Love the sound of all the tech involved in these models. From a looks perspective, I would definitely gravitate towards the M5.

I can’t think of a specific example but I feel like we’ve seen irons before where the base is connected to the top line. Is there actual tech in this one that makes it different than the rest and legitimizes the speed bridge name? Edit: or am I wrong in thinking this has been done before?
Im honestly not sure. In speaking with them, they feel pretty strongly about the bridge and how it allows the rest of the club to work. Hollow body for instance, has a complete back that is together with a hollow interior, so my gut tells me there are some parallels there, but not with the same cut through that is in place here. If that makes any sense at all.
Does this serve the same (relative) purpose that the EXO cage does on some of Callaway's irons? A little apples to oranges as that structure is closer to the face, I think. I don't mind how the speed bridge looks and if it does provide some of what a hollow body iron does with a more traditional sound that seems like a win to me.
Enjoy the look of the M5 not so much the M6. Also wondering how strong that speed bridge will be and hold up.
Function over form. Look horrendous, but I’m sure they do what they are intended to do.

take away that goofy bridge garbage (hey a built-in carry handle!)and they look very speedbladier
https://www.thehackersparadise.com/adams-xtd-irons-preview/Could not find anything but the slingshots that went heel to toe. But I’ve still got this visual in my head of an iron with what looks like a wildlife bridge going top to bottom. Really wide. And yellow lettering. Hmmm.
I love my M3s and MG wedges. So not a TM hater. But I would have to disagree. They have to come up with multiple sets of new irons every year. I would bet many times, for all companies, things are added just to have something new to market. How many gimmicks are here one year and gone the next?
I was surprised that your comment was the first to question the design.....and I couldn't agree with you more. I'm a big fan of TM products and technology, but the "bridge" design is not appealling to me.Call that bridge what you want, it’s hideous. I’m sure it does what they want it to, but man those look horrible.
