Whoa..those look like a trophy that you'd win in an amateur tournament or something lol. I'd be scared to hit those!

Or Elvis' belt buckle. There is such a thing as "too much"!

LOL, I could be wrong.  Maybe GMAC and Keegan actually own it. ;) Whatever it is, BTW, it's including an appearance on Jimmy Fallon by Rory and Tiger.** **I think it's officially Ror

Not too shabby Edel Blades... but the Vapors are great in a MOMA kind of way.

These kind of remind me of a floral couch that was given to me...

Bingo! @Valleygolfer nailed it. I was searching for the right comparison but Elvis' belt buckle was the closest I got. The floral coach is bang on! Lol.

Regardless, if they make @Mr. Desmond , I am happy for him. I did not say it to offend. :beer:

I did say they "were not shabby." :drool:

But at $4,500 for the Edel Engraved Blades, about 3X more than the normal Edel CB, I'll pass without regrets.

But I'll say this for Nike, they've modernized the look of a blade.

I guess I just don't know enough about clubs, because I don't really see anything special about these in terms of "aesthetic" design.. I can't comment on their "functional" design, but I would love to hear more about how these are any different from other irons on the market.  Call me reluctant to buy into the hype!

It's not often that I agree with Eyad, but I agree, aesthetically they do nothing for me. Not crazy about the black plasticky part with the neon green swoosh, would have liked to see them with plain steel look across the back.

Nope, me neither.

I'm with you guys, I don't like the look or neon green swoosh.  I guess they are trying to steal some market share from the Cobra Bio-Cell irons.

Idk, those engraved ones look like something Cheech and Chong would have played... Dating myself now...

I'm not a nike fan myself but once I saw this lineup of vapor irons I thought wow, if nothing else they caught my eye and clearly made us all talk about them. I think Nike already won. the neon green can be a turn off for some, for others me included it looks nice (I like green). I think those that like nike won't be bothered by the green. those that don't like it probably wouldn't buy the irons even if the swoosh was red, black or whatever their fav colour was. I think and this may only be me here, but I think nike wants to bring in a new colour and move away from the victory red. Rory is the new face for nike and with all of Tigers problems maybe this is a way for nike to phase out an "old" look and introduce the "new" nike, Rory's Nike. But that could just be me.

I've never really liked any of the Nike irons I've tried, but today I demo'd the Vapor Pro Combo. Other than being a little too trendy looking (the bright green is too much for me), they are a really nice iron. Not sure I'll throw them into the running (purely based on how they look) for my next set though (which the front runners are Mizuno MP and Srixon 745). But for anyone who is not off-put by the styling... Might be worth checking them out

      The Players -2026

      This is an awesome breakdown. most of the bigger tournaments usually have one wave with the advantage, Thank you for the breakdown. If it is soft then it will be a lower final score

      The Players -2026

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Over the past 15 years, the winning score has ranged from -10 to -20. Mostly around -13.  Here is Thursday and Friday weather. Saturday and Sunday weather. I think the course will play soft. Plenty of sky cover, lots of rain on Thursday. Fairways and greens will probably stay soft throughout the week.  In terms of tee times, I think Thursday morning and Friday afternoon have the biggest advantage. I bolded the big group of each set.  Most beneficial with the weather Round 1: No. 1 tee, Round 2: No. 10 tee 7:40 a.m., 12:30 p.m.: Mark Hubbard, Thorbjørn Olesen, Mac Meissner 7:52 a.m., 12:42 p.m.: Bud Cauley, Vince Whaley, Chandler Phillips 8:04 a.m., 12:54 p.m.: Emiliano Grillo, Christiaan Bezuidenhout, Max Greyserman 8:16 a.m., 1:06 p.m.: Kevin Yu, Cam Davis, Gary Woodland 8:28 a.m., 1:18 p.m.: Ricky Castillo, Ryan Gerard, Patrick Cantlay 8:40 a.m., 1:30 p.m.: Adam Schenk, Garrick Higgo, Matt McCarty 8:52 a.m., 1:42 p.m.: Brian Harman, Maverick McNealy, Davis Riley 9:04 a.m., 1:54 p.m.: Sami Valimaki, Lucas Glover, Matt Fitzpatrick 9:16 a.m., 2:06 p.m.: Michael Brennan, Harris English, J.T.

      By MentalityJohn · Posted

      We have a very difficult but mostly showy course this week. Lets see what they got. This course offers so many chances to get into trouble it is really a mental minefield. I am excited to see who can handle it and who cant. Last year we got a foreshadowing of JJ and Rory, I am excited for this year Who do people have winning? what will the winning score be? I am thinking 12 or 13 under
