That Nike Method of his is basically a Scotty Cameron. It has the same specifications as his original Scotty.

Plus he has always used those grips. I'm sure Nike doesn't care.

He's used that grip ever since he played the Anser growing up

Another fun fact: I dk if it's still true but Tiger used to play a Bridgestone ball with a Nike logo on it. Nike had to pay Bridgestone a shite load for that I'm sure, but that chip they turned into a Nike commercial was with a Bridgestone.
At least that's what I've been told

There's all kinds of rumors like that. The ball is a Nike ball though, and he's been playing a Nike ball cause he's heavily involved in the design. The only rumor that has a lot of possible truth to it is that he plays Miura irons with a Nike stamp

That may have been true in the past, but I'm sure nike is making a ball to Tiger's liking by now. This is the same as the rumor that Tiger played Miura blades with a Nike stamp on them.

I believe it when he was younger on both rumors. Nike used to have real shitty golf stuff

Pretty sure that's not true. There's other rumors out there including his Nike irons being forged in Japan by Miura

The Nike VR pro combo irons are amazing. If I hadn't bought my Titleist ap1s, those were my next choice. They might be my next set when I upgrade

How do you even buy those Miuras?

I did a quick look online and the cheapest I saw was like $1200. They looked spiffy though. Like a Hattori Hanzo sword.

They have a bunch of independent US retailers/fitters

They are not cheap, but consider you're getting a custom hand forged/ground club
