Adams Super Speedline LS snapped

peterrod · August 16, 2013

I took an off day from work yesterday to play 18 holes at my local county course in Belleville NJ.

During my round on the 16^th tee box I experience the unthinkable.

My 1 month old Adams Super Speedline LS driver head snapped off the shaft during my backswing.

For the next 30 seconds I thought it was a joke but then my anger level rose.

I manage to go par birdie par on the last three holes to shoot my best round ever

81(44 on the front and 37 on the back) par 70 course.

So after my round I went to the PGA SS in Paramus and they told me the product will be send back to the Adams.

He said hopefully in two weeks I should receive the club back at the store.

Again it was a weird experience but good thing I didn’t trade away my backup driver.

Just wanted to share my experience

update had the wrong name it was the Super Speedline LS

Problem is that you bought a Superline instead of a Speedline!

The tip on my LS snapped and the head flew off on the first day I played it. It took a little less then two weeks but I got it back in one piece. I'm not a huge fan of the paint, or the oem headcover, or the fact that it broke and every time I hit it I'm afraid its gonna happen again but good god its a freaking bomber. Its staying in the bag unless something else comes along that hits it that straight and long.

Well I guess when you see a new driver snap your focus gets turned up
I nailed my 3 wood like 250 plus yds on 16th and 18th tee box.
The Super Speedline LS is a great driver. Just didnt expect it to snap.
No biggie i will work with my 3 wood for the next couple of weeks.

Adams quality has been going down steadily...taylormade needs to whip them into shape.

Ckay I didnt even make contact with the ball.
The head just snapped off during my downswing before impact.
I'm hoping by next week i will have the driver back in my bag.
The only bright side my 3 wood is going 250 to 260yds.
So i might ditch the driver.

I am a lefty who plays golf righty. It is always fun to make lefty jokes.

Hope you get the driver fixed though. I just bought one that should be here tomorrow.
