Jacks Golf on EBay is selling them for $239 shipped. I got the 19* hybrid.

How are they able to offer it so cheap, when its not even out yet?  Has anyone used Jack's Golf before???

Fwiw, I ordered mine from Jacks golf on eBay and the shipping confirmation came from GPP...

I hit this today at a demo.  14.5 Super Fairway XTD. Rep told me it would run around 300.00

It was waaaaaaaay  longer than any 3 wood out there.  Way easy to hit too.

Was as long as my driver easy.  Had stock stiff Fubuki 60 gram shaft.

My driver SS is about 102.

I am looking at a strong 3 wood purchase with the xtd for no other reason than to hit straight consistent drives, leaving the Superfast TP 2.0 for those bombing moments where extra height and carry over tree lines and a more aggressive attack is required. Anyone looking at this potential purchase like me?  I have no business hitting a3 wood off the deck and I am lucky if I can get a 17 degree off the deck for that matter. I was taught to hit on the upswing and tee it as high as possible in the late '80's.

Does anyone know what custom shaft options there are? I can't find it anywhere on the site.  Would love to use a heavier shaft.

These clubs are sweet.  Rep was by the other day.  I love the super hybrid.  I was hitting the 17 degree almost 250.  The driver and a 3 wood felt great as well.

One thing about them is the slots (just like the RBZ) make you launch them high.  For people that don't have any problem getting height, its a little much.

Went to demo day today and hit them on the range

Driver was ok. I did not like the sound and light feel of driver head. My D3 is safe for now

Fairway wood was ok, don't see whole lot of improvement over my f11 ti. About the same performance

Super hybrid was disappointment, fubuki shaft felt too light and tip is soft. I was hoping it to be the one but looks like I will have to search more.

Now CB3 iron was a huge hit for me. Super easy to hit and high and long. I think Admas has a winner here. KBS shaft was a bit spinny but with the right shaft, this is a serious iron that I want to go get a set. Perfect top shape and performance.... I20 iron was not as good as this Cb3

They will custom order you pretty much anything.  Their up-charges are a little higher than most other companies because they don't keep a bunch of exotics in stock.  Basically, if you want it, they'll go get it.

Not surprised with your fw wood results given you already bag the ti version of the f11.  I just like the superfairway look more because it looks pear shaped to me vs the more rounded f11.

45* PW in CB3 :rolleyes:

$300 for hybrid :rolleyes:

I have played fubuki for years...if it is not watered and cheap...what is AX?  65g only?  I play 80 in my fw...is it all about distance and ugly slots any more?

I would rather have something from Will! :clapping:

I am sure you could upgrade the shaft to a heavier Fubuki of your liking

interesting,  for me the 14.5 degree xtd Ti flew about 20 yards further than my 13.5 degree F11 Ti.  

Higher launch, and lower spin.

I might be in minority but I prefer F12 3 wood over XTD Super FW. It's ok but I'm hitting F12 3 wood very nicely. In my opinion, both are better than F11 FW which didn't like me too well.

Shape wise, super fairway is better look because it sits better on fairway and not as bulky as f11 however my f11 ti with Harrison Saga is a go to club for me on the tee when fairway is really tight and hit it really straight.
If I try to hit f11 from fairway, the lie has to be perfeact for me to hit a great shot otherwise I use my hybrid.
Super fairway with right shaft will be a monster though.

I hope so too.

Last time when I ordered Adams A12OS hybrid with Projext X 6.0 hybrid shaft from Adams directly through my local Edwin Watts, it took me exactly 13weeks for me to receive it.

I had Edwin Watts to call in to verify the order status and their "expected delivery of shaft" was keep being delayed and had horrible experience.

If you get 20yrds more from a new 3 wood, it is money well spent, I am happy for you!

One thing I would check on is actual loft of your clubs.... My last G15 4wood (supposed to be 17 degree) came out actual loft of 15degree... No wonder it was long for me.

I play 44* PW in JPX-800 non pro version so distance for CB3 was superb. Also it made it easy for me to hit knock down shots too.

I love everything about this new CB3... looks great and performs well.

I was not happy with stock Fubuki even though it is real Fubuki. Price point doesn't bother me if they put a killer shaft in it.

That's the word on the street....I have been searching high and low in eBay..found a tour issue one but that's it. I'm hoping my Edwin watts will have them Thursday but I doubt it...they are getting lazy about getting stuff in on time.

Got my 19* hybrid today. Looks great except for a misaligned grip. I hate the stock Adams grips anyway so its not a big deal to me.

I ordered a 19 degree, I can't wait to get this beast in. I'm looking to replace my 3 iron and maybe even my 3 wood off the deck. I can get a easy 210 with the 21 so hopefully at least 220 or more with the 19.

Just got off the phone with Adams, they were saying March 15 release now for the 3 wood, which means we should start seeing some on ebay and select places within the week!!! They also said that they will be offering a 70g Fubuki Alpha in the 3 wood as well. Ima need to get an 80g atleast. And they are going to do the 70g also with the Fast12 driver.

You obviously were not hitting the Ax400 X Flex that I have in my Super XTD hybrids. It is stout and tip stiff. Heavy as well. Mine are D4 as I got them +1/4" and they are a bit too long so I have to get them cut down.

I was under the impression that Dan's couldn't get them in until mid April?  Well I guess there is hope!
