Adams Golf CB2 irons

Hey guys,

I just wanted to express how happy I am with my new purchase of the Adams CB2 forged irons. I got them about two weeks ago, and Im in love with them!!! These are the sickest and best feeling clubs ive ever played. Adams has really broken the mold on these clubs. The forged iron feel on these cubs is amazing! I really feel like I can feel the ball being compressed with these clubs, and if you can believe it, I think ive picked up about 10 yards distance with these clubs. Paired with some great lessons of course...

About 2 months ago I bought the new Taylormade R9 TP irons. I hit them a few times in the store before ordering them, and I thought I liked them, but once I got them out on the course I didn't like them. The feel was plain and felt very "solid" for lack of a better term. I felt as if I was striking a rock every time I hit the ball with them. I had liked the Adams clubs before, but I went Taylormade for some reason, even though ive always been against their over hyped products.

As ive matured as a golfer I have stopped going for the hype and what the magazines say are the best. Instead Im going for feel and what I hit the best. And now my bag is a mixture of clubs and brands rather than what matches my hat.

This new set of Adams CB2 irons are fantastic, and Im playing better than I ever have before.

So far so good. Im trying really hard to take great care of these because of the black finish. And its really hard to remember not to grab my wire brush to clean them though. Haha, I dont want to prematurely rub the finish off. However the black finish is great for checking your impact spot on the face. The ball seems to leave a mark when you hit it. It rubs right off, of course, but its actually kind of nice to be able to check and make sure Im hitting it off the middle of the club face.

Glad you like them as well.  I'm also happy that Adams kept the A4 forged idea going.  It is a more forgiving forged iron with a little lower center of gravity for a higher launch.

 

Have fun with them.

I actually considered buying some A4's, and I almost pulled the trigger on them, but when I found out I could get a brand new set of CB2's (the Adams area rep plays at my club) for less than the price of some used A4's I couldn't resist!

Im probably going to buy some A7 hybrids next... I didn't like the "pro black" hybrids unfortunately.

And for all you guys wanting to "game" one, try what I did... Go to your local golf shop and see if they have demos for sale. I did this and it really helped out. I just bought 6 different 6 irons from the clubs I thought I was interested in, and every time I played I would change one out to see how it did. I also took them all to the range a few times to see how they felt, ball flight, and distance. Thats really how I decided on the Adams club. All the Adams clubs (A4's, A7's, CB1&2's) I tried were nice, but only one felt like magic for me.
