Who is looking forward to trying the new Nike Covert cavity back driver? With Nike set to announce Rory as its newest member to team Nike plus the improvements in their newest clubs and balls I think Nike is ready to make a huge move to being one of the top golf brands

Probably not a lot. Not only does that driver look ugly as frick, but it also looks like something from the TW video games, being red and all.

not a fricking chance. Nike will always be a 2nd tier brand. Do you know what all the top tier brands have in common? They all specialize in golf. Not only that, but Nike had Tiger from early on, and you think Rory is going to be the one to catapult them?

Don't get me wrong, they make good stuff. Just not GREAT stuff.

If its giving people up to 10mph more ball speed like I've heard then who cares what it looks like?

The cavity back design had me interested. Then I saw the red crown. Not interested at all.

And as weave said, Rory won't carry Nike any farther than TW did.

You are the kind of person golf companies love. I bet you believed TaylorMade when they said they would add 15 yards to you drives.

You think that's all it's giving it? Research it a little more, I doubt it increases ONLY ball speed, if at all.

And plenty of people will care what it looks like. People wouldn't by the TaylorMade because it was white. People simply don't want to look at a bright color as they take it back, it distracts them. If someone is buying it just because it might help them hit it 3 yards farther, they are wasting money.

They added a couple inches to my dick, too.
