I have a Fast 10 3 wood that I got a couple weeks ago. It is honestly the best 3 wood I have had in a long time. It is very traditional looking unlike most of the '"fairway-hybrids" that Adams has made recently. I will try to post a pic sometime today.
I will be in Dallas with Adams early this week. I will try to snap some pics of this and any other protos if they will let me. I'll be back Wednesday and will give a report if I have any luck.
There is a web site with a photo and explanation. Can't post the link here due to spam issues but you can Google, Adams tour fast 10, and you can find the link.
I cant wait to see how and if Adams introduces this driver and faiway wood. Will they come in a couple "Standard" COG's milled out? Will the consumer be able to custom order a COG from Adams? The "Custom" possibilities seem endless.
maybe it's just me, but adams releasing new woods faster then even TM's rate... remarkable.
it's not just you, they are! And it's not a good thing either...
I kinda disagree.
It seems that all of Adams clubs are quite different then the previous model, they have different shapes etc.
TM seems to make alot of the the same thing and its very preditcable. The R9 for example. As soon as it came out you knew the next one would be bigger. Then the 460,and you knew then they would make a 460 w/ MWT, and etc.
Adams makes tons of great stuff, they are just not rebadging.

Just my $.02
You are correct. I just think companies like Adams confuse to many people with all of their product releases. I'm a club ho and they confuse me so you can imagine how the general public may feel with so many club releases.

LOL, yes you are correct! I just picked up a Idea Pro Gold hybrid 16* (its a cannon, actually replace my 3 wood w/ it). I thought this was a club from a couple seasons ago, I think its from this year though, actually I still don't know .
But as a consumer its great because there are so many options. If you know them all, you can find one that best suits you and your game.
Gotta tend to agree with some of the others here. I mean, how long was the original Speedline out before they introduced the LS? And how long has the LS been out now to be replaced by this one???
honestly the driver looks pretty sweet -- it was just the 3 wood that was unappealing. still i think ill pass as said above it looks almost exactly like the 9032ls.
im still waiting for a clamshell driver -- now that i would def buy
Hmmm....... This head doesn't even look remotely close to what the fwy-woods. I like the head, but am disappointed with it at the same time. I was hoping to see the ability to manipulate the COG like with the fwy-woods.
They are going to hand mill each head in the Tour Vans? Yeah right. More like they have been hand milled or maybe can be hand milled for adjustments at the factory. I dont' see Tour Van Tech's hand milling head, the cost and time for that seems VERY unlikely. These are basically the afterproduct of the 9033F and 9033HF Prototypes, more like the 9033F though. Metal and milling looks different, probably a more cost effective version as the others were very expensive. I wish I knew more, but Adams has fired off everyone that I got the goods and the rundown from.

For the Tour Vans it really does't seem that far fetched for the guys to mill the soles, but retail is another story. It wouldn't cost that much to equip their vans with some small machines and make up some tooling to hold the heads.
Here you go. I just got back from the factory and this is what I learned (remember)of the Fast10. GREAT looking club ,slightly larger club face which allowed them to make the air scoops larger,making the club more aerodynamic. This will be the buzz in clubs this year , everyone will be talking "aerodynamics, fast clubspeeds". Will come win 2 shaft options- Voodoo and a new Matrix HD something.Sorry don't remember. 2 drivers -standard and draw(no offset,looks good). 3 fairway woods, standard high launch , and draw model. The 3rd is a Tour model which may or may not come to retail. Each Fwy wood has a 12 gram weight in the back and a 6 gram weight on the toe as well as the heel. Tha standard HL has the 2 6gr weights milled out leaving the 12g only. Draw has the heal weight as well as part ogf the12g weight left. The Tour version has the 12gr weight removed leaving the 2 6gr weights towards the face promoting a penetrating flight. Same 2 shaft options only in heavier weights. I do have a pic ture of the 3 wood on my phone I just need to figure out how to load it onto the computer. I also have a picture of the ProBlack 3wood .....oops maybe I shouldn't have said that?

So no weights on the driver like on the fwy's then? Do tell on the Pro Black 3wood.

Brainfart. No Voodoo. The stock shafts will be the Aldila Wasabi and the Matrix HD something, still can't remember that one.
I hope ,as do you it sounds like, to be able to get the pics off of my phone and posted tomorrow.
That ProBlack sure looks good. Tom Watson was hitting both on the range. I think he may of kept the Black. Until tomorrow.......
Having hit the FAST 10 driver in an Adams test- it's not intended as a replacement for the 9032LS. The FAST 10 is intended for those that need more spin, higher launch, and more draw bias. The look at address is very similar to the 9032LS, and very similar feel. It was definitely easier to turn over than the LS.

I hit one today, as a buddy had one with the Wasabi shaft in a 10.5. There were few comments that it was a higher spin hook bias head.......I hit three balls with it.
I normally play TM's in 8.5 so I was well prepared for a HL ballon ball as most 10.5 are for me. WOW, it only ballon up slightly on the first swing and not as high as I thought when compared to my 8.5 trajectory. Then the next one was a low spin HL BOMB! The third was like the first.
I was quite impressed with the whole set up and will look into the Wasabi shaft and have a little talk with the Adams rep about a 8.5 head. The head in 10.5 sat very square to me and it felt very solid also.......Should be a great driver.
so i guess the question is -- is the fast ten a replacement for the 9032ls or rather supposed to serve a different purpose as mentioned earlier in the thread
I didnt know the policy about posting other sites pics, even though EVERYONE uses Wrx info all over the place, so I edited this before attaching. The fairways atleast have a sole that you CAN actually mill. I dont know WHY they would advertise a Tour Only Milled wood, but I guess they have diff plans.

Cats outof the bag! Lets see them!
Yeah! You've got me all excited now. I need to see the pro black three wood!
