The Nike SQ Dymo STR8-Fit and Dymo2 STR8-Fit are adjustable versions of the SQ Dymo (which stands for "dynamic MOI") and Dymo2 (pronounced “Dymo squared”). Basically, the STR8-FIT ("straight fit") system is available with a traditional rounded head (Dymo) and square version (Dymo2). Let’s first look at the clubheads before moving to the STR8-Fit system.

The Dymo and Dymo2 clubheads have Nike’s PowerBow weighting which places the center of gravity differently depending on the loft of the club – ie. it gets thicker as the loft increases from 8.5° to 14.5° to move the weight further back and to the heel for an added draw bias. In higher lofts, the center of gravity is put forward and higher for less spin and a penetrating trajectory. For lower lofts, the center of gravity is deep and low for more spin and higher trajectory on launch.

The Dymo2 golf driver has a square head built for straight and long drives, as well as great sound and optimal launch by loft (another top rated square driver is the Callaway FT-iQ driver). The Dymo’s round head is designed for workable distance and control (another top rated 2009 driver with a traditional clubhead shape is the Callaway FT-9 driver). Both Nike clubheads are made from titanium and are sized 460cc.

The STR8-Fit is essentially an adjustable hosel system that allows the player to change the lie or clubface angle to one of eight positions. Using the wrench included with the golf driver, the following can be adjusted: face angle (2 degrees closed to 2 degrees open), lie angle (58 degrees to 62 degress) and effective loft (8.5 degress to 12.5 degress). This allows the player to adjust the ball flight for a straighter drive depending on their swing or course conditions. The adjusting wrench is stored in the driver’s head cover and there is a head positioning reference wheel to help players adjust the clubhead position. The wrench actually lights up and sounds an alarm when the correct amount of torque is achieved.

The new 360 degree grip design means that there are inverted pyramids for maximum traction and grip for the left hand, and a tread pattern for comfort and feel for the right hand.

Both the Dymo and Dymo2 titanium clubheads are 460cc in size with lofts of 8.5, 9.5, 10.5, 11.5 and HT. The length is 45.75 inches. The shaft is a UST AXIV core shaft and is available in X, S, R, A and W.

The Company Says:

"Str8-Fit technology [which allows players to adjust clubface angle to eight different settings] is by far the most effective way to change ball flight that I've seen. All players can benefit from this technology and hit shots straighter and farther than ever." - Tom Stites, Director of Product Creation.

What Others Say:

"A good-looking club at setup. It sounds a little thud-ish, but the ball went forever." – Golf Digest

“Overall, we think that the Nike DYMO Str8 Fit is one of the best golf drivers we have hit in 2009. All of the issues we had with the 2008 version were corrected and they have a dynamic golf club on their hands this time.” – The Hackers Paradise

"Hugely impressed...superb model...clear difference in flight." – Golf Monthly
