    It doesn't matter what club you hit, if the face is open you'll fade/slice and if the face is closed (all relative to path) you'll draw/hook.

    The thing about the square high MOI drivers is that if you heel or toe them, the gear effect isn't nearly as bad. But if they're not square, you still don't get straight.

      Absolutely correct! I don;t have a problem hitting it straight I was just curious if you can intentionally hit a nice fade or draw off the tee it the hole is asking for it. Some drivers I have used, especially with my Burner, with a semi closed face have issues with trying to fade the ball. I guess it would be the same as any other driver out there, but its just square. i took a few swings with it at a store and it actually felt really good. Ball control (Fade; draw) and trajectory control are my concerns. I know some of the smaller heads like the classic Titleist 983K promote better ball control. But I want something with some substance, and something that if I want to I can gear back and rip a mile. Sorry for the long wind....

        This is likely not the same model Nike as the one you refer to, but K J Choi and Cink play (played) Nike SQ head drivers. They don't have problems hitting draws and fades. Both predominately play fades by choice, but I've seen both hit draws on demand, when the hole called for it.
