I don’t hit my irons high. You found these & the cally apex to be long but
not particularly high. Should that be concerning for me? I’ve demo’d the
apex & they were a bit lower than I like although they still spun. I didn’t
find them that much longer than my titleist ap1 712. ?
Hello Mark, the reason they have the word ” Forged” on them is so they can
up the price to snobbier ( or stupider ) golfers by 15% !?
Strong lofts are not bad as long as they launch like a 7 iron should. With
all the help modern clubs are getting these days they have to make the
lofts stronger or you would launch a 7 like an 8…?
Just bought these earlier today at my local golf store. I golf almost
everyday and average 56 and today played 27 holes and shot 51, 52 and 49. I
feel like it helped my game out a whole bunch.?
Tried these Covert 2 forged. Loved them. Fantastic unique feel. Distance
off mis hits was impressive. Thought i would hate the grips– loved them.
very different from what i expected. looking down- not chunky.- used
nippon S shaft- nice. play titleist- I’m thinking nike will be in the bag
soon.?
i actually purchased these irons before watching this video, just
interested to see other views on them. i spent most of my day off at
american golf and its sister driving range trying a whole load of irons. it
was obvious early on it was going to be between the xhot 2’s and these
covert tours, but really i was convinced before hitting them these were the
clubs, they just felt balanced. i hate bottom heavy clubs just like i hate
bottom heavy cricket bats. they are forgiving. no one likes getting poor
contact on the ball but even if you do, these clubs still send it out
there. arguably, if you hit a bad shot you don’t deserve the ball to still
carry a decent distance but hey ho! good vid as always sir, i like the
look, feel, sound, everything apart from two things, one, the price. like
anything though decent stuff costs more, and the back cavities, they are
hard to clean! ?
Would love to see you review the “standard” Nike VRS Covert 2.0 irons (as
opposed to these “forged” ones).
Also, regarding the whole forged thing, I just saw another video where a
fellow was interviewing a Nike guy out on the range and he said that they
use a “forged 10-20, a softer stainless for the body and hosel,” but that
they “weld in a high-strength steel faceplate” for ballspeed out of the
thinner face. Thought some of you might find that interesting.
Keep up the great videos!?
What’s the vrs covert 2.0 irons like mark ?
?
how do these compare to the nike vrs forged? love all your vids!! ?
Simple answer – because its forged in manufacture and not cast!?
Why do people always complain about the slow mo, ie; divot is different
etc, who cares?
They say forged on them because they’re forged. The sound and feel is all
to do with the metal used and the fact there’s a giant cavity on the back,
and technically not “solid” like a MB. ?
Can you do the regular 2.0 irons ?
Hi Mark! Will you be testing the cast ones? ?
Hey Mark, great videos. I’m a Canadian boy who watches your vids all the
time and find them a great help. Can you compare these to both another set
and against the cast covert 2.0.. I would love to know how they match up?
Mark great video as always, I can almost see a new category of irons
starting to form: the “forged” distance iron. It would be great to see a
comparison video of these irons, callaway apex, and mizuno jpx-ez forged.
Thanks?
For everyone who says these are jacked lofts and longer than
normal…please check specs these irons are standard length…and only one
degree stronger than standard in most clubs…..so NOT longer shafts!!?
That iron looks like ship.?
Haha, what’s with the divot going bigger then small??? A bit of dodgy
editing??? Good video…….?
Hi Mark, nice vid and think this is a big year for Nike Golf as making some
good stuff (loving my Covert 1.0 hybrid at the moment).
Surely the reason they put forged on the club is the manufacturing process
compared to their cast offerings? Some people will buy into that (less
imperfections in the making etc) but very interesting that they don’t feel
forged compared to say a Mizuno forged set.?
do a review on Nick Covert 2.0 Tour Version
?
How would you compare this to the new CB’s from titleist??
Good vid like always can you compare the covert tour driver and the 2.0
tour driver thanks
?
Nike is impressive. Top notch.
(They’re never the same swings. You can usually tell by ball flights but,
yeah, the divots on this one)?
Yet stronger lofts & longer shafts? Hmm! Good review Mark, thanks?
i have the forged split cavities and they feel quite loud and hard too?
I am not sure I understand why there is a need with some golf club
companies to make strong lofted clubs. For several years now we have been
told “Get rid of your 2 and 3 irons and buy hybrids”. Now they are back to
making a 2 iron, just stamped 3 or 4 on the bottom.?
Forged is just a the process used in manufacturing and nothing to do with
feel.The feel on most forgings comes from the metal used.You see
manufactures say “made with 1025 carbon steel” or a softer metal.Nike uses
a harder thinner carpenter steel for the face which gives it the harder
feel and hotter performance.Still a forged iron just made with firmer
metal.?
I might be in the minority here but I like the look of these. Look like a
worth replacement for when my old skool Mizuno MX300 give up the ghost?
Hi Mark, just wondering if you could tell me if a high handicap player like
myself would be able to tell the difference & benefit between these and the
non forged as i’m thinking of putting the non forged VRS covert irons in
the bag. I don’t want to make the mistake of buying these new irons when i
can get the same performance out of the old model for £200 less.
Thanks, Gareth.?
Thank you as always for your reviews and thoughts. You had enjoyed the RBZ
Tours which is my current set. How do you see these in comparison??
Im excited to see your review of the Nike Covert Tour 2.0 and the Callaway
X2 Hot driver. Good work sir!?
