Nike CCI Golf Irons


The Nike CCI irons are some of the best selling Nike golf irons. These CCi have an unbelievable clean look. These clubs have a beautiful steel head with a very polished finish. The Nike swoosh looks great on the charcoal background on the back of the club head. But, how do the Nike CCI golf irons stand up technologically to the other Nike irons.


The Nike CCI gets its name from the Composite Cavity Insert (CCI). This composite cavity insert is comprised of a polymer designed to increase the feel of the club and a high-density tungsten weight plug. This tungsten weight plug gives the iron a great solid feel. The tungsten plug lowers the center of gravity of the club head which help to add forgiveness to these golf irons.

This CCI insert is designed to minimize the vibration that the club gives when you hit a golf ball. Nike has done a great job in designing a cast iron club that does not hurt your hands when you mishit a shot. The Nike CCI uses 431 stainless steel which is softer than the 17-4 stainless steel used in most golf clubs. This softer steel and the CCI insert decreases vibration and makes these Nike CCI golf irons a pleasure to hit.

These Nike CCI golf irons come in many shaft options. There are two primary choices for shafts though. You can go with the True Temper Dynalite Gold Steel Shafts or the CCi Constant Weight Graphite Shaft manufactured by Mitsubishi Rayon. Like any other graphite shafts, the Mitsubishi graphite shafts will give you more distance than the steel shafts. However, for inconsistent golfers the increased clubhead speed provided by the grphite shaft can expose your weaksnesses in your golf swing.

All in all I really love the look of the Nike CCI golf irons. These Nike golf irons look great from the side and when you are standing over them when addressing the golf golf I love the thin look of the blades. You should definitely try out these Nike CCI golf irons.
