Which ones are better? simple as that, which club gives you more distance and are more forgiving?

Depends on your swing.  Simple as that.

The cavities are going to be more forgiving. Lofts are the same, so distance won't be a big differentiator. You'll probably hit the blades lower than the cavities.

You also list a 10 handicap. So  while many will take your word for it that your swing is "pretty good" that's not really enough for everyone.

Not sure which of your irons have the project X shafts, but your equipment sounds like a friend of mine who hits a consistent low push fade. Too bad he sets up for a draw. He's a 24 index.

Check out the Nikes on the home page - I'm not a swoosh guy (not in any way shape or form), but I want those..

Then why did you ask which of the two Nikes is better?

In my bag:

Driver: Titleist TSi3 | 15º 3-Wood: Ping G410 | 17º 2-Hybrid: Ping G410 | 19º 3-Iron: TaylorMade GAPR Lo |4-PW Irons: Nike VR Pro Combo | 54º SW, 60º LW: Titleist Vokey SM8 | Putter: Odyssey Toulon Las Vegas H7

I know, I have the Pro Combos. But why did you ask that question if you are a die-hard Titleist fan?

In my bag:

Driver: Titleist TSi3 | 15º 3-Wood: Ping G410 | 17º 2-Hybrid: Ping G410 | 19º 3-Iron: TaylorMade GAPR Lo |4-PW Irons: Nike VR Pro Combo | 54º SW, 60º LW: Titleist Vokey SM8 | Putter: Odyssey Toulon Las Vegas H7

So why not look at the Titleist MBs or CBs? If you're a Titleist fan, those are the comparable version to the Nike clubs you mentioned.

    • Day 159 1-19 Flow drill while attempting to add arch in wrist on downswing. Not where it needs to be but felt good working on swing flow. 
    • Day 1 (19 Jan 26) - after a week lay-off due to travels, felt great to get in some drills in the backyard today.  Started with lead arm only short pitches focused on squared face and light divot post ball.  Haven’t done this in a while and it showed, with some skulls and slices.  Settled into easy flighted balls - wrapped up with standard two handed swings.  Good restart to the daily drills. 
    • That depends what you do within those two.  Are they your only options?   Check out Fit for Golf if you get a moment.  It's linked on the sidebar;  I did it for two years, stopped for a really bad reason, and I plan to get back to it soon.   Mike Carroll also has a great free podcast about a lot of topics in golf fitness. 
    • Day 19, 1/19.  Finished work in time to spend 25 minutes hitting balls (hit 15) indoors, off a mat, into the net.  Usual focus.    
    • Day 30 - 2026-01-19 Got 10 minutes in on the mat / net working on exagerrating movements I'm working on. And grip. Also worked with my friendly AI to summarize key negative tendencies I have so that I can build a personal checklist to follow. Will do more mirror work tonight.
