The biggest footprint in golf has come out of hiding. Glimpses of yellow have begun appearing on the PGA Tour — yellow tracks belonging to the new Nike SasQuatch (SQ) 460 Driver, with its visually distinctive head design and yellow sole design. The SasQuatch sightings have occurred in the last month as a number of Nike Golf’s Tour Staff, including Stewart Cink, K.J. Choi, Rory Sabbatini, Paul Gow, Carl Pettersson, John Cook, Franklin Langham and Stephen Ames, have recently tested and highly praised the SQ Tour 460 version of the new driver on the PGA Tour.
It’s Unique. It’s Powerful. It’s Dangerous. It’s New Geometry. And it’s the only adjustment you need. Nike Golf’s club wizard Tom Stites has designed the ideal ratio between the width of the clubface and the depth of the club head. The SasQuatch geometry pushes the breadth-to-face length ratio up, resulting in a larger, more forgiving sweet spot.
Through the power of geometry and Max Back Center of Gravity (CG) technology, Nike Golf has been able to achieve a lower, deeper CG without the use of weights. With its CG set back, low and deep, the SasQuatch is a highly engineered, streamlined instrument of size, power and forgiveness. By way of Max Back CG, geometry teams up with physics to create three advantages:
* Forgiveness – increases the club head’s Moment of Inertia (MOI) or resistance to twisting during off-center hits
* Distance – Wider, taller sweet spot
* Accuracy – moving the CG farther back makes the clubface easier to square for straighter drives.
All of the benefits from the Max Back add up to a higher launch angle, low spin and longer distance.
Nike Golf has the Powerbow technology, which provides the visual cue of the Max Back CG’s radical geometry. Placed on the back of the driver, the Powerbow technology expands the perimeter of performance making it easier to get the ball up and hit it straight. The Powerbow adds a trailing volume of mass to apply more power and control to the ball without overstepping the 460 cc legal limit. The radical design of the Powerbow, makes the SasQuatch Driver look unlike any driver on the market because there is no driver like it on the market.
To get a hotter response and greater consistency, the SasQuatch has a face of layered yet tightly compressed titanium called NexTi, developed exclusively for Nike Golf. Available only in Nike Golf drivers, NexTi brings a revolution of control to the chaotic world of titanium structure. The NexTi titanium face is thinner, stronger and lighter than conventional titanium.

SasQuatch Tour 460
The SasQuatch Tour 460 has a taller face height with less breadth than the SasQuatch 460. This unique profile delivers a more boring trajectory and the increased workability desired by better players. The SQ Tour utilizes the tour-proven, distance-enhancing NexTi, the hottest and strongest titanium that Nike Golf has created. Combining NexTi material with the SasQuatch Geometry provides a powerful blend of distance and accuracy.
Lofts: 8.5° (X/S); 9.5° (X/S/R); 10.5° (X/S/R)
LH: 9.5° (X/S/R)

Cool. Thanks for the review. Very informative!
I wouldn’t agree that the SasQuatch Driver “looks unlike any driver on the market because there is no driver like it on the market” though. It looks a lot like this one:

Have you tried this SasQuatch clone yet? Significant savings if the quality’s good.
Happy golfing,

Big, titaniumish, with a hint of yellow. Looks a lot like another dish I just tasted.
I went thru the custom spec part and with a Graffaloy shaft it was only $138. Maight be worth a try.
Thanks for the tip and I appreciate the comment.
Great review. I love Nike golf equipment, they have some of the best products.
I agree.
