Summary: I love this driver. All the good reviews written above are so true. I was seeking a forgiving driver yet one that I could grow in to and eventually hit fades and draws, etc... I was planning on getting the Calloway Diablo or Ping because of their reviews on Golf Digest until I came across this driver at Sports Authority for only $150 and advertised to have both control and forgiveness. I bought it, went to the range and instantly I must have hit my first 15 shots perfectly straight over 200 yds.

Similar Products Used: Callaway Big Bertha, Diablo, numerous demos. I was playing with this guy who just bought a Diablo and making slices and pulls all day. I suggested he try out my new Sumo. He hit a nice draw 20 yds farther than any of his Diablo T's all day. Nike, I'm yours.

Summary: I'd long ago given up the hope of hitting a driver from the tee box. In fact, I'd been using a 3-wood with an extended shaft off the tee for years to take advantage of the increased loft. Even with this approach I was hit-or-miss from the tee; if I managed to hit the sweet spot then I was straight but if I missed even in the slightest, I was often in the trees. The 460cc driver wave came and many of my friends spoke highly of the increased forgiveness of the larger club face but I feared giving up the extra loft. The Nike lucky 13 and the sweet 16 then seemed like potential solutions to my inconsistency. I went with the 13 over the 16 because I thought the increase in required tee height for the larger club face combined with the 13 loft would more closely match the launch angle of my 3-wood. After playing a round all I can say is wow! With no range time and only a few practice swings on the first tee, I drove straighter than in any round I'd ever played in my whole life. Even miss-hits stayed in the fairway - not a single drive even went into the ruff yet alone the trees. On top of that I out drove my regular playing partners who have always had more distance off the tee. Was this a one-round fluke or is this club perfectly suited to my mediocre skills-set? I sure hope its not a fluke and that my future rounds will be as enjoyable as my last.

Summary: I recently bought a second hand, stiff shafted 10.5 and it has changed my game - for the better. The ball flight is long and high and I am hitting more fairways in regulation. I now have to learn how to chip/punch a wedge as my longer drives leave me with shorter second shots. I found that my set up was all important i.e. big tee, left big toe, stay behind ball during swing. Apart from that grip it and rip it. Loved it so much I ordered an 8.5 degree yesterday to see if I can hit the magic 300 mark. Highly recommended
