the club face really does have almost a trampoline feel to it... it's the smoothest feeling 2 iron I've ever hit, and I'm a long iron guy... I have the Adams A1 pro set with the 2 I-wood... the Adams 2 I-w gets it up more quickly from a grass lie, but given a good lie, the Nike is 15 yards longer... also, it's easy to draw... handy if you spend time in the woods left...
