Has anyone had any experience with the Adams A3 Hybrid?

Do you guys like it? Pros/Cons?

If not, is there a similar hybrid within that price range (~110$) that you have used and liked?

Anything helps!
Thanks!

I haven't hit any of the Adams A3 but for $110 price range, you have a lot of options. I personally like the Adams Idea Pro Gold.

I have the entire iron set of the A3 series. 6-PW are irons; 3, 4 and 5 are hybrids. It took awhile to hit them right, but now that I have sort of figured it out I really like them. Off the deck I can hit the 5h about 200, the 4h about 210 and the 3h around 220.

I still have problems topping the damn ball with these from time to time. I think it happens when I have the ball back in my stance too far. But, when you get the ball in the sweet spot they really take off. Even the regular irons hit farther than I am used to. Maybe they have a different loft. But the other night I hit the 6i 210 off the tee (verified by GPS). I still have no idea how it went that far.

I'd definitely recommend them. You can buy the entire iron set for $300 these days, so paying $110 or whatever is a bit much. You can get them on ebay for about 70 bucks each.

I ordered the entire set a year or so ago. I got the 3h & 4h and 5-pw. I could not hit the hybrids consistently at all, I don't know if the prolaunch red shafts work in the hybrids. For what it's worth, I play the Prolaunch red in my driver and 3w and love them dearly. I think you need a higher launching shaft in the hybrids, however. Just my experience.

I picked up an A3 from Dick's last week for around $60. After hitting it on the range three times and play testing it on Tuesday I'm not sure how I ever lived without it. It's got a fantastic shaft and it's so easy to hit it's stupid. It's also 15 yards longer than my 3i ever dreamed of being.

I have the A3 3i and 4i, and for me they are much easier to hit consistently than regular 3 & 4 irons. You should definitely be able to find them for under $100 new - mine were $90 at Dick's a few months ago.

I really like my callaway x hybrids. After playing a few rounds with them, I like them much better than my Nike sq2 hybrid. They should be in your price range

I just got the A3 iron set with a 3,4,5 Hybrid and 6-PW. I had played a Callaway X hybrid before which was an absolute nightmare to hit compared to the Adams. The square shape makes it extremely easy to get up in the air. I got the entire iron set for $299 on sale. So considering that most of these hybrids go for $80-110 retail that was a heck of a deal. They are a little tough to hit out of deep deep rough though. I would pick up a used one (they are dirt cheap at golf galaxy) and try them out.

How did you hit the A3OS? Was it easy to hit?

It was extremely easy to hit. I get the ball up in the air with height of a seven iron and the distance of a 3 iron. I highly recommend this club.

I played a round the other day and hybrids were hitting missles dead straight. The 3H was going 200+ with a 3/4 swing. They're a little hard to hit out of tall grass or thick rough they don't cut through that well.

Try out the Adams Idea Pro (Gold), I should be getting mine tomorrow in the mail. Other options are Ping G10, TM Burner Rescue, and Nickent 3DX. Also, I haven't hit these but heard great stuff about

: Bobby Jones, Wilson Fybrid,and Cobra Bafflers. The Nickent and Wilson hybrids are very affordable so check those out.

      Ovvio Shafts (from GEARS)

      Jesus, when he keeps saying scissoring moment, ugh that is a horrible sounding phrase. Just makes me cringe. It doesn't help my mind went to Mr. Garrison from South Park. 🤣 If you know you know.  I think for the most part, golf shaft companies have gotten this figured out. They ask questions like, what tempo do you swing at. The whole scissor terminology sounds like they want to stand out a bit.  Yea, golfers load the golf shaft differently, and different bend profiles can help out. I do think swing speed matters as well. You probably want a golf shaft with lower torque if you swing faster.

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Played 9 holes, shot a 39.  Kind of got around. Everything between the trees, so in play. Short game was rusty. Got to get back on that. Greens were stupidly slow because they got a lot of rain yesterday and probably couldn't cut them down. Usually in the summer they are firm and pretty fast for how sloped they are. Got to work on face to path a bit.
