Nike VR Pro Utility Club

4.4 stars out of 5 (Based on 5 reviews)

The Nike VR Pro Hybrids convey beauty, refinement and premium sophistication. The engineers at the Nike Golf R&D facility, The Oven, have worked with Nike Golf Tour athletes to deliver more speed on the clubface for longer, penetrating shots. The full Compression Channel technology along with variable face thickness creates a face 21% hotter than Nike’s previous VR Hybrid, which increases speed for greater distance and control.

The VR Pro Hybrid is designed with a sole that produces cleaner hits from any turf condition. The Sole Camber on the VR Pro Hybrid is flatter on lower lofts for tighter lies and deeper on higher lofts for more shot options. The flatter sole of the VR Pro Hybrid keeps more of the club on the ground, maintaining a seamless transition from hybrids to irons. The new VR Pro Hybrids closely match the profiles of the VR Pro Irons for a consistent look at address.

To meet the demands of Nike Golf Tour athletes, the VR Pro Hybrids were designed with less draw bias. The longer club head eliminates the hybrid’s tendency toward more draw by moving the centre of gravity away from the hosel. Moving the CG slightly forward and lower optimises ball flight to create a penetrating ball flight that can be used in all conditions.

Nike VR Pro Utility Club Review

The Nike VR Pro Hybrid is an big improvement over Nike's previous Victory Red Hybrid. The VR Pro model sees a more traditional colour scheme to compliment the compression channel on the sole of the club which Nike claim increases ball speed and distance. Our first impression of the club was the small size of the clubhead, which appears to look more like a driving iron than many of the utility clubs on the market. The polished and matte finish of the clubface creates the look of a face-insert that again makes the clubhead seem smaller at address.

Any concerns we had with the looks were quickly dismissed after only a few shots. The VR Pro Hybrid is much more forgiving than it looks and the club's ability to alter ball flight and shape were impressive. The solid, penetrating feel of the club felt great for shots from the fairway as well as off the tee and the Project X shaft delivered power and control. The smaller look of the head will mean that the Nike VR Pro Hybrid is more suited to lower handicappers than the VR Pro driver and fairway but it is still well worth a try.

If you are looking for a hybrid that looks more like the old fashioned driving iron then the Nike VR Pro is for you. Nike look like they have gone back to the earliest hybrid designs for the VR Pro and the smaller head offers the better player all the control possibilities you would want. The VR Pro was easy to hit both ways as well as up and down and had a pleasingly penetrating ball flight. Definitley worth a go.
