Adams Idea Tech V3 Forged Irons
ADAMS Idea Tech V3 Forged Iron Set 4-6 Hybrid with Graphite Shafts, 7H, 8-GW with Steel Shafts
Forged irons aren’t just for single digit handicappers. With the Idea Tech V3 Forged, Adams offers a forged super-game-improvement club. The Tech V3 Forged Set consists of 4-, 5- and 6- progressively-sized hybrids, a 7-mid-hybrid and four oversized cavity back forged irons (8-GW). Thelong hybrids feature strategically placed tungsten weighting in the premium stainless steel head for enhanced forgiveness and spin while a four-way chambered sole and recessed heel and toe areas reduce turf drag for superior playability and versatility. The transitional hybrid mid-iron includes a viscoelastic vibration dampening system for exceptional feel. A precisely located heel and toe weighting in the oversized forged heads of the short irons maximize scoring potential.
Plus, they look sinister with that black finish.

This is the sister set to my new set. I got the all hybrid version of this set back on Christmas Eve. It is the same 456 hybrids, the 7 mid-hybrid, and then 8,9,P,G are also mid-hybrids, or essentially wide sole clubs.
The 4,5,6 are absolute gold. Unbelievable. I went from Callaway 5H heavenwood, and 2,3,4 X-Hybrids to these, and these hybrids were just perfect with the first hit. In fact, I pulled the plastic off the 6 hybrid in the fairway on the first hole that day, hit into the wind on a cold day and was the only one in my foursome GIR and to make a par. On the longer hybrids, I believe these are strengthened a little from the Callaways as well, the 4H is 22 degrees, and with my Callaway 3 X-Hybrid it was 21 degrees.
Now the mid-hybrids are taking a little more getting used to. One thing is that they are easy to hit, and they are forgiving and go straight - but distance is screwy for me right now with them. Sometimes I am hitting really high, and sometimes not. I can be hitting about 30 yards variance in the 8-hybrid. Part of this is that I am walking now, and it is hard on me - hitting irons and wedges gets rough for me later in the round (hybrids and driver I can hit all day without a problem)- The other problem is that only one round played (out of six) with these clubs has been with the course in non-sloppy conditions.
I will probably get used to these irons, but if not, by summer, I may be looking at the 7-P in the Adams CB2s - you get the same dark finish, but in non Super Game Improvement. Or I could see picking up the X-24 7-P cheap on closeout as well. That club didn’t work out for Callaway, but I still think it looks cool, and I still love the X line.
One additional club I did add since I got these was a 19-degree Adams Super Hybrid. It has a larger head than the Tech V3s, and is replacing both my Callaway 2 hybrid and Callaway 5W.
One note on the black finish. It will lose that finish the same as a black wedge will. They are still going to look great - but the sole won’t be that jet black very long. Take a look at some of the high res detail picks on ebay of the Adams Super Hybrids.

I have a set of earlier Adams hybrid irons, and my main complaint was a loss of distance from about the six iron up.

I wish I had purchased the V3 forged set. I got the complete V3 hybrid set and during the third round the 8 iron/hybrid head broke off of the shaft (senior graphite) when I hit a shot out of some very thick rough. This club was never abused and I don’t think it should have happened but when you feel the weight of the club head with the very wide sole I guess you can see how this could be a problem. Adams Golf refuses to fix or replace the club because I bought them (brand new) on ebay. Pretty poor customer service/satisfaction, I think.
