+1 feels like this is them trying to capitalize on the absence of Adams, and creating something similar for the Adams-diehards to move on to

Same guy designing them now...so expect some similarities. Certainly don't look like Adams Blue or Red so much.. A12Pro-ish to me!! Which is a good thing!!

They look really solid in person... Like everyone has said.. a very Adams like look at address... Has been missed the past few seasons.

Meh, Whaddaya know bout it?!?!

what's going on my man?

I've given them a test run. This club delivers exactly what Cally says......a hybrid without draw bias and flights more like an iron. Great club but 10+ handicappers probably need to look at the XR instead.

Very nice shape. Reincarnation of the 9031 or like someone said, the A12 Pro.

Good looking club, wish I still had my VIP account, they would have already been pre-ordered. But that's what working for another OEM will do for you....

An XR in 19 and Apex in 23 should be a perfect combination to replace the 5-wood and 4-iron. Looking forward to it!

Exactly...a Callaway 9031....

That looks identical to the pro mini without the slot on top!

Also curious about this

Still gaming 9031 and A12 pro. This definitely looks like the A12.

I got a 3i (20 degree) and love it so far, but have only played one round. As a guy that often battles more a hook than a slice, I love that it isn't a hook machine like so many hybrids. I also like the flight of the ball being more iron like. Personal preference I know, but so far at least I'm a fan.

Not distance wise in the same lofts...iron like distances...XR Pro's will be longer for sure.

I swear - my first reaction upon seeing the pictures was picturing a call coming into the CEO of Callaway's office. "Sir? Barney Adams' attorney is on line one!"

And I have in my bag (and very much like) Callaway fairway woods and Adams hybrids.

Looks like an Adams hybrid.

I feel like preordering on looks alone. Loved my Idea Pros, like the X2 Pro performance. It's like a match made in golf heaven.

P. S. Chip Brewer, CEO of Callaway Golf, was the former CEO of Adams Golf. Discovrr says the designer came over from Adams. There are no coincidences. This should be a winner!

These are fantastic hybrids. I have the 2 and the 3 with the Recoil 780 hybrid shaft. They feel fantastic, and are incredibly easy to hit.

I came from the X2 Hot hybrid that I had bent to square, and the 2 and the 3 are tremendous. Out of thick, deep rough, these hybrids just glide right through it and pop the ball out. They are incredibly straight too... found that even though they might look compact, they are super easy to hit.

They really are fantastic long iron replacements.... I even replaced my Apex 4-iron with the no.3 (choke down), and found it be way easier to hit than my 4-iron... which is usually my money club.

The no. 2 hits some BULLETS off the tee. I hit the no.2 out of the thick rough and off of a tight lie, and super easy to hit. WAY easier to hit than the comparable long iron...

Oh... and NO hooks!! Seriously. I'm so happy to say that.. because I was fighting a bit of the hooks with my X2 Hot. But not with these... Oh man... point and shoot.

That's Adams shame.

.370 tip on these?

when I saw the teaser pic I was like hmm adams is putting out new hybrids.

If they perform like my adams they will be a definite winner. Might finally be something to knock them out. Been in the bag for about 2 1/2 years now.

Looks like the same weights used on the 814,815 Big Bertha Drivers.........Nice, Very Nice.
