Have never been a fan of Nike products but my Alpha 815 was driving me nuts. So while at Dick's they had the Nike Vapor Fly driver (formerly $350} on sale for $179. It was a risk and I was totally unfamiliar with the Mitsubishi Rayon Tensei CK Blue shaft. In any case out I went today for 18 with this driver with my fingers crossed. WOW!
All day, good swings and bad, I was in every fairway. Distance was the same or 10+ yards longer then the Alpha 815 on good swings. The Tensei shaft felt great also and though I'm not sure if it contributed to the straight drives it felt as good as any shaft I've had before. I had it set at 9.5° and straight and the trajectory was perfect for me. This might be the honeymoon but I did not swing the driver any differently then I have been. This one just goes straight instead of left and right and who knows what else. The deep face for me was also a plus.
As far as looks the blue is nice but kind of clashes with the lime green. But I don't care. It works. Will continue to add to this review as I hit it more. The adjustment is simple and works and the headcover is better then Cally's.
