Nike SasQuatch Sumo 460 Drivers

Nike SasQuatch Sumo 460 Drivers 

DESCRIPTION

Having won the Golf Digest Editor's Choice for drivers in 2006, it was no doubt a challenge to improve on the original all titanium SasQuatch driver. What made the original great, makes the new SasQuatch Sumo even better - a new NIKE PowerBow geometry results in a higher MOI of 4950g cm2 vs. 4650g cm2. Therefore, SasQuatch Sumo delivers even more distance and forgiveness.

An extremely good driver, for those of you who like to feel some weight at the end of the shaft when you swing this is an awesome club.

The stiff shaft is probably a better bet for those of us who swing in the 85 - 95 range. The regular shaft is a little whippy.

I am able to easily keep it in play and average about 230-240 yards on the drive.

I own the SQ SuMo Lucky13 R shaft. I bought it used for a hundred dollars (what a bargain). I really like this club. I'm never gonna hit the 300 yard drive, but 200 - 220 is fine with me. this club is VERY forgiving. I am suprized by the fact that mis-hits don't go that far offline. Don't get me wrong I hit some terrible shots here and there, we all do, but it's usually when I try to let out the shaft instead of swinging within myself. Overall I find this club to be much better than the Sasquatch 460 version. I, like many others, have tried a ton of different drivers, but this one will be in my bag for a while. In my opinion the sound is not as bad as some make it out to be, I think Cobra drivers have a very different and louder sound. Great club, well made, fun to hit.

Great driver for most people. Not as straight as the Sumo2 Square version, but definitely much more workable if that's what you're looking for.

Stock shaft was not ideal for me, but it appears to be a quality shaft for stock. The club is quality, but can lack feel sometimes.

Mis-hits(this site has a terrible profanity filter)* felt near as good as great shots.

Just got the club a few weeks ago and am already seeing improvement on my drives. I am getting about 20-30 yards more on my drives than I used to and am getting more forgiveness on those bad swings. it really has improved my game.

It has added 10 to 20 yards and the mis-hits are more forgiving. I played last weekend, had 2 drives that were unbelievable. The first one I crushed and it just took off at about 300 yds. The 2nd drive, I teed it up a little too high and I could feel that it went off the top of the club. It still out drove everyone even not hitting it flush at 250 and it went straight.

Your swing is what matters, but this club will help negate those bad swings and will definitely enhance your good swings with some bombs. Great value!!

Just got it and only one word can describe it, "Amazing". I normally just left my driver in the bag and used my 3 wood off of the tee. I never really had problems with hitting it straight with my previous drivers, unless I tried to kill it, it was just a comfort thing. After getting this driver I just stepped up and swung away and it was right down the middle. I really don't know how much more distance I've added (I haven't played a round with it) and the range I hit it at didn't have accurate markers. I can tell you that the launch and accuracy alone are worth it. I can see an increase in distance I just don't know how much. The forgiveness everyone has spoke of is true and I don't know what the gripe, some people have about the sound, is all about. It sounds solid when I hit it. I can definitely see that it will help with some strokes just because the ball will be in play.

There is absolutely no driver or golf club that will 100% change the way you play the game or dramatically change your scores. But the Nike SasQuatch Sumo 460 Driver is definately top of the line for a cheaper price. I'd reccomend it to anyone because it is not going to make the game harder for you. Best driver I've ever owned, but remember its the golfer that makes the driver. The high MOI HELPS you to drive straighter but don't expect that if you buy tihs or any driver that you will play like the pros. Great driver! Happy golfing!

I have played the SQ SUMO now since it came out.
I manage a golf shop that specializes in fitting and selling golf equipment. I usually get any equipment free from sales rep's so I try it all out.
I was originally hesitant about the Nike driver because I thouight it was primarily a marketing driven product, I'm a big TIGER fan, but not the type to play clubs based on tour stats. This driver is also my first 9.5 loft.
I've used 8.5 75 gram high kick low torque x-stiff's forever, this club I got with the VS PROTO 65 x at -1/2" I put a reminder ribbed tour velvet full cord grip on it and can't believe how hard it bores through the air, I am already long but now it's not even close. I'm really shocked at how big this club goes, this year I can't count how many times my regular playing partners "demanded" to hit this driver just to settle for themselves that it wasn't "hot." It launches high with little spin which makes it bore hard and straight, I don't get roll out much but that is consistant with drivers for me anyway. I have never been so accurate, I do like the sound which is important, and I really came around to the appearance quickly when I began to believe in this club's design. Tee it high and hit it on the way up, a shorter shaft really seemed to make starting it online easy.

Model Reviewed: Sasquatch SUMO vs proto x flex

compared to my ft5 9.5 this SUMO added ten yards with more confidence. The accuracy is much the same as the ft5 but longer which makes it better. My swing speed is ranged from 119 to normally 123mph, so i needed an x flex which was tough to find. Nice driver though, you should try it.

Quick 7 month update. Still in love with this club. The price dropped recently and I highly recommend picking one up. I am able to concentrate on my short game now and don't drive more than 20 balls with it at the range. I can swing a little easier since I made the move from 9.5 to 10.5 degree and the increased fairways make me smile all week. I am now bringing more course management into my game because I am not always left with 210 to the hole anymore. This club is so great, I picked up the 3 wood with the new sole design today. More on that another day. Tee 'em high ....
