new nike ignite 2 irons... why is there no information on these other than golf galaxy... they arent even on the nike website as far as I can tell... whats up?

[mozgolf]

I cant find anything either, looks a pretty decent shape a bit like a players CB, longish hosel, limited offset and not to thick a sole.... sort of compact squarish looking shape

Just wondering if its a limited production run for big box shops. TM did a similar thing a few years ago with the r5 XL irons that were a Dicks only production run

I saw these at a Golftown here in Canada as well. I thought they looked quite nice. Small-ish head with thin top line and sole. I thought they were a set of older, clearance models.

$399 is not a bad price if they perform well.

there have also been on sale here in england for about a month

price has been cut already. had a look at them myself, not much offset and a smallish head, the shaft  tapered down very quick in about half inch steps, which didnt just look right to me. but not bad at that price.

oh I was impressed with them. I hit them and could fade or draw the ball... trajectory was nice... of course the distance was great... it was a simulator simulating how far youd hit the ball if you were on the moon with less gravity

these looks pretty good for Nike...never cared for their irons.

Anyone have a topline pic?

I work at a Golf Town in Canada and these are a re-branded SMU ( special make-up unit ) for big box retailers like Golf Galaxy and Golf Town in canada,

Just like many SMU products that came before they are based off of an older model and in this case its a re-branded cci cast but without the cut outs in the sole of the club and designed with a slightly thinner profile in general. to be honest for the money its probably pretty hard the find a better set for the money for a mid to lower handicapper.

I play to a 4 and currently use a set of MP-37's but if i was buying a new set and worried about price i would consider these for sure.

Now you know

Thanks for the info,No big deal if you can't but could you try and get some pics while at work?I can't find any at all!

Just saw these yesterday at Golf Galaxy and they were on sale for $289 I believe.

Head looked exactly like what I like; a little offset but a thinish top line and a thinner sole then most game improvment clubs.

I compared it to the VR full cavity and everything from the sole to the top line to the offset was just slightly smaller then the VR.

I'm still thinking of going to pick up a set, for $289 it can't be too bad of a mistake.

[eli_yates]

old or new grooves?

[ShortStack]

I'm sure they are not cconforming,saw them at Dicks and can say they are a NICE looking full cavity from the top...Thin topline,some offset but less then the Vr full cavs

i was looking at getting a set of these for my little brother in law. he's been playing for a year or two now and i feel is at the point where he needs a club thats not tooo much of a game inprovement, something like this that will let him get better and work the ball.

[j-daniel]

has anyone else had experience with these are they forged cast? i assume cast? worth putting good shafts in? as something that might be a bit bigger than vr split cavities but not as big as full cavs.

i have a feeling these arent very good  clubs even though they look th business but i just cnt get them out of my head.
