Paul Casey spilled the beans about Nike Victory Red Tour Driver on his Twitter page back on September 15. However, the company has now officially released both versions of the club and revealed more details about their design.
The Nike Victory Red STR8-Fit Tour driver has a traditional headshape that varies in size between 440cc to 460cc based on the loft. The stock shaft is an Aldila Voodoo, but the first thing that golfers will notice about the club is the orange Compression Channel running along the bottom of the club. You can also buy Nike Victory Red STR8-FIT Tour Fairway Wood.
Paul Casey Talks VR Tour Driver: "The VR Tour is a great blend of technology and aesthetics. It still has a high moment of inertia, but combined with the new compression channel, I can get away with off-center hits toward the bottom of the club face and not lose distance. The big advantage for consumers is that they can customize the loft and lie with 32 different positions. They can shape the ball a little easier. The most pleasant surprise is that the technology feels as good if not better than a traditional glued driver. My worry was that the feeling up the shaft into my grip would be different, as this is not a permanent connection. But the feel is great, and knowing that I can change the loft and lie is really cool for a fan of club -technology."
PROS: Head feels stable through impact with above-average correction on off-center hits; clubface adjustability is a definite plus—simply dial in settings for consistent accuracy; some testers find that shots jump off the face; more traditional look is a big upgrade over recent Nike drivers; the long shaft gives you the sense that you're swinging faster; better overall than the SQ Sumo 5900 Tour.
According to Nike, the channel allows the lower portion of the driver's head to bend slightly when shots are hit lower in the face. Tom Stites, Nike director of product innovation, says that's a good thing.
