Consider the following features when deciding which Adams irons are most suitable for your game.
Adams irons – cavity backs
Cavity back Adams irons have a hollow in the back of the club head. This creates more mass around the perimeter of the club head. Adams irons with cavity backs are therefore less prone to twisting when you miss the sweet spot. This makes Adams irons with cavity backs more forgiving. Many tour professionals now use cavity back irons. Adams irons with deeper cavities are more forgiving but offer less feel to your shots.
Adams irons – blades
Bladed Adams irons have a thinner club head and no cavity in the back. Adams blades provide lots of feel but are less forgiving to hit. Blades are best suited for players with low handicaps.
Adams irons – shafts
Adams irons with graphite shafts are lighter and more suitable for golfers with slower swings or higher handicaps. Golfers with fast swings usually find they are more accurate with steel shafted Adams irons. Most golf professionals with Adams irons play steel shafts. New Adams irons with graphite shafts typically cost euros 100-200 more than a set with steel shafts.
Adams irons - flex
Adams irons with regular flex shafts will be suitable for most golfers. If you have a low handicap or fast swing you may prefer Adams irons with a stiffer shaft. If you have a higher handicap or slower swing you may prefer Adams irons with a more flexible shaft.
Adams irons – lie Adams
irons with a standard lie are suitable for most golfers. If you are a tall golfer or have a more upright swing you may prefer Adams irons with a lie that is 1-2 degrees upright. If you are a short golfer or have a flatter swing you may prefer Adams irons with a lie that is 1-2 degrees flatter.
