2010 Adams CB1 & Adams CB2 Irons!

[MmmmmmBuddy]

Sorry, I just ordered all four sets. oops

 

Even before the boards I would never buy without hitting.

Just a little disclaimer... I say the same thing to my customers almost daily.

so baically it is the difference between the ap1s and ap2s

Not really. AP1's are geared at the player who wants to play Titleist, and needs some help. The CB1 and CB2 irons are very close in performance and look. Putting them on the ground next to each other, it is hard to tell the difference. Not so with the AP irons.

So what is the difference between sets then?

CB2 has a 4 way cambered sole and progressive offset, while the CB1 does not. CB2 flies higher than CB1, and both look like players clubs, not shovels.

Ok...I'll take a set of each then. That way, I can figure out just which set is right for me.

Best plan I've heard so far. Credit card # please?

CB1 makes me reconsider my PING i5. I work at a Golf Galaxy and we haven't seen these yet here in the Chicago area. Adams rep will be here this weekend.... He has some explaining to do!

I tested the CB1's with my sales rep and was very impressed, not enough to give up the blades, but they felt very solid. They really come out of the turf nicely and flight the ball very well.

noticeably higher than pro blacks though right???

[lmh3]

Not a great deal higher, it averaged to about a degree and a half higher launch angle on each club according to the Trackman.

Well...these are back on the wish list since my Cleveland deal went south.

Was this testing outside?? We have Kudu, and I found that the peak height of the flight of the CB1's was higher than the Pro Black's, not that that's all bad...

nicsherman,

What's the story on these? What's supposed to be the difference between the two? Which is more forgiving, which is the more blade-like? Yada, yada, yada.

 

Thanks, I'll hang up and listen.

the 2's are supposed to be a bit easier to hit, but still have the "players look" to them. I found the 1's to be to my liking, with a slightly more controllable ballflight.. (like I can do that). It would be tough for the average consumer to differentiate between the 2 sets, IMO. It just seemed like the 1's were a bit more controllable.
