I have heard from a pro that this driver contains a chip or device that records your swing path, speed etc and you can then plug it into your iPhone to see results. The chip must be removed for regular play however. Sounds strange but sounds innovative. Guess we'll see tomorrow.
I think I read somewhere that the driver you're talking about is still in the R&D phase.

I did a search and it also stated that it will be in shops only as a fitting device not something a consumer will be able to purchase.  Unfortunately:(

I wonder if there is something more than just the driver announcement?

All the Nike top brass is at the CMNH Tournament today so maybe a driver/player announcement.  Not sure of Watney and Stanley contracts though.  Are they up at end of year as well?  Or before Dec 1?

Yes. I agree with him. Strange, and good-looking. Like a chick with a wonky eye. I find it strangely attractive, but understand why others wouldn't

Like Melissa Joan Hart, for example.

Do you honestly think he didn't see/hit/test/ all of this stuff before signing? I'm not sure of your point or objective here.
