I am an avid Nike Golf fanatic. I have their Victory red irons, driver, woods, and putter. Therefore, I am a little biased about their products. Unfortunately, when it came to bags, I always believed that their golf bags were very inferior compared to the other top bag makers.

The Nationwide Series continued on February 20, 2010 with the Stater Bros. 300, held in California. Joey Logano had the pole, with his teammate Kyle Busch on the outside. It probably wasn’t a big surprises that this front row ended up in the heat of the battle …
