Nike Golf Has Come A Lony Way.
Nike entered the golf market in 1986 with a line of golf shoes, due to increased competition and a fall in profits. Although they had already signed an up and coming young super star called Tiger Woods in 1995, Nike Golf was not formed until 1998.
They hadn’t even made a golf ball yet let alone a golf club, but this deal was reportedly worth $40 million!
Nike produced their first golf balls in 1999, but the first golf club wasn’t manufactured until 2002. Still, there’s no rushing perfection!
With an extensive range of Nike golf clubs from tour blades and iron to their game improvement irons and junior clubs, Nike have come along way in a short time.
Through massive investment at their R&D facility The Oven, Nike golf clubs now contain some of the most advanced technology around, meaning that their competitors are getting left behind. Nike has also invested heavily in their endorsement program with several of the top players in the world including Tiger Woods now using Nike golf clubs.
Nike golf clubs range in price from around $50 to $900. If you choose a set of clubs that have been released for a couple of years, you can really pick up a bargain. If your looking for the most state of the art golf clubs, then you might want to take a look a the VR, SQ or new Slingshot ranges. These clubs offer every level of golfer a top quality product that ensures making a tough game a little easier.
It is fair to say that Nike golf clubs have made huge advancements in their short years. In a way Nike possibly have a big advantage offer their competitors because they have seen what the others were doing, what worked and what didn’t, then took the good things and made them better!
Whether you are buying your first set of clubs or a golfer at the top of your game their is a set of Nike golf clubs to suit you.
