Adams Golf, the industry leader in hybrid and hybrid iron technology, has taken another leap forward in producing high-performance, easy-to-hit playability for a wide range of golfers with the introduction of the Idea Tech V4 hybrids and irons. The latest refinement in Velocity Slot Technology features a revolutionary Cut-Thru design that produces the same CT levels to that of a driver.
“With refined Velocity Slots, we were able to produce a CT around 240, which is what golfers will find in today’s drivers,” said Justin Girard, Senior Design Engineer. “This is something the industry hasn’t seen in a standard stainless steel hybrid. The increased CT is going to deliver a higher launch angle and higher ball speeds. Golfers will quickly notice that these hybrids are as hot as their driver.”
Cut-Thru Technology
With continuous refinements being made in club design, and specifically for hybrid design, the technology has evolved quickly, and never more apparent than with the Idea Tech V4 hybrids. This new design has Velocity Slots in the crown and sole of the club, and also features a channel that is literally cut through the head of the club from the top slot to the bottom allowing for even more face deflection. It was important to seal the slots in order to be compliant with USGA regulations, so the Idea Tech V4 hybrids feature a TPU insert which also improves the feel and give the hybrids a very crisp sound similar to that of an iron.
Unprecedented Performance
Designers are able to optimize Velocity Slots Technology in the Idea Tech V4 hybrids by isolating each slot shaping parameter, including the thru-slots resulting in the maximized CT. With the introduction of the original Velocity Slot Technology in the Idea a12 OS hybrids, engineers saw an increase in CT of 20% vs. the Idea Tech V3 hybrids. With the use of Thru Slots in the new Idea Tech V4 hybrids, engineers have achieved an increase in CT of 67% to levels only seen before in today’s titanium drivers, but done in a stainless steel hybrid. In addition to the hotness of the face, the Idea Tech V4 uses a multi-material construction featuring tungsten heel/toe perimeter weighting in the long irons provides optimal CG location for increased forgiveness & higher launch.
Two Distinctive Set Options
Because the Tech V4 is offered in two distinct sets featuring high-performance stainless steel, a forged iron set and an all-hybrid set, the V4 covers a wide range of golfers anywhere from the single handicap golfer to the higher handicap golfer who is looking to launch the ball higher and gain more distance. The forged set features a 3H, 4H, 5H and 6-iron through PW using forged 8620 carbon steel with nickel plating. The all-hybrid set is 4H through GW. Both sets feature a premium PVD finish for a non-glare, sleek look.
Models, Pricing and Availability
The Idea Tech V4 Iron sets will have a manufacturer suggested retail price (MSRP) of $899.99 (steel) and $1099.99 (graphite). The Idea Tech V4 Hybrids will have an MSRP of $249.99. They will be offered in right and left hand in light, regular and stiff flexes. The Idea Tech V4 all-hybrid set will also be offered in a set specifically designed for women featuring a satin finish. The Idea Tech V4 hybrids and irons will be shipping from Adams Golf at the end of September.

(Men’s and Women’s)
always interested in something for all skill levels. These look nice!
I played the a12OS set of irons and hybrids and loved them. I really like the velocity slot and am glad to see it continue with this line. This should be a very hot set!
It sounds like another sound release by Adams. I’m like the 2-7 in the hybrids, nice wide variety. Looking forward to giving these a crack in a couple of weeks
Wow, I am intrigued by this set. They appeared to do a really good job of blending the hybrids into a set of irons. The cut through technology sounds like they are onto something and if a hybrid is as hot as a driver, then I definitely want to try. And I have my chance this weekend!
Having hit these all I can say is another solid set from Adams golf.
These look great. I will definitely be trying these out when they ship later this month!
Having been able to see these and hit them at the Atlantic City tour van stop I can say these are awesome clubs.
These irons look pretty nice, and I’d love to give them a hit. The hybrid technology is incredibly intriguing.
Thise hybrids look good. Adams seems to have a lot of iron sets out on the market lately.
Awesome, I’ve really enjoyed my V3s. Can’t wait to give these a shot.
I hit these and thought they were very good irons.
I’d expect nothing less than awesome in the hybird department from Adams but what really has me intrigued is the looks of these irons. Reminds me of the Redline which I thought were outstanding. Can’t wait to check these out.
Added to the list of hybrids to check out this weekend. Adams has some high quality products and this new slot looks interesting to say the least.
Those are pretty great looking hybrids for sure.
I can’t wait to hit these, they’ve got it in the looks department for sure!
I have been using the V3’s for two years and they are spectacular. If these are a notch up then Adams has hit another home run.
I had a chance to hit these at the AC Tour Van Stop. Another solid offering from Adams Golf.
The technology seems excellent. I love the fact that they offer two different set make ups for different needs.
i wouldn’t be mad if Adams gave me a set of the forged irons with a few hybos…
always wanted an Adams hybrid…maybe it’s about that time…
I had pretty much decided on getting a 19 degree Idea Tech V3 as long as I could get it with the Ozik shaft. Now that I see this V4 coming I guess I’m going to have to wait. I prefer a more compact head shape when hitting 18-plus degree hybrids. They seem to get through the turf more easily.
I look forward to hitting these!
and I thought the A12 OS were on my shortlist…now I need to add these.
those look wonderful I’d love to test them out
I love my adams v3 forged set, and I can’t wait to hit the v4 forged set.
These look nice. I’d like to give these a swing. Nice forged irons with some of the best hybrids out there? Not a bad combo.
Love the finish on these! Adams may have another hybrid hit on their hands
spent time on the range this past weekend hitting the V4 hybrid. All I can say is this is one great club. Nice high ball flight and not one hook. For me that is saying somthing.
I’m going to give these a try. My old adams irons need an upgrade.
Got to hit the 4h in Atlanta and LOVED it. Definitely a winning hybrid.
Wonderful goods from you, man. I’ve understand your stuff previous to and you’re just too great.
I really like what you have acquired here, certainly like what you’re stating and the way in which you say it. You make it entertaining and you still take care of to keep it wise. I can not wait to read far more from you. This is really a terrific web site.
Best sets of hybrids and irons I have ever hit.owned. I just recently bought this V4 set. I replaced my Callaway Razr X HL. I will not even look back. Adams did it right!
