Nephi's golf driver is a unique weapon in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics

Nephi's golf driver is a unique golf club utilized as a two-handed weapon. Compared to its more common variant, the 9 iron, it is in more pristine condition and appears to be straight, not old and battered.

Special attack

It has a special Fore! attack that does regular damage in V.A.T.S., but at the cost of 4 more action points will always knock down enemies (requires a Melee skill of 50).

Template:Melee special attack table

It is possible to execute Fore! outside of V.A.T.S. (without the required Melee skill of 50 to perform the move) by initiating a power attack (hold attack button) while moving forward.

Durability

Nephi's golf driver can successfully strike about 245 times from full condition before breaking.

Location

  • It can only be obtained by killing Driver Nephi, a Fiend to the southwest of New Vegas.

Notes

  • While in third person, the driver makes the sound of hitting a golf ball while doing a charge attack.
  • The model for this weapon is a driver, rather than a 9 iron despite the game treating it as a unique version of the latter.
  • Will disappear from Nephi's inventory if not picked up after killing him. (tested after 3 in-game days.)
  • If you look at the club in third person, there is an Ace of Spades engraved on its head.
  • This weapon can be used to get the Gun Runners' Arsenal challenge A Slave Obeys.
  • The image on the Pip-Boy for this weapon differs from the image for a 9 iron.
