I've been pondering the SW and LW too...haven't seen the specs on the bounce on these yet though

Enjoyed the videos buddy, liked the "BIRdeee" at the end of the putting video, classic. These are some forgiving clubs for sure.
I found THP when Googling for as12OS reviews. I've read many of the pages and thanks to all of you, picked up my set with graphite senior flex shafts today.
I'm interested in the SW and LW but can't find them for sale individually. Does anyone know where I might be able to pick them up?
Thanks
I got to try my set out today. My previous set was the a7 OS women's full set. I felt really tired and weak. If I didn't have the new gear to play with, I would've been home.
Everything was at least a club longer. My 9i used to be 100yds and my 7i was 125. I was hitting the 9i easy 125. Nice long high flight was really noticeable off of the first ball. I had to wrestle with the 4H and 5H but that's typical when I haven't played in a few days (since Saturday).
My thoughts: I'm almost 5'8" and I felt like the club length worked better for me than my women's set. That might be a factor in my results. Also the senior flex on these felt much different than the ladies flex - another factor. It was an easy transition since I was already playing a similar club with the a7 OS, so they hybrids felt right at home.
Along with my G20 driver, 3w and 5w, my game just got a lot longer and more accurate. I need a new sand wedge and 60º to round out my new set of clubs.
Nice job T-Mod...always good to start off with a birdie!
Glad you had success with your new sticks gingerista...be sure to keep us updated on your progress with them.

Yoccos with the first hole birdie. Nice buddy!
They are sooooo forgiving aren't they TMex? Nice starting out the round with a birdie, WTG. I plan to get back out tomorrow myself, will post my thoughts then or Friday morning.
Now that the temps have cooled off a bit, I've been devoting serious time to practice on the driving range. I have hit about 500 balls this week using only my wedges and irons. I am not keeping score but usually jump out onto the course for a quick nine afterwards.
Today I played 6 holes after range practice. Here's a summary of my shots with the Adams clubs today.
I'm really having a good time hitting these irons this week. It's the best I have hit them since I got them. Practice is paying off with the irons but the driver is misbehaving again. Story of my life.
- 9 iron approach - great shot to front of green (flag was in back), very high and straight at pin but should have used 8 iron (was guessing yardage)
- 5 hybrid approach - hit it too good - hit green and rolled just off back of green
- 5 hybrid tee shot - missed to the right of green on par 3 (pin high)
- 8 iron tee shot - almost had a hole-in-one on par 3. This shot was really high and had a slight draw that drew right in towards the flag. It hit the center of the green rolled up slightly on the bank and rolled back barely missing the hole. Tap in birdie.
- 8 iron approach - hit dead straight to pin about 10' short of pin. Another really high shot that just stopped when it hit the green.
I have been hitting my irons VERY high lately. I love watching them get up high and land softly but I need to learn how to hit them low too. Maybe you can show me how you do that next time we play.
Hope the back gets better TBT, never fun trying to play in pain.
Mentioned to duey earlier today that cold might be better than heat. I keep ice packs in our freezer and use them often. Bio Freeze rub is good too.Yeah, it sucked...I couldn't seem to get through the ball so I either push sliced everything right or if I over compensated I was spinning out too fast and hitting huge pulls left.
I have the heating pad on it now and I took a muscle relaxer to try to get some relief. I really want to play tomorrow, but I think I need to rehab the back for a few days.
