Rave Reviews for Nike Slingshot Hybrid Golf Clubs
June 2008 by Randy · Leave a Comment
Nike Slingshot hybrids and Slingshot fairway wood clubs are finding their way into the bags of more and more pro golfers. This is not because of Tiger, but because of the rave reviews they are getting and their performance on the course.
The Slingshot Hybrid come in lofts of 2 (17 degrees), 3 (20 degrees), 4 (23 degrees), 5 (26 degrees), and 6 (30 degrees) replacing long to mid-irons and even a 5-wood. Shaft weights are 92 grams in regular flex, 93 grams in stiff flex, and 97 grams in extra-stiff. All lofts are available in left handed versions.
A 55 year old golfer, with a handicap or 18, got the Nike Slingshot fairway woods (18, 21 and 24 degrees) to replace his long irons. With the the 18 degrees Slingshot wood, he can hit an average of 180 yards and says: “These clubs are extremely forgiving because the sweet spot is lower and the club head has a wider sole. Now I don’t even care to use my regular fairway woods 3 and 5. This is a must buy for golfers with a 15+ handicap.”
I’ve been researching these clubs online and have found nothing but good things from golfers who use them. There are a lot of comments like these:
