Nike reveal Vapor Fly and Fly Pro Irons

Nike are beating the RZN drum loud as they’re utilizing the material in a huge chunk of their 2016 range. But hey if it delivers the sort of game improving opportunities they claim why wouldn’t you? Its lightweight and strength properties aren’t limited to drivers and balls either, hence why it features heavily in both new Fly irons.

Fly and Fly Pro are a cast construction so will feel a bit different to Nike’s Vapor Pro and Pro Combo which are forged. A stronger chassis helps get the SUP 10 spring steel faces to act like a trampoline and power shots off the club face. Nike say the hollow body construction on the long to mid irons also increases playability just like the larger head of a wood. By utilising their RZN material and thinner clubfaces Nike also reckon they’ve freed up 14g of excess mass. This weight has enabled engineers to lower and deepen the CG locations and create a better balanced and efficient set by matching all CG’s to within 1mm of the centre of every club face.

So what are the differences between the Fly and Fly Pro? Well the Pro are clad in a super sexy black finish and feature less offset and a narrower sole than the Fly. Which means they are aimed at delivering power and workability. Where the Fly’s are designed around combining power and forgiveness so are aimed more at the game improvement market.

Expect to see these appearing in golf shops from Feb. Prices will start from £499(s) and £599(g) for the Fly and £699(s) for the Fly Pro.
