Anyone here play last years Speedline F11 or F11 Ti fairway woods? I am in the market for some new fairway woods. I went to Dick's SG last week and hit the RBZ 3 woods and Adams Speedline 11 3 wood in the simulator, I have to say that the Adams felt pretty good compared to the RBZ. So I demoed the RBZ 5 wood last friday at a local course and liked it alot. But was unable to demo the Adams since they did not carry it.  DSG's and Edwin Watts have the Adams on sale for $99 as compared to the RBZ for $229. Just wanting some opinions from anyone on how you like them. Easy to hit of the deck or tee? Other fairway recommendations?

I have the Adams F11 Ti fairway wood. Did not compare it to any other fairway wood before buying so I cannot help with the comparison you are looking for, I previously owned an adams F10 and loved it off the tee and off the deck but wanted more distance so I went for the adams and the price was $99 so it was a win win for me IMHO. It takes a little getting used to hitting the larger head off the deck but I am pleased with its performance.

Recently switched from a Nike Sumo fairway wood, to the Adams F11 Ti (3W).  At least for me, WOW.  The reviews of the thing having a hot face are not exaggerated.  Stock Aldila shaft is just fine for me.  Great off the tee (i hit it almost as long as my driver if the fairway isn't wet), and I have no problems hitting it from the fairway either.

Based on the deals, i also picked up an Adams 5W, although I went with the Speedline LP instead of another F11, as i'm a low-ball hitter; i found the LP definitely launches higher than prior 5W's with the same loft i've had, and the face is still quite hot.  Thinking of moving to an LP 3W also...

So my two cents would not to be to waste your money on an RBZ, when you could get two Adams instead for the same price!

I've hit the F11 Ti and own 2 F11 steel Fairway woods. The Ti model is a great head, very long club...it just didn't fit my gaps (too long). So I opted for the steel head and it fits perfectly for me. Great feeling club, easy off the tee and turf, and pretty forgiving. Only downside for me was the stock VooDoo shaft. While it felt good, it launched too high and with too much spin for me. I put a Harrison Saga in my 3 wood and love the club, working on finding a new shaft for my 5 wood at the moment. Plus, they can both be found new for under $100 which is a steal for such a great club.

    • The first issue Erik spoke about is something we worked on for my swing during both GEARS sessions. GEARS was showing my pelvis center moving towards the ball during the back swing. I wasn’t the 4” guy though! This forced me to correct on the downswing to give myself space. My hip rotation was to high as well. We corrected it by first getting the weight off my heels in my stance and getting my posture correct. Then the feel was shifting back into my right hip at a 45 degree angle. This kept my pelvis center from moving towards the ball at the start of the backswing. I also didn’t sway back as much as I felt I did because of the angle I was shifting. Feel Ain’t Real. The cool thing about GEARS is as you work on something you can see the exact (Real) change happening. On video, it is much harder to spot this issue because of the 2D nature of filming. But I know what to look for now. Sadly, I was hurt all last year and most of this year so I really haven’t been able to work on it much. I did do a lot of backswing work though.
