Super Tuna Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Anyone else seen the pictures of some of the new Adams stuff? I was really digging that driver until I saw the top of it. Those people annoyed at the swoosh on the Covert are certainly in for a shock.

lmh3 Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 I'm hoping that this isn't a sign of things to come in the industry. I prefer a clean crown, I don't even like alignment marks on the crown so these graphics are not my cup of tea.

jayhawker Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Is this what you are talking about? Not exactly sure how I feel about it if it is. Doesn't really excite me, which would definitely keep me from buying it. Maybe this is the old one though, I can't say I have never been knowledgeable of anything adams besides hybrids.

lmh3 Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 There is a picture on another site that shows a supposed new Adams driver with the word speedline silk screened across the crown of the club in rather large writing. It also has a two tone paint job that gives the same look as the Nike Sumo with the giant silver Bow on the back of the head.

I guess we'll have to see, although if I ever bought it and it had something like that over the entire crown I would be getting a custom paint job. It would be way too distracting and annoying. I guess I am a purist though.

Please don't tell me they painted a bunch of graphics on the crown?

Aotearoa_Brad Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 not a pleasant path we are treading with regards t the crowns. I don't mind the alignment guide to a degree (some better than others) but IMHO less is definitely more regarding crown graphics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 I like my crown clean. Don't really mind an alignment mark if the driver works but I couldn't stand the waves on the back of the F12.

SPY VIP GolfSpy_X Posted November 22, 2012 SPY VIP Share Posted November 22, 2012 No, not what I was referring to much worse than just a graphic on a driver going on at Adams right now. Seriously?

SprayTech Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 I dont have a real problem with all different colors companies are using on their drivers , but with Adams , TM , and Nike putting a name or insignia slashed across the top is very displeasing and cheap looking imo . What really scares the crap out of me is the Club companies selling advertising space on top next , Coke , Pepsi , UPS , ect ........ . Just a matter of time I am afraid . But beings I am an Automotive Refinisher I can remedy that problem real quick . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SprayTech Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 I dont have any pictures of any clubs I have painted , only did a 1-3-5 wood woods for a guy in Kandy Gold many many years ago . I am thinking of respraying my G20 , but its still in such excellent shape even after a year and a half , I dont know if I want to mess with it . I used to have a web page of the stuff I did on Apples free web site but they dropped it and I have not felt like paying for a web page . But I have sprayed everything under the sun , from dried Cow Patties gold to a little girls coffin that was kid napped and murdered that came in damaged , I repaired it for free . Been in the business for 34 years now . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

revkev Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 I really like the plain white of the TMag but I had the Rapture and got used to whatever that little alignment aid was. I'm half blind anyway so it really doesn't bother me that much. If I had my way I'd not have the stupid designs on the crown though. In light of the comments here my question would be does anyone really like them and if so why?
