NIKE Vapor Pro
By S. Dee Davis
The NIKE Vapor Pro driver, used by Rory McIlroy, has a stiffer rear half of the club which, in theory, provides more flex or give in the front half of the driver to help your increase your ball speed off the face. The new ‘FlyBeam’ structure and Compression Channel combine to stabilize the chassis and maximize ball speed. This driver has a great sound at impact, very clean, solid and crisp – much better than previous Nike drivers of the past. The new technology is in the structure of the cavity in the sole, which is designed to be more forgiving on mishits, which this club does achieve. We found this driver to very long off the tee and forgiving. If you don’t prefer the Callaway or Taylor Made drivers, this club will deliver the extra yardage for you, but the key is to be fitted with the proper shaft.
