Fubuki alpha 60x and head combo had a nice feel.

Also due to camera restrictions they've put in place, I wasn't able to bring the big lens like I normally do. Hopefully they'll ease up on the ropes and I'll be able to get more pics tomorrow! Picked By easyyy , Wednesday at PM.

Picked By easyyy , January 5. Overall, the group average of While we have numbers to quantify the performance of the clubs we test, the Speeline Tech is a bit of an enigma. In our system, where most clubs are separated by tenths of points, he posted an individual score We rarely see a situation where a single tester so dramatically outperforms the field…especially with a driver.

All of this suggests that the Adams Speedline Tech , while perhaps not Hall of Fame material, is a strong performer. The charts below show the individual and group averages black dotted line for each shot our golfers took during our test of the Adams Speedline Tech Driver.

Hovering over any point will give you all the details of that particular shot. You can use the filters on the right-hand side to show and hide individual golfer based on handicap and clubhead speed. At address it appears more rounded than those drivers one might label as traditionally shaped.

By Adams standard, the colors are relatively muted. The biggest aesthetic ding is probably the Matrix shaft. Generally speaking, while nobody really disliked the visual characteristics of the Adams Speedline Tech, nobody was really moved by it either. This is one of the rare cases where our testers gave us a varied and abundant amount of feedback.

My perspective is that the Speedline Tech feels a bit more muted than some other Adams drivers, and really when I say that, I mean the LS. Not bad, not great. When our lower handicap tester Nick talks about the feel, he focuses his thoughts on the weight. He struggled a bit with the club, and attributed much of it to a club that felt a bit light for his tastes. On the flip side, our senior tester actually loved the lighter feel.

That said, certain clubs do certain things better than others. To account for this issue, Adams bakes a little something in the design that supposedly produces better, if not optimum results on mis-hits. During my test, I hit at least two solid heel shots. My senior tester hit a couple as well, and the other guys were good for at least one each. What every guy agreed on is that there was basically zero appreciable distance loss on those shots, and for the most part, spin numbers did not rise dramatically.

The Speedline Tech has the Hottest Heel in golf. While the performance is clearly on par with most anything else out there, none of our testers walked away from our tests lusting after the Speedline Tech. Unlike other recent Adams Drivers the Speedline Tech does not offer shaft length adjustability. The biggest point of distinction is perhaps the triangular-shaped screw. One major plus for the system is how clearly the settings are labeled.

Most of us are familiar-enough with adjustable drivers now that we can work through the settings, but the Adams implementation is so properly simple that a complete novice could sort it out with minimal frustration.

For me, the stock Speedline Tech is clearly not the right setup and the same is true for at least 2 of my testers. One of the things Adams does better than anyone in the industry is offer premium shafts not watered down made-for variants as their stock offering.

We need options, not because we want them, but because they make all the difference in the world. Yes, it certainly appears the Speedline Tech, based on available stock specs, is designed for a specific market segment, but the lack of a readily available secondary stock zero upcharge, available off-the rack shaft option is a huge issue.

My Fast11 would usually carry a good and roll out to about with a decent kick. I was playing it with a regular shaft and in coversaiton witht he Adams staff it became clear that with a SS of , stiff or maybe even x-stiff would be more my style. I think this driver will do very well.

Early indications are it provides the every-day golfer a big boost in distance. It is so easy to hit, much more consistent than the other 2 and no messing changing the shaft position.

The only time you will need to change the shaft position is if you get into handicap single figures, by that time you will probably need to change your club anyway as it will be obsolete. I demoed the Speedline driver with a It took one round and a trip to the driving range to figure out how to square it up, but when I did it was very good, beating the R7. I particularly like the quiet, solid sound compared to the R7 and most other drivers these days.

Like any club, it comes down to custom fitting and playing a bit of mix and match between the loft of the head, and the characteristics of the shaft. They are the real deal, plus Adams offers 2 different RIP shafts for this driver that are both in the gram range. The Gamma orange eyes is like a mid-high launch shaft. The Alpha red eyes is a low, low-mid launch shaft with torque somewhere around 2. So depending on the type of shaft you usually use, you could go for an Alpha, Gamma, or any other custom shaft.

I purchased this driver — aplha stiff. Thought the shaft was horrible — way to whippy. Put in the new Fuji Motore Speeder — the club is now amazing! Definitely getting more yards off the tee! We are aware of the rebates, but since they come and go sometimes quickly , when we do our testing and collect our feedback, we have to base our questions on the retail price at the time. Your point is valid, but at the same time, my thinking is, rather than play these rebate and gift card games, manufacturers should price the clubs appropriately from day 1.

Good point, they are rebates and not the real price I guess. IMHO Adams has really been stepping up their game. I just started playing their CB1 irons and at this moment cannot imagine hitting anything else feel is incredible. Hmmmm, maybe flowers and perhaps wine and dine the wife will help my cause when I bring up the subject???

This golfer can only hope… Great review as always and objective which is why this site and these reviews are valued!!! Thanks again. I just have a general comment. Fiirst of all thank you for your most informative reviews. I absolutely love them. I also want to say thank you very much!

I have been reading your reviews for a while now and purchased nothing new because I loved the clubs in my bag. I have kzg muscleback irons p-6, nickent 3 dx ironwood hybrids in I am a plus handicap golfer.

Well, I broke the face of my tour issue driver in a tourney hitting it from the rough, there was a rock out of sight and it punched a hole in the face, stupid I know. I paired it with the matrix ozik tp 6 hd stiff shaft. I hit my r9 tp about to but had a hook of about 25 yards at times which was troubling.

The Adams LS, my first ever Adams club, is dead strait as your review lead me to expect. I hit it about the same I may have gained about 5 yards with the cold it is hard to say for sure. I can hit about a yard draw or fade with it. The looks, sound and feel are top teer. I love and curse you because now I am thinking about getting fitted for the Miura irons based on how much you have raved about them.

I always told myself my kzg irons were as good as they are but I also considered Mizuno clubs to be the equal of KZG. Since you have Mizuno clubs and feel that the Miura clubs are much better I am tempted now… Bastard! Thanks for such a great review sight.

I would donate but now I am saving up for the new irons… I will help support you after I get them. Let me know how much you like tham when you have had the chance to put a few rounds on them. I too have won a few club championships.

I appreciate you taking the time to come back to the site and leave your comment Dan. And glad to hear the LS is working so well for you. But both make a top-notch set of sticks. I have several rounds with the ls already and it will be a keeper. Have you played both kzg and miura? If yes, what difference would you say there is? I have been told that all three brands are forged in the same factory, is that true, and if so what would make the significant differences?

I chose two of the same kzg irons with different finishes and the mizuno mp Since I like two of the same club I went with them. I have a question. Why do you tape the face and sole.? Tape slows the spin rate. Less spin means less slice and hooking effects.

Tapes slows spin rate, so on the higher lauched drives would get you more distance. Makes the driver several swing points heavier. Why do you about how much it weighs coming from the OEM? Your testing procedures are flawed do to the tape. Are you testing the driver or you trying to resell the driver? Get rid of the tape and give out true readings.

Hitting off a mat ,all you should have to worry about are sky marks. Sky marking a driver is something only a hack would do. Magoo — As it states in the review, we tape the crown and the sole , not the face. Since our testers come from a range of handicaps, and most will admit that bad swings can happen to anyone, we protect the clubs to ensure that they look the same for all of our testers. As far as swing weight goes, we check swing weight prior to taping the clubs, so our measurements reflect how the club was shipped from the manufacturer.

The tape itself ads about 2 swing weights the difference between D3 and D5 , which most knowledgeable golfers will tell you is nearly imperceptible. The notion that a sky mark is something only a hack might do is funny too. My guess is that you have probably put a sky mark or two on a club in your lifetime.

In any case, if you are ever in Nashville let me know so I can bring my sky mark driver over and play you for some skins. I currently own th ls. I average with it. Thanks for a objective review. Been waiting for someone to do a good review. I had the LS and I felt like I lost distance and could not hit it straight compared to my TM r7 limited although I think the shaft was not stiff enough for me, to be fair. Looking forward to hitting this one soon. Recognizing this awesome review is of a Gamma shaft model, could you confirm that my understanding is correct?

RIP 60 Wood R 3. Low-Mid S 2. Low-Mid X 2. RIP 70 Wood R 3. Based on the above, you would be correct. What is the comparison to the Insight d? Length has changed in this model which will surely affect distance…….. Unsure if I should upgrade, any suggestions apart from testing as left handed Adams equipment in Australia is like water in the sahara…… Any help would be much appreciated. Hard to give exact apples to apples comparison since our new review system came after the D…and I don;t want to steer you the wrong way.

But if you get a chance to test this driver I would…it scored higher then any other driver we have tested to date with the new system. But that D was a great driver. If so how does it stack up against the competition? Unfortunately Adams only sent us the one driver for testing this time around. I have had both drivers and I can tell you that the D is probably slightly longer in terms of distance, and has better sound.

In terms of forgiveness the blows the D away. With its open face, the D is punishing from a forgiveness standpoint, and also very ugly. I would take a over my old D any day of the week, if I was a tour player I would play the D. I would agree with your response P-Gunna in regards to accuracy for sure. The D was very long but not as accurate. Thanks for your input. What else could longer refer to but distance? We have a winner! I have the and absolutely love it.

I bought it for looks and kept it for performance. I find it to be very unpleasant to look at, inspiring anything but confidence from its overly aggressive, unauthentic appearance. Number 1, from a PGA visability standpoint, Adams has a nice staff assembled. Many of the tour pros have bag deals that do not include anything in the bag.

Furthermore, Adams has the most widely played that means 1 hybrids on tour. The same cannot be said for Callaway, Taylor Made, or Nike. A well struck ball off of these is unbelievable. Their hybrids need no endorsement from me. Bottom line, it was a great review. I play to a handicap of 4 a club that is a past host of the U. Nuff said. Thanks Matt, though my emotions got the best of me….

When testing irons I found the Adams to be one of the better irons along with Wilson Staffs. I ended up buying Taylormade mcs only because they are an amazing set of irons but after hitting their irons, I am now very tempted to invest in their other clubs woods and hybrids.

Thanks for your comments and opioids Richard. GREAT answer. Then a young pro put me on a machine, indoors, then suggested we go to an outdoor range. I had three drivers, none of which I was happy with. Finally, I started hitting shot after shot dead straight at my target, and obviously longer than my own clubs.

Yes, it was an Adams LS, and I have one on order. I tend to try most of the new drivers that come out each year. I have to honestly say that the LS is the best head of the bunch and the stock RIP 60X shaft is a great match for it. The combination of distance, forgiveness, and accuracy the LS gives just cannot be beaten in my opinion. If you give this driver a fair test, you will want to buy it! Seems silly to think only Calloway, Taylor M, Nike and the other golf marketing hogs are the only ones that make a good club.
