The Nike Method Core Drone is a stable and forgiving putter. It was designed to significantly improve performance while still conforming to the very strict rules of USGA. At the same time, it portrays the iconic brand identity for Nike Golf, a space that Nike has very recently entered. The Core Drone was designed for professional tour players, but it can also be helpful to amateur players.
