger generations considering we lose 50,000 golfers per year since you old fuddyduddys keep kicking the bucket.

[@dawsonhutcherson8913]

I personally love the look of these. I know some people think they are hideous but come on, deep down you know they are hot.

[@TS_Esquire]

Rick, at the time of making this video, would you be more surprised that Nike would stop making clubs in 2016 or you would have over 2.2 million subscribers in 2022?

[@dmn144]

7:25 Holy Moley (yes I was there!) that is some serious clubhead speed Rick(184 mp/h), been working out?

[@neiltong2608]

Absolutely love your ball flight cam. Something so beautiful about a ball disappearing into the darkness after a great strike!! These look lovely but still love my AP2's too much to be forking out any money on new clubs just yet.

[@leonardlee3604]

Hi Rick maybe you can consider putting the camera down the line at night so that we can see the flight of the ball. Ball flights look great at night down the range, and I think it'll be great to see it during the club reviews :) cheers for all the content you've churned out :)

[@MrAshtute]

good point u can really see the ball flight well

[@keylloyd9167]

These things look awesome. Once again, I love the way you're testing them. It's true that the test might improve with a higher number of shots, but you run the risk of adding other bias in to the testing. What you could do is post the shot data from a mid handicapper and pete. Statistically speaking you're already testing better than any other vlogger though. Keep it up. One last thing, could you give a reference for what the feel of the club at impact was. Like maybe a comparison to a past club from any manufacturer.

[@michaelroberts100]

Rick have you considered looking at the condition of clubs after a season in the bag , cast compared forged the new black finished and how clubs stand up to a season of play.

[@kyshapka]

Like the review. I still love seeing the shots in progress on the GC2 or Trackman.

[@mikehermosillo8747]

I like the new way of testing with the 30 shots ... But I would like to see the simulator when you do hit shots on camera and to describe how the clubs feel you hit on camera rather than after ... But if you don't it's still a good way to review the clubs ... Gives plenty of information

[@blackie75]

wow 137k subs and 85.5k views, you're nipping at xfields heels here, well done Ricko

[@golfninja6492]

Great reviews on the fly RS .... :) The new 30, so 10,10,10, presumably came out of collaboration with the 'stats guy' you met in NYC, is a good idea gives a much better overall view of how the Clubs perform. Quite like the look of the Pro version & some okay #'s too - can't help thinking they would look nicer perhaps wear better over time if they had a metallic smoky grey finish rather than black, but like the 'blue' better than the 'lime green'.

[@evan9536]

I’m a little late here but I just landed a set of 4-AW. At this point they’re a collectors item, and a beautiful one at that!

[@billymetzner7766]

Love the club reviews. whats your favorite iron you have tested?

[@wodenoftheangles3339]

Very cool looking irons these. For best results however you should compare using your gaming shaft (KBS isn't it?). This and the last Nike iron review both had lightweight - high-launching shafts..

[@jamesgibson3838]

Ready to go back to nike with these bad boys but a wait on my hands being a lefty

[@XxJkatxX]

These irons are the best deal in golf and I love them as my first set. Not to mention they look amazing !

[@andrewjones9467]

Loving the new testing techniques, Rick. Any chance that you could do another review of the AP1 716 using this technique? I'm booked in for a fitting for them in January and would like to get as much background information as possible. Thanks Rick. 👍

[@rodn5616]

Rick do you recommend these for a high handicapper?

[@Try2Tri]

Seriously, the names of the range are ridiculous though. Love the new reviews. You can add a video of all shots with a club if you find time to edit this. This will keep the review short and the data accessible. :)

[@Holywowcow]

Hey, Rick! Do you have plans to do a Vapor Fly/Fly Pro vs. Psi irons video? I'd love to see a comparison.

[@metamurph]

So you think this is really an addition or does this replace the Vapor Pro Combo and there is a new Vapor Pro - I can't see them with mixed colorway going into the season. IE still three heads we just haven't seen the new blades?

[@zoots15]

Would look great with KBS black nickel shafts

[@SuperMikke28]

Hi Rick :) What about a head to head between Vapor pro combo`s and the fly pro`s? Witch of them would you recomend for a 13 hcp?

[@Zecyon]

Neither. These are pro irons and you need something a little more forgiving.

[@SuperMikke28]

I went for the fly pro's and they are fantastic :-) 4 iron is magic of the tee :-)

[@kevinwash74]

Michael Norstad Glad you did your own thing and didn't take someone else's advice.

[@benicioc7382]

I might buy those. I'm not too bad, 8 handicap. I just really like my clubs now, Ping Eye 2. I know they're considerably old, but I play good with them. What would you recommend?

[@JappyR2001]

Hit them

[@JakeRommer87]

Defo get them! I just got a set and they feel absolutely incredible off the face

[@Strezfavorites]

+Benicio C I am a 13 and also played Ping Eye 2. I went with my 7 iron and hit several to get a base and then tried out 5 different brands. Ping being the one I was leaning towards since I have played them for 20+ years. I ended up getting the Nike Vapor Fly Pro. They really had a great feel to them and the ball is going further for me. Season just started here but I am loving the new irons already.

[@clairesmith9261]

what happens to the clubs after all the reviews you do on them rick ? Surely they dont go on sale as new ?

Correction, the vapor pros form last year were in no way "really thin blades"...not even close

So are these considered blades? I want a small club face..

Where do you usually show the videos because it seems to always be cold and wet

Hi Rick, I had a quick question, I recently went on GC2 and found out my driver swing speed was 105-108, and i have average of 250 yrds total distance. is this normal? also my ball flight balloons a bit. thanks! keep up the videos

[@taylorgrimes35]

Late but yes that sounds good as long as it’s accurate and consistent you’re good.

[@camai75]

forged or cast?

[@costby]

Rick, according to nike's website that 7 iron is 32 degrees and 37.75 inches in length. Given your previous review and mis-representation of the PSI Tours at 34 degrees and 36.75 inches seams to me that nike's got the better end of the review from you.

[@SpeedieGT5]

why would you take these over the vapor fly? since these Are harder to hit and barely give an improvent in distance and spin. Maybe the looks, but I dont see the advantage

[@hindeshotelra]

Better spin rpm figures, more feel and more workability.

[@qTheLeeUniTp]

Can see the Vapor Fly drivers in the back, when are they making an appearance :D?

[@matthewmadalone9534]

black finish comes off quickly as soon as you catch pebbles of sand in the turf!

[@mrCaptainFTW]

Dear Nike, I loved you guys. I loved these irons, I couldn't wait for them to come out. Now I understand that us lefties don't make up a huge portion of the market but for you to not come out with these irons at all in left hand just doesn't make sense to me. I've played your slingshot Irons, your Sasquatch and covert drivers. I love my nike putter, now for you to eliminate us lefties I think you've lost me for irons. I understand not making an odd club like a 2 iron, but a hole line of clubs?? Not cool Nike.

[@Liam___ohara___]

It kinda has a more Ping look to them.

[@tonybarajas2351]

Hi Rick love your show! Love all the reviews you do with the most up to date clubs on the market. I'm Getting new irons in 2016 with all the newest irons coming out. I've demoed the Nike Pro Combos before and liked them. But I'm a Solid 12 handicap and felt like that those were just a little to much club for me. But in the same breath in ready to take the next step to Forged irons because I'm still playing with my old set which are Cavity backs and I'm just ready for the next step up in clubs. But I am just like all golfers trying to get that score down! So would these Nike Vapor Fly pros be suited for a guy like me trying to get into that 6-10 handicap range.

[@16pennynails]

I come from the future of 2022, haha Ha!! These things are worth a lot of money now, partly due to several pros who still carry the three iron. Mean, stealthy looking clubs that have developed a cult following...Nike golf clubs in general...they should have thinned their line, gone a bit easy on the graphics and stuck around in golf club building. I wonder what their next products would have been like, at least in appearance.

Do you ever hit a club you don't like. That's a rhetorical comment. I guess it's safe to assume that all clubs perform about the same.

[@benross422]

it's a testament to how good premium brands have gotten. At this point, looks have become a huge consideration when buying. also when you're an excellent ball striker like rick, you tend to get comparable performance because the ball is the same.

[@Ccaiman]

Black and white looks great tho. lol

[@GolfGeek]

I'm not sure about the look of these 😕

[@MrAshtute]

I have been extremely critical of this new range of Nike clubs ( Wait till you see the drivers they are so bad they will make your eyes bleed) However- this in my opinion - is the nicest looking club in their new range! No it still wouldn't go in my bag as I can't consider buying a club I don't like the look of but it's not as horrific as the others I would go as far as to say down by the ball ( when you can't see the back of the club) they look ok. If I were the person who runs Nike Golf I would sack the person who designed this range...not for this club but for the rest of the range. I can imagine many a teenager might like these in their bag and maybe a few others but since Nike released the covert range they have sadly produced some awful looking clubs. I think Nike should try to make nice classic looking clubs that people may want to play instead of making clubs with silly colours with made up names!

[@JappyR2001]

They do have a traditional range its just quite old vr pro combos 😍

[@MrAshtute]

JappyR2001 yes I know...but I won't be buying any Nike Golf gear next season that's for certain

[@JappyR2001]

+Adam Flynn neither unless my dad wins the lottery i can only afford what ive got

[@MrAshtute]

+JappyR2001 yes golfers be expensive - especially to buy the latest equipment. Good luck 🍀 in the lottery!!!

[@Cursedfenix]

+Adam Flynn Personally I like the whole range from a design stand point. Granted I am most likely much closer to the teenage aspect than you, at 26 years old. I do know a lot of 30-40 year olds that like Nike's stuff as well. The fact is, if you want more young golfers to get interested, the equipment has to appeal to them aesthetically and the price can't be too far out of reach. Then they have to perform too of course.

[@matthewrichardson4122]

Nike is Lost ! Horrible looking clubs , But a very politically correct review .

[@Pritchy4]

I disagree, Nike is on the up, and very nice looking clubs.

[@InTheWerkz]

+Matthew Pritchard Well I respect your opinion, but Rory or Tiger are not bagging these irons , and Rick is having a hard time giving this a good review.. The Tech is always going to be good , but these clubs look like toys , and I don't think these will sell very well , They are definitely aimed at a younger demographic.

[@GolfGeek]

I think they're trying to be hip and happening for the younger generation

[@InTheWerkz]

+Golf Geek Ya I agree , but they just started getting on the right track , somewhat with the VRS and last years vapor line , I have the Vapor speed driver , it's an awesome club , their pro combo irons are great , Theirs got a be another blade set coming out right ?

[@GolfGeek]

Caltac03 Sometimes it comes down to what sells the most rather than focus on real quality big companies do this. I like the Pro combos I'm using them at the moment but at some point would like to progress onto a blade set just a question of who with? I believe Nike will focus on whats sells the most. But I'm still massive Nike fan either way.

[@edreumann8385]

This must be a test for those scouring Craigslist or Ebay for a used set of Nike clubs. What a waste of oxygen.
