    What was the precision on the L90 R11s?  New ones are 4.5. If that's the same as the old L90 R11s great job.  Canlt say I ever noticed any difference that way upgrading.  

    If that's less than the old L90 R11s I can see a few not being too happy??

    Putters...Be geez...L101.  Looks a very nice tempting new toy.  Won't make bat crap difference to me putting I am sure, but looks v nice:).............EDIT: See Andys point if a Nike man.....

    L103 new 289 yard R1 driver.  Only half way to L103 from L 102.  Rated with 2 extra yards, and higher trajectory.  No variable anything on it, and so no rush for that 1 on the face of it. 

    Being critical I just don't see how it's encouraging people to really stay IF levels remain the only route to this stuff.  Get there and we know it's the player that counts but at L90 L103 is such a very long way away.  EDIT: Then again in fairness with the new irons conformed as a solid (lost nothing) upgrade everything is in place to score well, and so no disadvantage to the player post L90 now, IMO.  Still think WGT ar emissing a trick spurring people on but player wise they have addresed a real issue, and done so v well.   

    Hopefully though the precision on those new irons is not less than the L90 R11s.  Would feel for some really talented TLs (playing real stuff) to take a lesser precision rating for a year or more (whatever that actually converts to or not).

    Same precision and Forgiveness as the R11s.  An extra 0.5 on the Spin and Meter Speed though.  I stuck with the Nikes as I couldn't handy the R11s meter speed.  Will give these new clubs a try.

    Everything the same but the meter speed Jim

    Solid move then.  Overdue really, and no surprise.  nice upgrade to an already very solid set.

    Just looked again at that L101 Nike putter again and same meter speed as my L96 Versa.  Good enough new toy (presumably more for Versa people), but may or may not look at it down the track.  Don't know why they fiddled with the scales either.  Best just to leave the Nikes as they are and let the Versas have the 15. 30 etc... I would have thought
