Comparing 5 irons was night and day. The guy who can't hit a players club to save his life will love the CB3. My Cally's went on Craigslist as soon as I got home from the range Is anybody out there still playing the CB2's? I just bought a used set after reading all these raving posts about CB2's. I've wanted to try a forged cavity back iron and thought the CB2's would be a good used option to start with. Again just wondering if anybody is still playing CB2's and how do they compare to newer forged cavity back sets?
Would appreciate any thoughts from golfers out there. I Had a set for a long time, and while they're not "distance" irons, they are a very good forged CB. Playing Cobra Forged tec black now and I could play the Adams again, no problem. Very good Irons. Sole grind works great for me. I have a set of CB3's with steel fiber stiff that I would be willing to part with if you're interested. You can PM me.

Adams has been at the forefront of game improvement. With new owners I hope that that does not change! I would like to see Adams continue to focus on the better player handicap. Taylormade can provide equipment for the hackers and Adams can cater to the more accomplished golfer. It seems as they have been moving that way the last couple years anyways. These are great looking irons. Def look less GI than most. Hopefully Adams is able to stick around and not just get assimilated.
Continue to evlove their wonderful hybirds. Choose a new paint for their driver. I play DGs stiff shafts. Excellent review! I play the Adams CB2s now and hope with the new TaylorMade aquisition, Adams keeps pumping out solid irons, hybrids, and woods.
Adams has the best iron line up, top to bottom, in the business. The CB3 sounds like it fills a niche the market has not filled to date- a GI iron without the shovelish looks. Adams Golf has always been a leader in GI clubs. I hope Taylor made respects that heritage and keeps hands off production and research and development. I would like to see Adams offer different lie and length options within their iron sets and not tie you to one option for your entire set.
Adams makes a nice looking, good performing iron. I would like to see Adams continue to compete in the same markets they have. I play the CB1s and absolutely love them. I play Stiff shafts. Presently they do not have a fitting cart available at Demo Days where you can swap out heads shafts etc to get fit. I would love to see Adams brand themselves , better , Logos on hats etc..
The product is second to none , but are not marketed to match. The fast 12 line is long and accuate but needs an edrenalin rush to it , similar to rocket balls , Adams is no longer your granparents clubs!! I have been saving up for a set of these for the past few weeks.
They have just the right combination of: 1. Regular Flex and 2 Degrees up if you please. What I wish to see in the future are some high end wedges that offer several options of lofts and bounce angles that would look great and perform at the legal limit of the USGA regulations.
Thanks Adams for thinking of Every level of player in this great game. I love the feel of the Adams irons. Well balanced, strong grips. Allows for a real comfortable swing with little effort and are very forgiving! Not much to change on the club itself, maybe just on the marketing side.
I love their hybrids. I use a reg. Would love to win this set of irons. Would really like to see what they have for us lefties. This set sounds promising and as I am beginning to get the urge for replacing my irons, winning this set could be a good solution. Certainly a tough question given the current situation.
There seems to be a consensus that Adams will at some point stop designing clubs for mid-low handicappers and focus solely on GI equipment. However, if they have the freedom to do so, i would love to see those damascus steel putters in stores, and a low spin driver from them with more lie adjustability the dfs and f12ls can only be adjusted upright. I have stiff shafts in my current set. The future of Adams golf is cemented in the game as one of the most innovative brands on tour along with the aquasition of YES golf they now offer a complete package for any golfer.
In my humble opinion the future is big and bright. I would not call the MB2 a senior set of irons by any means or any of there clubs i think people are missing the point all this shows is that Adams can adapt a set of clubs to anyones game without fault.
Adams forged clubs is a great entry for those players who play forged irons. I look forward to trying them. I currently play Bridgestone J36 in a Project X 5.
I play x-stiff. I have previously owned a set of A7 Adams irons. I did not like the fact that they only had hybrids for the long irons. Little bid of players club with little forgiveness in a great looking package. Since Taylormade bought Adams, I would like to see them market their products more effectively. Show your technology to the masses like the Rocketballz. Slot tech all the way!!!!!!!! Great looking and feeling irons.
Keep up the good work , Barney! I think Adams is on the right track in that they offer a wide range of solutions for a wide range of golfers. This is not easy but they are on track. The one thing I would like from Adams Golf are more demo days in Canada. These would be appreciated during the golf season. There is a very different feel hitting balls on a range versus hitting into a screen.
Adams should customize their adverts to include and encourage proper fittings from Adams trained golf shops.
This would need to be confirmed at a properly trained Adams Golf Fitter. Also, stamping lofts on the clubs would be beneficial as there no longer seems to be a standard loft for clubs amoung manufacturers…stick it close! OK, this week I turn the big 65! A set of these Adams would sure be appreciated! I think Adams is always just a little different from the Bigger Boys, and should not try to emulate them in looks or anything else.
If they had the advertising budgets, they would probably be a bigger player, but they also have to watch out that they do not become too closely associated with older players.
Just keep doing what you are doing,great clubs,I play reg flex. I have the old Fast10 driver and a hybrid. Their niche? I would like Adams to continue offering quality tour-inspired products as well as clubs that my hadicap father can play. Also — extend the Ryan Moore and Kenny P contracts through Love the site, most in depth reviews anywhere.
Just got the Adams fast12ls and love it. Love the look of the clubs would like to see a traditional finish option as well. I play regular flex steel shafts. Great to see a nice forged blade with the kbs option How about some nice forged wedges with stiff shaft options and sole options.
Keep-up the great resource you are providing! This site has helped me find great equipment that will fit in my price range while performing just as good if not better than a heavily marketed brand. I recently traded in a set of TM Burner 2. Truth be told, I wanted them from the start but was sucked in by the added distance due to the decreased loft on the TM B 2.
Even though I was returning to the game of golf after 8 years of temporary insanity I wanted the softer feel, consistent distance, and feedback on off center hits that the TM B 2. I would also like to see different shaft and grip options offered to the average consumer. Stiff shafts are my modus operandi. Great Review, thanks. These irons have a clean simple design without too many colors.
My suggestion is: simpler and less is best, regarding club appeal. For me, Adams innovation and cutting edge products look great and perform great. Thank you Adams Golf. I like verry much Adams Golf clubs and i dont know why! Unfortune for this brand it doesnt spend the money to sponsored few top rank players and without this marketing strategy it failed. I hope the knew owners, Taylor Made, will made a good job and this amazing brand — Adams — will not have the faith of Ben Hogan with Callaway.
I play with regular shaft in my irons. I play regular flex TaylorMade irons. I played with my friends Adams and loved them. It let me dial into to the handicap range that I am interested in to see the experience of people with similar skill level. It seems like there are a lot of OEMs out there focusing on high-handicappers or low-handicappers with not so much choice for the mid-handicappers.
I generally play R-Flex steel shafts in my irons. Currently been gaming the Adams A4 irons for a few seasons and loving it. I would prefer Adams and all other makers allow the customer to pick a grip type rather than having to settle for a stock application. I know what I like and hate to have to add a hundred and half to change the grips out. Maybe I have just come to expect better than middle-of-the-pack performance from Adams.
The clubs look great, GI or not. And kudos to Adams for continuing to develop and build quality products. Stiff flex, please. I would like to see Adams keep their forgiveness in their hybrids and enhance that a bit more in their irons.
I think their partnership with Taylor Made will only help to grow the brand. The old perception that Adams was for senior players and 30 plus handicappers is slowly being put to rest. I would like to see what Adams could do about designing putters as well.
Great look! Simple lines and thinnner sole profile but good weight behind the face will equal a forgiving , high launching but very workable iron. As far as what I would love to see from Adams is a tour caliber fitting and building of clubs. Be able to go out to Texas and get fit by the fitters who fit and build for the tour.
I play Adams clubs from 2-PW, hybrids, fwys and driver and my play could benefit from Tour caliber attention from Adams. To be fit at the highest level could do worlds of help to my game. I could be farther along than I am now if I would of had Tour fitters dialIng in every club. Handpicked and weighed heads at time of build. Just give us the treatment your tour guys get. Of course for a price. You will have players beating down your door.
Thanks for another great club, the CB3 takes every cake! Great Job!! I feel like Adams started getting a little cheap and geared toward new players or low quality players. This is probably not the case, but for some reason that was my preception as well as the perception of many of the other guys I play with.
But with the look and description of these irons, it seems they are moving in a much different direction than what i normally associate with Adams golf. Beautiful irons that perform well, what more could you ask for.
Sign me up. I would like to see Adams spend a little more money on advertising and marketing. They have great clubs, they just need to get them out there.
Although with the Taylormade acquisition, who knows. I play stiff. I like the adams hy-breads and drivers. I would like to see different color finishes. I do like Chrome and white. The white to me is so much easier to align the ball up against. I use stiff shaft in my irons. Adams has always been a leader in fairway woods. I would love to see some new fairway woods to compete with Taylormade. I use a stiff, project X 5. Cant wait ti try them out. Looks like a user friendly set of irons… by the way if i am picked reg irons please..
I play a regular flex, steel shaft. Much too strong, otherwise just gorgeous! Would love to see more regular tour pros promoting the product as it is a great product for all ages. Regular Project X shafts in the irons.
I am curious enough to look a little deeper and consider them an option to the Titleist AP2 I was considering and suggest by my instructor.
I like the KBS shaft otion but the only color is gray on gray is not going to win anyone over. Lovely looking clubs. Are Adams going to add a SW to range. Would love to own these.
These irons looks fantastic. I have always been impressed with the features and game improvement of Adams Golf. We have a Demo day at our club next week and Adams will be there. These Adams look like something I would like to play. Thanks for the opportunity to provide feedback to Adams!
I have a set of Adams a30s irons and I like them very much. The clubs have made an improvement in my game. Adams needs to keep addressing the game-improvement iron category, where most of us reside. These sound like the perfect clubs for the working man who is also a golfer.
Adams seems to understand the one practice, one play a week guy. I will take mine with regular shafts. Love the reviews on this. But I want to hit it myself of course. Living in Asia, Adams is not very big. Getting them for free would be nice. I presently play Taylormade irons, but have been interested and intrigued by Adams irons for some time now. I presently play regular graphite shafts in my irons.
Sometimes I wonder if I need an even softer shaft as I am 72 years old and do not possess the swing speed I once did. For the future of Adams, I would really like to see more of their wedge line up. The irons and woods are fantastic, and their forged offerings always feel amazing. I would like to at least be able to find them in a store. Great review on the Adams CB3 irons. I would like to see Adams offer them in a satin or chrome finish.
Darker finishes tend to show wear quickly. Would love to play them! Regular shafts please. As far as the contest goes, I agree with everyone else. I love where Adams is at right now with their clubs, and if they do anything, they need to market their products better. I hope they stay good and keep the Adams name running strong. Just in case I somehow win this contest, I would want my irons with a stiff shaft. As far as the review goes, I have to admit that I love the look of the club.
As you golfers who have been active on the forum lately, you know that that has been happening me a lot. I am a little surprised by the short game-performance, but as you mentioned, new testers and off-days probably contributed to that. The fact that the LOP was so high shocks me even more. Overall, it looks like a great club. Would love to see a sand wedge included in the set. Beautiful looking clubs.
I play normally regular flex graphite. I would love to see Adams continue to expand and m. The MB irons are awesome and dont get the credit they deserve.. I play Adams driver and fairway clubs, senior flex, and really like them. I would like to see Adams maintain the quality and standards, I dont want Adams to pump out product after product just to sell the next big thing, I want quality of quantity.
I like the pentagons on the back. Currently playing the A4 forged iron and ls driver models in stiff from a few years back. I would like to see Adams continue to push their game improvement irons and keep doing the kind of research that leads to real inovations for all golfers. These irons look amazing. I like the way these Adams Irons look!
If they see this club sit behind the ball their going to love it… For a game improving club their awesome! Love the Adams clubs. I own set of the A7 irons…great! One suggestion might be to incorporate Winn grips on the new sets…or at least more options of various grips to be installed when ordering the clubs. Great looking irons! Would love to get my own.
I think their sticks are fantastic and full of technology. Currently play stiff shafts in my irons, but swing speed falls right on the line of stiff and regular. I loved my cb2s. Adams has great looking irons. I play stiff fujikura gram grpahite shaft. Would like to see Adams tech compete with the Tour Edge Bazooka concept. I play senior A flex in irons and woods.
I really like the new look on Adams irons. For those with a low handicap it is nice to see an iron with less offset. The dark finish is also a great bonus for reducing glare. I enjoy the innovations in technology that Adams brings to golf clubs. I am still playing a stiff or firm flex shaft. I also love the black irons matched the the black kbs shafts.
I love Adams offerings. I play XS in my irons. I would love to see a clasic, conservative, clean cavity back set of irons without any non-metal parts on the club head. Great review. I have a set of Adams regular flex about three seasons old. Maybe time to upgrade. I would like to set a review of their hybrids in the future.
I have been waiting for this review for some time. I love what Adams is doing! Nothing has touched my Adams ls yet! Just hits bombs. I hope they change the silver top though with their new drivers, not a fan of looking down at that. Thanks for the opportunity to win and awesome set of irons!!!! Thanks for the oportunity to win and awesome set of irons!!!! I love the Adams hybrids. I like A shafts that are a little less than regular but not overly soft.
The feel was great and accuracy was fantastic. I had no idea that Adams made such great clubs until this year. I hope they stay independent despite being bought out. Let them operate like a skunk works department but keep your huge corporate hands off, just pour money and watch them grow. I would like to see them in satin best.
Great products and always priced for the consumer also!! Really like what Adams has to offer, really like the KBS shafts. Would like for Adams to get more involved in putters. I would like to see Adam stay focused on what they are best at.
So far so good, I just hope they do not overextend. I play regular shaft. I would really like to see more graphite shafts offered. For what is perceived as a game improvement company, Adams has their fair share of nice looking forged irons. Hoepfully they will continue in this regard under their new ownership. I play stiff flex in my irons. Thanks, Scott. I currently play Adams A4 irons with steel shaft stiff and really like them. Would like to see Adams market their irons as well as they do their hybrids.
I have played R flex Adams for years and I like the feel and performance of their irons. I currently play Adams red line hybrid combo irons in a regular flex. I play Adams through out the set. I love the looks of my CB2. The only thing i miss from Adams line, is more shafts options! Adams A3 are the very first set of clubs.
Im curently playing Adams Speedline Fast 12 Driver. I too would love to see color options in the future! I play stiff shafts in irons. I must really echo what everyone else is saying, as far as product, Adams is right on point.
Where do you improve Adams? The marketing department, plus you have some really great golfers signed to Adams, lets use them, and target some younger players. I so hope that Adams keeps making good looking players clubs that have some added forgiveness. They seem to do the sole design very well, better than others. I think more visibility of the brand would be helpful. Now that TMAG owns them, maybe they will get more total product line exposure.
Stiff shafts please. Love everything Adams is putting out there. I play Stiff shafts on my CB2 irons. Please enter me in the CB3 giveaway. I have a d and LS.
These new irons from Adams Golf look fantastic. From Adams golf, would like to see some better marketing plan to market their clubs. And help average golfers understand their line up a better.
I really like the Adams product coming out. The only thing I would suggest is different coating options. I really like satin and even chrome finish irons. I play stiff shafts in my irions.

Keep up the good work. Sean D 9 years ago. I've tried Dynamic Gold and, whilst a great shaft, they are not what I would consider smooth. In fact, I've tried a variety of True Temper shafts over the years and none immediately came to mind as being what I'd love to try again this year. Then I came across a load of reviews on KBS shafts, all of which were consistent on one particular attribute Hmmm, sounded like just what I was after. I've always had a thing for Adams; I've played many of their clubs over the years and always enjoyed them.
So I get to work. Being an Adams fan, I know of one particualr store that often stocks Adams products so I immediately go there. Are they any good? In a word They have given me exactly what I was after: - Buttery smooth which I put down to both the forged head and the KBS shaft - High, but strong, ballflight with no ballooning - Forgiving I know when I've missed the sweetspot but the results are still decent - Great distance control - Dispersion seems good, but my swing is still warming up for so not a fair assessment yet - A very handsome club, either set up to the ball or in the bag Overall, I'm really pleased and incredibly keen to get out on the course more and more.
This is the year I get back into golf and these irons have got me really excited about it. Last edited: Mar 21, Idlenorth1 Head Pro Mar 22, Joined Nov 18, Messages Location Birmingham. Got these irons back end of last year and very happy with them, ,also got the Kbs stiff shaft and everything you say above is true Looking forward to a good season. Cheers guys. Got to the range again over the weekend, so they've had around 5 outings in total now range and course.
