Adams A3 XTD

I just bought one of these drivers and I am ecstatic. I am clearly 5 - 10 yards longer and feel comfortable with the Aldila shaft. I have not seen "pushes" or "fades" that you sometimes see with a longer shaft.

I love this driver. I definitely am hitting it straighter. If your driver is the week part of you game check this one out.

Re: Adams A3 XTD

I do need a new driver and haven't heard much bad about these. What's the difference between the A3 and A3 OS?

Re: Adams A3 XTD

Why did you buy a Driver when you could have bought a Senate seat from the governor?

not sure. But they have some on Ebay for $99. I wish I had checked there first.

Re: Adams A3 XTD

The OS is designed for seniors. I believe it is offset a little to encourage draws.

By the way, the new A4 is available. They come with Matrix shafts among others. Wait a few months and the price will be right.

OS stands for oversize.

Re: Adams A3 XTD

They are both 460cc, so I don't think one is bigger than the other.

I believe there is added weight in the heel to be slightly on the draw bias and the club is designed for slower speeds versus the regular A3. I believe it is supposed to have a higher flight as well.

I don't make this stuff up, this is what Adams and other web sites report.
