New Adams Speedline Fast 10 driver

I dont like the Fast 10...it is for sale. All of the 15 or so shots I hit with it are in the center of the club, so it isnt off center hits. I guess I will stick with my Redline...

The Adams Speedline and Ping G15 are both great options. I've hit both extensively on the launch monitors recently. I think, for me, the stock shafts in the G15 don't really work with a 100+ mph swing speed, and the Speedline shafts really work well with my swing. The G15 face feels a little more buttery and probably goes just a tad farther, but I think the Speedline is slightly more forgiving. I think I'd go with the G15 if your swing is under 95-100 mph but the Speedline if you're at or over that clubhead speed range. They're both very long, and I think both feel and sound very nice.

Yeah I'm right at the the 95- 100 swing speed. I'm pretty well set on the G15. I'm going to hit one first, but I really think thats the club for me. I will at some point way down the road get a set of Ping irons also. I like pings fitting support and their quality. Plus their more of a US company than many of the other makers.

I'm thinking of gaming a 10.5 x flex shaft. I can't help but bomb the thing, and it looks pretty good too.

I'm a big fan of this driver, it's on my short list of potential replacements for the current one. Along with the 909D2, Cobra S2, and Taylor Made SuperTri.

I bought the Adams Speedline FAST10 draw driver with that funky lime green Wasabe Adila stiff shaft. I was rolling my eyes when I demoed it... those hokey physics equations labeled on the bottom of the club almost made me overlook it. I hit it, again and again and had great results. No ballooning like with my PING 9 deg Rapture driver (fakey/aftermarket diamana stiff shaft) and it sounded great, felt great and was more accurate from the get go.

I then took it out on my next round and crushed the ball nicely. Then three rounds in a row after that I could not hit it to save my life. Then I got that hokey Orange Whip trainer and took 2 lessons from my local PGA pro in 10 days, practiced and magically I could hit it again. But could also hit my old PING driver also.

So.......... sigh.... I dunno. I know you might want to hear glowing reports. I am sorta able to buy new stuff when I want to so I think I was just bored when I bought it... and had just enough good results to justify it.

Honestly, I like the driver. It's fine. I don't love it, but that's prob because the honeymoon is over with it now. I hit it today at Blackhorse, Monterey course and was extremely pleased with how I was hitting it. But then again I have had another lesson or two on the way.

Probably the lessons and concerted concentrated studious practice sessions alone... focusing on tempo tempo tempo are more of a key here than the new driver.


But hell, I am just figuring this stuff out as I go along. Good luck!

WARNING!!! A friend an I Demoed the Driver from The Golf Warehouse. I wanted to try something out with a draw. We probably hit it 20 times and we went to put the head cover back on and the head came off in my hands. It broke at the bottom of the shaft right where it fits into the head. We took it back to TGW and the manager said that it wasnt the first one that they have had the exact same problem with... He had contacted Adams to see what they were going to do about it because the store has a couple of broken ones just sitting there. Maybe they came from a bad batch or something, I dont know, But i would use caution.
