Nike Golf recentl introduced the new square shaped SasQuatch SUMO driver and the new SasQuatch SUMO driver. With these new drivers Nike Golf has evolved the innovation of geometric design to bring golfers even more distance, forgiveness and accuracy through new record levels of moment of interia (MOI).

Named SUMO for the SUper MOment of Inertia created by its geometric designs, the SQ SUMO² and the SQ SUMO sport the same distinctive yellow soleplate as the original SQ. Now even more visually distinctive due to its square head design, the SQ SUMO² features golf's highest MOI of 5300. This advanced MOI is created by the geometric square design combined with the utilization of a multi-material construction. A deeper beta titanium face, a titanium body and a composite crown combine to bring about material weight savings that are redistributed into the square design, making the driver hotter, longer and more responsive.
As such, the square geometry dramatically enhances the SQ PowerBow and SQ Max Back Center of Gravity (CG) technologies, which work together to increase MOI. The SQ SUMO, which features an all-titanium head, incorporates the same design evolution of the SQ PowerBow and SQ Max Back CG, raising its new super MOI to 4950, the highest in an all-titanium driver. Nike Golf's club wizard Tom Stites' new design has created the ideal ratio between the width of the clubface and the depth of the club head. As with the SQ SUMO², the SQ SUMO geometry pushes the breadth-to-face length ratio up, resulting in a larger, more forgiving sweet spot. The SQ SUMO² and the SQ SUMO are both 460cc, feature SasQuatch/Diamana shafts, are available in 8.5º, 9.5º, 10.5º and 13º and will carry respective suggested retail prices of $479.99 and $359.99. Both the SasQuatch SUMO² and the SasQuatch SUMO will be shipped in mid-January 2007, to be available for purchase in golf shops and stores nationwide on February 1, 2007.
Nike SQ SUMO Drivers
Titleist Titanium 975D
Description
The Titleist Titanium 975D is a pear-shape, deep face driver. The unique hosel and thru-bore shaft design and reinforced face-crown junction stiffens the head to provide increased ball speed and a sweet, solid feel and The internal weight and wall thickness are carefully managed to provide a flatter more penetrating ball flight.
Cobra HS9 M
The Cobra HS9 M Model can create a very high launch, draw bias ball flights plus mid spin and helps optimise distance for those who slice or fade. This driver has TWS which is a Triple Weighting System which lowers the centre of gravity which then increases the MOI (Moment of Inertia) for more accurate and longer shots.
Carbon composite integration in the drivers club heads crown and sole helps shift weight lower and further back. This club is very nice and comfortable to use and gives you top performance.
Adams Redline RPM 430Q Driver
Redline RPM 430QThe Redline RPM 430Q, like the other Redline RPM woods, has state-of-the-art RePositioned Mass™ technology and xFace™ engineering. The result is a traditional shape that's been designed to enhance both its appearance and performance. The latter is achieved because its large 430cc size provides forgiveness and the adjustable weights offer customized launch conditions.
RePositioned Mass™ technology in the RPM 430Q provides 44 grams of discretionary weight. This weight is relocated to deliver increased ball speed and improved launch conditions and spin rates. Fifty-five percent of the mass (two 10-gram screws and two 2-gram screws) is adjustable through four weight ports, which can be positioned to six different configurations. This customization allows golfers to optimize trajectory and ball curvature. XFace engineering expands the COR zone across the face for greater ball speed on both center and off-center hits.
"The 430Q completes the Redline RPM wood family," says Chip Brewer, CEO of Adams Golf. "It's the first driver to combine three of golf's latest technologies: composite crowns, oversized driver heads, and movable weights. The result is a bigger, hotter and more forgiving adjustable-weight driver."
Appearing with a suggested retail price of $449.99, the Redline RPM 430Q became available in golf shops in late February in the following configurations:
a. 8.5º, 9.5º right hand. 10.5º right and left hand
b. Multiple shaft options available, featuring among, others Fujikura, Aldila- NV or NVS and Grafalloy- Pro Launch, all 65 grams.
c. Flex options: XS, S, R & A
e. Golf Pride Tour Velvet Grip
f. Torque wrench and trajectory control guide
