This has a slightly chunky look that promises a forgiving strike but it has lost none of the sleek modern design that makes Nike such a favorite brand. The rear 'Slingback' bar is designed to align each iron's centre of gravity optimally to provide high flighted long irons and controllable short irons. This is a carefully designed combo to give you exactly what you need when you need it.
