Nike Sasquatch Driver Reviews

By Clint Hale

Nike's Sasquatch line is one of the more popular on the market.

Specs

Nike's current line of SasQuatch (SQ) drivers currently features the SQ DyMo, SQ DyMo2, SQ DyMo STR8-FIT and SQ DyMo2 STR8-FIT. All clubs features the option of a square club head or traditional round version. The standard DyMo and DyMo2 are designed for distance and forgiveness, while the STR8-FIT line features a shaft adapter, which grants you access to eight different club head positions. The traditional DyMo retails for approximately $400, while the STR8-FIT models retail closer to $450.

Perks

The SQ's large club head is designed to maximize distance, and on this front, it delivers the goods. The large traditional round club head also allows for more shot control. The STR8-FIT in particular, is optimal for controlling shot placement, due to its shaft adapter and ability to shape shots eights different ways.

Sacrifices

Nike's square club head can take some getting used to, since most drivers feature a traditional round club head. Also, the club doesn't make the customary "ping" at point of impact, but more like a dull metallic noise that isn't quite as crisp.

Bottom Line

Nike's traditional SQ DyMo and STR8-FIT, while a bit pricey, are a solid addition to any golf bag. They deliver on Nike's promise of increased distance and forgiveness, while the STR8-FIT line is ideal for golfers looking for one of the more durable drivers on the market.

Golf Equipment Tip of the Day

Using Frequency to Test the Flex of Your Shafts
by Jeff Jackson
What's the flex of your shafts? At one time, a golfer could safely answer that his or her shafts were stiff, regular or ladies flex. That simply isn't the case any longer. Most manufacturers have their own method of shaft measurement. What this means is that one company's "R" flex shaft may actually be softer than another's "A" or even "L" flex. How, then, can a golfer select the appropriate shaft if no manufacturing standard exists? In a word: frequency.
