Nike Slingshot OS Irons
Goal Of Iron Set: Easy striking ability throughout the iron range.
From Nike: The Nike Slingshot OSS takes last year's Nike Slingshot and pushes the "Slingback" further back and widens the already wider sole. This "dual-glide sole," was created to reduce excessive digging, enabling golfers with less-than-powerful swings to get through the turf more effectively.
We Say: The Nike Slingshot OSS clubs are receiving
rave reviews so far. Players are claiming these clubs are lowering their scores
by up to five shots in as little as 2 weeks.
These rock solid clubs are best when used with gloves. These clubs are incredibly
easy to hit with, even for someone who has a trouble with hitting straight shots.
This second generation of Nike Slingshot OSS clubs are very forgiving, even
to the most amateur and inexperienced players.
Nike's top golf engineers have shifted the center of gravity lower and deeper
to take forgiveness to a whole new level. The new Slingshot OSS (OverSize Slingback)
is an extension of the highly-acclaimed Slingshot, which was awarded the 2004
Iron of the Year Award. The OSS sports a unique cryo steel clubface that creates
hotter ball speed than that of a conventional steel face. A robotically controlled
laser weld maximizes the cryo steel faceplate size to create a large, more responsive
sweet spot. As for the shaft, it is the Speed Step Light/Constant Weight Steel
shaft made by True Temper. The Speed Step shaft also incorporates a soft tip
profile to allow the ball to fly much higher. This shaft is 30% lighter than
your traditional steel shaft.
In Conclusion: All in all, the Nike Slingshot OSS is an iron set ready to add real improvement to the games of mid to high handicappers.
