Adams Golf Idea Black CB2 iron
Last updated:
RRP: £799 (tbc) (set of eight, steel)
LOFTS: 6-iron: 29 degrees, PW: 45 degrees
TECH TALK These irons have progressive offset to help golfers optimise trajectory throughout the set. (The long irons, for example, are designed with slightly more offset to assist in launching the ball higher.) Though the sole widths are consistent, the bounce increases from long to short irons to minimise fat shots.
PLAYER COMMENTS
L “One of the best-looking irons out here. This is a club that will let you become a player.” … “Slam it down on the ground any way you want, and it will sit square.”
M “The sound at impact is solid. It has a lot of feedback. Perfect medium-high ball flight.”
HOT Its black finish is appealing, and the 4-iron through to gap wedge configuration is something other companies should copy. The KBS Tour 90 shafts complement an already outstanding iron.
NOT Adams touts itself as having “The No.1 hybrid in golf,” making the absence of a hybrid option in this set highly curious.
