What started with a plan to develop game improvement irons for his son led Tom Stites, Director of Product Creation for Nike Golf, on a decade-long journey of designs, prototypes, and testing – all intent on shifting the center of gravity (CG) of each club to promote getting the ball in the air with minimal effort and increased forgiveness.
The Slingshot irons’ Slingback technology – a metal bar arcing from heel to toe – positions the CG low, rearward and in the heel of long irons to facilitate squaring the club head at impact and to create a higher ball flight for long, soft-landing shots. Throughout the set, the flow weighting of the Slingback design shifts the CG incrementally higher, closer to the face, and towards the toe as it moves toward the short irons. This progression reduces the launch angle and increases the spin rate which helps prevent shots from ballooning while maintaining the ability to hold greens.
