BEAVERTON, Ore. -- Nike Golf is adding more speed to its new SQ Machspeed line with the addition of the Nike SQ Machspeed fairway woods. The new SQ Machspeed fairway woods will use the power of Total Swing Aerodynamics to help golfers hit the ball farther and straighter.

As with the recently announced Nike SQ Machspeed drivers, the SQ Machspeed fairway woods are loaded with ground-breaking technology, specifically the combination of square technology and Nike's Total Swing Aerodynamic Design.

Nike's Total Swing Aerodynamic engineering moves air faster across the sole, over the crown and around the skirt for incremental swing speed advances. Nike designed the SQ Machspeed fairway woods to optimize the aerodynamics throughout the entire swing and to deliver more speed and reduce drag.

TOTAL SWING AERODYNAMIC DESIGN

Nike's Total Swing Aerodynamic design reduces drag throughout the entire swing, which results in a faster clubhead and increased ball speed.

Fast Start

At the beginning of the downswing, the tapered heel geometry and toe-side aerodynamic Nike PowerBow design promote smooth air flow around the head for quicker acceleration.

Acceleration

As speed increases, so does drag force. But the aerodynamic Nike PowerBow and sole diffuser designs keep the airflow smooth and close to the club surface, reducing drag and encouraging a faster acceleration.

Maximum Speed

Drag reduction through-out the downswing allows the club to reach its true maximum speed, delivering maximum energy to the ball.
