Air Force One club juices up your golf game — with nitrogen!

It takes a golf swing speed of 110 mph to correctly compress the face of a golf club to maximize the smash factor (energy transfer from the swing to the ball). The fact is most golfers swing much slower and therefore aren't getting the maximum distance. That's where PowerBilt's Air Force One driver comes in.
Here's how it works: The clubhead is infused with nitrogen, with the pressure going as high as 150 psi. Using this "nitrogen-charged" technology, it increases the trampoline effect to help golfers hit 10 to 15 yards further, even if the swing isn't at 110 mph. Remarkably, the driver performs within USGA regulations. Drivers are $500, while fairway woods are $350, and hybrids are $250.

I doubt I would every buy one of these. Sounds like snake-oil tech to me. But it doesn't appear to be a cheat. It even says..."Remarkably, the driver performs within USGA regulations."
Maybe MANTA DUDE didn't read the article?
