Favorite Nike club of all time? – GolfWRXers discuss
In our forums, our members are discussing all things Nike equipment. WRXer ‘greenfieldgolfer’ asks fellow members what their favorite Nike club is and reveals his pick of the brand’s SQ 5000 driver, saying:
“As of right now, I still game a Nike SQ 5000 driver. It doesn’t get much love or recognition, but the combination of forgiveness, distance, and sound makes it really hard to replace in my bag.”
And our members have been sharing their favorites in our forum.

Spotted: Chris Kirk’s Callaway Opus wedges
Gear junkies have been waiting patiently for Callaway to release new wedges. We may have gotten a sneak peek at what’s coming after seeing something new in Chris Kirk’s bag at the 2024 Charles Schwab Challenge. Spotted were a few different wedges, but the Callaway Opus caught our eye.
The term opus can mean, “any artistic work, especially one on a large scale. With iconic wedge designer Roger Cleveland now working with Terra Forza golf, could this have been his last creation for Callaway?
We don’t have any official word from Callaway on these wedges, but the main focal point seems to be the extra mass in the center of the club. This added material could be used to adjust the center of gravity on the wedge in order for it to launch and spin a specific way. It can also be used to enhance the feel and sound of the club with more material behind the impact location.
The shaping of the head looks to be a little more on the rounded side compared to the current Jaws Raw wedges. The topline on the wedge looks to be fairly thin and the leading edge is pretty straight with just a little bit of a radius to it. The color looks to be an antique brown and it will be interesting to see if that is a plating on the club or some kind of oilcan finish that will wear away and rust.

Nike is lame. They make lame shoes, lame clothes, and made lame golf clubs. I don’t understand the obsession that the publisher of this website has with Nike. There seems to be at least an article a week focused on Nike. How about one for Goldwin, or Maxfli?
