Square To Target
The Slingshot OSS irons facilitate making solid contact while reducing the penalty for off-center hits. The deep Slingback design and generous offset of these irons redistribute weight deeper in the clubhead. Moving the CG further back makes the clubface easier to square and increases the clubheads MOI (Moment of Inertia) or resistance to twisting during off-center hits. All clubfaces are CNC (Computer Numerically Controlled) milled flat to within .002 and have engraved scoring lines to help ensure consistent and predictable ball flight, distances, and spin rates. These features result in powerful shots that end up closer to their intended target.
Dual Glide Sole
This sole has been engineered to provide the clubhead with smooth flow through the impact zone and deliver crisp, authoritative shots. The wide constant sole width of the Slingshot OSS irons make it easy toget the ball airborne and increases the effective bounce to help prevent digging and fat shots. The beveled trailing edge of the sole reduces turf drag and the risk of thin shots.

Air CG+
The center of gravity (CG) position of the Slingshot OSS irons is by far the lowest and deepest of any Nike iron. This feature launches the ball higher and makes it easier to square the clubface. This is made possible, in part, by a Cryo Steel clubface which is thinner, stronger and faster (ball speed) than conventional stainless steel. The weight savings (29 grams) attributed to this ultra thin face is repositioned further back in the clubheadfs OverSized Slingback design and lower in the wide Dual Glide sole to enhance perimeter weighting and increase the clubheadfs Moment of Inertia (resistance to twisting).
Larger/Hotter Sweet Spot
By moving the center of gravity lower and deeper, the SasQuatch driver achieves a The Slingshot OSS irons incorporate cold-rolled and cryogenically tempered Cryo Steel material in the face that is thinner, stronger (twice the tensile strength of 6-4 titanium), hotter, and more consistent than a cast club face. A robotically controlled laser weld maximizes the Cryo Steel faceplate size to create a large/responsive sweet spot.
3-D Flow Weighting
The Slingshot OSS irons have weight strategically and uniquely distributed in each clubhead within the set. Long irons have weight concentrated low, rearward, and in the heel to facilitate squaring the clubhead and getting the ball airborne. The positioning of the Slingback in the long irons creates a high ball flight for long, softlanding shots. As the club numbers increase throughout the set, the Slingback design incrementally shifts higher and towards the toe to precisely calibrate trajectory and spin rate to prevent shots from ballooning while maintaining the ability to hold greens. 3-D flow weighting is featured in all three Slingshot models.
