I hit one last weekend against a few others at golf galaxy.  I can't give a great review, as I don't care for the Voodoo shaft that was in the tester.  The head looked and felt good, shots were nothing out of the ordinary however.

The distance was on-par with the Superfast 3, better shots rolled out to 270 carrying around 250 yards.  I really loved the Cobra S2 3 wood with the Fuji Fit-On Max shaft, it was an awesome club.  This was a great feeling combo for me, great feedback at impact too.

In the Bag: TaylorMade R11 TP - TaylorMade R7 TP TS - Cleveland Halo - TM TP 2009 3-PW - Vokey SM 52 - Vokey SM 60 - Rife Barbados CS - ProV1x

Have you tried higher lofted drivers? You may do very well with an 11 or 12* driver with a shaft fit for you.  It will give you a little more distance than a 3 wood while you gain confidence. Sorry, OT I know, but maybe it is something to think about.

This is a great point.  Don't rule out a higher lofted driver w/ or w/out a shorter shaft.  Drivers are easier to hit than ever, and I think a modern driver is definitely easier to hit off of a tee than a 3 wood.  Try choking down a couple inches so the shaft is about 43" (3 wood length).

Anyone else wonder why adams doesn't make a black fairway wood to match their black drivers and hybrids, irons etc.? This thing would be hot shit if they blacked it out, and it would hide the channels a little better, too.

I agree. I guess they are trying to put attenion on them kind of like TaylorMade's red plate and large cutouts for the screws, but for most enthusiasts I am thinking they would be better hidden. I think a flat black could look really good.

Their black finish doesn't wear worth a poop.

I hit one on a simulator, but it was hard to tell exactly how it "plays." Carry was good. Feel was good. I personally liked it, but Im becoming an Adams guy more and more. Im thinking about replacing my current 3 wood with this new Fast 11. I wont be giving up my PING i15 5 wood though, that thing is money!!

In my Ogio bag.

Titleist 910D2 driver, Adams irons & hybrid, Callaway wedges & a Nike Method putter.

And a yellow ball.

I've got one of the super hybrids, and I actually like that it wears out a little. The sweet spot is getting a bit of wear and it looks kinda cool. I like the blacked out woods (Adams, TM, Titleist, Cobra etc.)

      Yea Club Rat said it. I really enjoyed the Senator and the Judge, then over to Grand National where there a couple good courses plus a fun par 3. The one I do play whenever I visit there is Ross Bridge; something about this course that is just good fun. I hope to play more of the courses in the future, but tomorrow is promised to no one, so hope is the key word. Have Fun, iSank

      Eh. He broke ONE of Tiger's records. Youngest to be ranked #1 in AJGA. It didn't help that Tiger's birthday is in late December, or that Tiger didn't play many AJGA events before he was 15. Did he do any of these things?

      Day 56: 4/19/2024 Okay, even though I'll be teeing it up in a tournament in less than a week. I couldn't find time to get to the range today.  I spent time on the indoor putting mat.  And I spent time in front of the mirror with my 7 iron. Then again later with the driver.  I also thoroughly cleaned all my clubs.
