Nike Slingshot Golf Irons


The Nike Slingshot Golf Irons have been a hit with golfers ever since the Nike Slingshot OSS was first introduced in 2006. Most golfers now realize that decent iron play is many times more important to winning golf games. This is what Nike Golf had in mind when they designed these Nike golf irons. I hope that you like this review of these Nike slingshot golf irons.

Over the last few years, the technology to make iron clubs has significantly improved and now we have the Nike Iron Slingshot OSS. The major advance with the Nike Slingshot has been the wider sole. This improvement in technology has allowed golfers with poor and inefficient swings to be able to hit the ball without excessive digging into the ground.

The width of the sole in the Slingshot has helped to prevent the mishits by providing a wider contact surface with the ball. When one gets better at ball striking, the Slingshot OSS with its wider sole also allows one to be creative with the shots. The Slingshot technology has allowed for more of the club weight to be displaced into the sole, thus lowering the center of gravity. Moving this weight has allowed golfers to easily lift the ball in the air during the initial strike.

Even though the distance achieved with the Nike Iron Slingshot is much further than other irons, some professional golfers do claim that this increased distance comes at the expense of accuracy and moderate degree of spinning. However, the majority of golfers who have used this product are very happy with it.

The Nike Iron Slingshot OSS is available in various lofts, lies and lengths. For the amateur golfer who wants to improve his/her game, it is recommended that one get a custom fit iron. This may be slightly more expensive but the improvements in the game will more than compensate for the initial financial loss. The shaft of the Nike Slingshot can be outfitted with any light graphite.

In summary, my Nike Slingshot review is that it is a solid iron and is great for most golfers who want to improve their hitting and striking. Further, the irons are very forging even one when is not technically sound. If you are looking to buy Nike Slingshot golf irons, you can find great deals online.

Slingshot Hybrid Nike Golf Irons


The new Slingshot hybrid Nike golf irons are some of the best utility clubs. Nike Golf has exploded onto the scene and with it's Sumo Nike golf irons and its Slingshot Nike golf irons, it is proving to be a fierce competitor to Ping Golf, Callaway, Titleist, Taylormade, etc.

The Nike Slingshot Hybrid is designed to be an alternative to you 5 wood, 2 iron or 3 iron. If you are like most golfers who have trouble hitting these long irons, the Nike Slingshot fairway wood might be the perfect hybrid golf club for you.

The slingshot hybrid club has a low center of gravity. This low center of gravity is created by the low slung slingback design and the light weight carbon crown. As stated on the Nike Golf website, this design puts 70% of the clubs weight below the center of the golf ball. Because this club has such a low center of gravity, you will have a much easier time getting the golf ball into the air with this hybrid club.

The face of the Slingshot hybrid fairway wood is made with Carpenter Custom 455 stainless steel. This material is very light, but gives the hybrid golf club a very solid feel when you hit the bolf ball.

Another great feature of this Nike Slingshot Hybrid is that it is designed to eliminate a slice. I have a terrible slice so I am always looking for great hybrid clubs. However, if you have a natural draw, these hybrids might not be the club for you. I hope that you like this review of the Slingshot Hybrid Nike Golf irons and fairway woods.
