VERY nice driver for the most part. I had a few problems with this driver though. First off the 10.5 which is my normal loft for a 15* launch was 9.5* launch angle which made me lose some distance. Also it had a slight fade which is very controllable and consistant so thats no big deal and thats pretty much it. BTW with this low launch my distance was still 250 but I know I could get further with better carry so it should be close to my normal distance.

Well it seems as if the golf gods don't want me to use my new driver. I got my Sasquatch from UPS around 7pm on friday night. I planned on going out to the range on saturday but I had some things to do, which took longer than I thought, and by the time I got to the range they were closed. I figured I'd go down there today, even though we were having winds that would make the ones in Kapalua this weekend look like a mild breeze. I get down to the range and the guy tells me he had to shut down the range today because the strong winds tore down some of the nets that go along the road!!! I'm not sure when I'm going to be able to go this week now seeing as I work 8-5. This is just not right lol.

In my somewhat limited use of the SasQuatch driver (50 balls or so) I would have to rate it somewhere near Par. Although it sounds great when you hit it, I couldn't really get much feedback from the ball. Overall, I would say it is probably a good club for the average golfer, but a lower handicapper might prefer something with a little more feel. Just my opinion.

I've used my Sasquatch at the range a few times and played 18 with it on Saturday and I love it. I got the 9.5 with the stock stiff shaft and have been hitting it great. Definitely better than the Ignite 460 that I was using before, it is great feeling.

I bought my Sasquatch today and I love it. As long as I do my part, I can bomb drives out there and straight. I'd say I get an extra 35yds with this driver than my old one(from Walmart)

Exactly how I feel about it with the same setup. I hit fairway woods very well and this club despite its size feels like one to me. Bigger front to back than sole to crown, so its more shallow and easier for me to hit.

I hit one in olfsmith on the monitor before..I liked it, but not more than the driver I have now...it was great, accurate, and long...ugly, no doubt, but it did the job nicely..but I don't see it replacing my RHCP. A Par overall.

I have a Nike SQ in 10.5* and I love it. I only loved it though after I replaced the Diamana OEM shaft which is ****. Now I rarely miss a fairway. Did I mention its loooooong?

i bought mine today, sq460 10.5 factory shaft R flex.

this thing is so forgiving, if you hit it off center, it doesnt slice like crazy. I was actually able to drive the ball my usual distances. unlike my old junk wilson driver which was completely unforgiving, any off center hits and it would slice away.

i love this thing, great feel, great sound.

Re: Nike Sasquatch Driver Review

I just bought one, too, which is very forgiving and long.

I notice that I have to tee it a lot lower than the Hibore.

Re: Nike Sasquatch Driver Review

After using the launch monitor,I was told the 13 ' Nike was the one for me.After 12 games,I couldn't hit it 170 yards.I traded it for a 10 1/2,' same club,and am now hitting it 210 yards.So much for trusting the launch monitor,but the Nike is great.

Talking Re: Nike Sasquatch Driver Review

I've been using a Taylor Made Burner for several years that I was very happy with , but ran into a Nike SQ at an incredible price and couldn't pass it up (Got it for 43.09 and that's with tax! That is a story I will tell at another time.) I took it and my Burner to the driving range and hit the burner a half dozen times to get a base to compare the SQ to. The first swing with the Burner hit the ground about five yards past where my TM had ROLLED to and rolled another 10 or twelve yards beyond that. The distance was more than adequate for my needs. (I'm hitting about 268 to 278 and I'm almost 54 years old...nowhere near the flexability I had in my College golf team days)and the look of it at address just gives me confidence. I find myself unafraid to take a full swing with this club and the accuracy is magnificent!!! Eagle all the way for my vote!!!
