Video Review: Nike VR_S Hybrid
Published: Last updated:
The Nike VR_S is the fastest, longest hybrid Nike have ever produced and it outperforms all others by combining two big advantages – it launches easier and flies farther.
The VR_S hybrid uses powerful ‘NexCOR’ face technology, a super-slippery aerodynamic head and a state-of-the-art Fubuki graphite shaft in the relentless pursuit of speed and distance.
Nike’s amazing ‘NexCOR’ technology features in the face of the VR_S hybrid club and uses a multi-thickness design, where the face is thickest in the middle and gets thinner towards the perimeter. This extra speed at impact results in more distance.
The shallow faced club head has been aerodynamically sculpted to glide through the air with the least possible resistance, delivering the performance of a fairway wood with the accuracy and scoring ability of an iron.
The majority of golfers strike the ball low on the face. Nike have therefore moved the weld that joins the face and body of the club and positioned in on the sole to create ‘L-Face Technology’, giving you extra speed and distance even on your mis-hit shots.
Here’s what our equipment editors had to say about the club that claimed the Bronze Award in our September hybrid test:
