Adams Golf

Recommended Posts

It is no secret that Adams went out of business within the past few years, and their clubs are being sold on the secondary market very frequently (some new and some used). How would you assess the quality of Adams clubs? Whether it would be irons, drivers, fairway woods, hybrids. Are they good quality and are they being sold for a steal amount on some websites? I have seen iron sets less than $200, and hybrids, fairways and drivers each under $50.

I had 3 sets of Adams before the PXG's and would put them up against any club manufacturer.

 

Including PXG, thought I would get that in before all the "haters" jump in!!!!!!!!

I would also agree that the quality of Adams equipment is top notch. I own our have owned the XTD Tour A irons (current gamers and favorite irons of all time), XTD Ti hybrids, Super Speedline LS fairway woods, XTD driver, Red hybrids, and Tight Lies Fairway woods. It is great that they are so cheap now, it makes hoing much easier.

I still have a bunch of Adams stuff. Still have a Pro Mini in the bag.

 

They had some of the best gear of the times, 9015d, BTY's, A4's, Pro Golds, Super LS, 9064, 9032, CMB, A12 Pro.....the list goes on and on.

 

I paid full price for Adams back in the day and was happy with my purchase, even better now that it is a deal!

I've tried to beat my Adams XTD forged irons for almost 2 years now. They're awesome!!!

 

A lot of the last year's stuff from Adams was made with some input from Taylormade or Taylormade is now making a variation of the old Adams stuff. Twist face was an Adams thing first for example.

Option 1
Ping G400 LST 8.5 Tour-X
Callaway Big Bertha 816 Alpha 16 AD-DI 8x black
Nike VR Pro 3 hybrid project x 6.0
Adams XTD Forged 4-PW Fujikura MCI 120S
Adams MB2 GW
Callaway Mac Daddy Forged 60
Toulon Garage Atlanta Black Pearl
Ping 4 Series Tour Edition White/ Bridgestone 2014 Tour Bag

Option 2
Taylormade 2016 M1 10.5 Whiteboard Flowerband 7x
16 Taylormade M1 5 wood AD-TP 7s
Ping Anser 20 stock stiff
Taylormade 2016 M2 Tour XP105 stiff
Cleveland RTX 2.0 52 deg raw
Titleist Vokey Prototype 58 T Grind
Carbon Ringo Raw Whisky

I am actually debating whether to return to XTD Tours...Ebay site has them 229 new with TT DG AMT....I had a set previously that had some quality control issues but I might be able to look past that lol.

 

Do it! The two sets that I have owned have not had the copper issue that others have experienced. Maybe I have just been lucky.

Played some of my best golf with adams CB2 irons. Just picked up a set of CMB heads to build and still bag a Pro VST 17* hybrid that launches straight missiles

 

LONG LIVE ADAMS GOLF!

Love my XTD ti hybrids. Quality on par with any of the OEM's.

 

The 3 wood is one of the most criminally underrated clubs of all time. Long, straight, and looks great. An M1 hybrid finally kicked my KTI ti 2-hybrid out fo the bag about a month ago, but I'm not selling it because I know it'll be back in the bag at some point.

I have some as a backup set for guests that come play. Mine have copper showing through. IMO I would go for the forged over these again.

I just found a set of new un-shafted Pro Gold Tour heads 3-pw left over and collecting dust since 2008. I had them built up with Steelfibers and they promptly kicked my old Mizunos straight out of the bag. My favorite irons ever. I have had a speedline 3 wood in the bag for so long I have no idea how old it is. Never found anything better.

Im starting to look around for some heads to build for my son who just outgrew his AP1s.

The XTD Forged, 4-7, were the FIRST hollow irons. Tech from 2014. The 8-L are traditional forged.

 

Hollow heads, mixed complete sets, all from 5 years ago. That is just the irons.

 

TM stole the wood flex technology, Adams said "see you in court" and an out of court settlement occurred.

 

Current M3 and M4 "Hammerhead" tech is exactly like in the XTD woods. Titanium hybrids and fairways, with the last fw's with the "ghosted" crown. That hid the upper slot which is what everybody does today.

 

Lastly, real shafts, no "made for".

 

Any questions?
