I saw that. I may be tinkering...

Same adapter according to Jman.
Man that thing is so freaking stealth looking. I've seen it at the store multiple times, but have yet to swing it.
Jman since you're playing it now - what spin characteristics does this bad boy have?
I like the driver, but am not a huge fan of that style of headcover.
Just would have liked to see flex and weight options not flex determining what weight to play.

I like how the shafts are interchangeable with TM. Makes sense. Also like how it plays at 45". None of the 46" craziness.
I'm not even sure Adams offers custom shaft options.
They are?! Did I miss that?

What's confusing. Would personally just like to see the 5 offered in stiff flex as well. If you're doing to offer different weights, offering them in different flexes as well. That's all I would have liked to see personally.

I admit. I got through your pictures and got giddy.
It's no secret I like Adams' products.

Well I tried this guy last night at the Adams Demo day. My thoughts on it probably aren't that good because it was twenty mph winds and at me. Well first impressions were I thought the head was enormous compared to my Cleveland 588 Custom Driver. Like the Red Tie shaft option which I think is great for this. But hitting it I did not really like the sound, because it didn't have a nice crisp sound to it. Almost sounded like hitting a ball with a baseball bat I thought. But that's basically what I thought about it since it was so windy so couldn't judge distances.
Loved my time with the XTD at Adams and demoing prior. And at 45", it's not just shaft length getting the ball out there, it's the technology. It was consistently among the longest drivers for me whenever I tested it. We learned a lot about their testing down at Adams and, like James said, they are the hottest face in golf based on their testing and how they push the COR limits as tolerances. Great driver with a great shaft.
It was so cool listening to their "take" on them and producing drivers.
I really am quite excited to spend time with this one.
Really like the looks of this. With all that has been said on these, and the shaft pairing they've chosen for them, I'm really curious to hit one.
I can't wait to hear your thoughts on this one, James. I know Johnny Mojo can't say enough about this driver, and I'm sure it's with good reason. Personally the slot doesn't bother me all that much, and launching the ball a long ways would make me forget about it even quicker. LOVE the fact that it's got the TM adapter on it, as that should make finding shaft options even easier. Look forward to seeing some in-play results.
Agreed buddy, the slot to me is easy to get over now, I get that its not for others, I used to be that way too but in the end if it works I'm game.
The adapter was a really smart move, rather than making it hard to find adapters, use the most widely used adapter from your "parent" company (not best way to describe it, but you know what I mean).
Yeah, I got the feeling it was more like big brother/little brother sort of relationship. One's clearly in charge, but that doesn't mean the little brother isn't going to push the boundaries.
Sorry if I missed it, but what loft are you planning on playing this with? With it being a low-spin head, seems 9.0* might be a little low, but also having to deal with change in lateral movement with change in loft might not be ideal either (at least I'm assuming that's the case).
