PLANO, TEXAS, March 31, 2010 - Adams Golf introduces the latest offering of
its
successful and industry-leading Idea franchise with the new Idea Pro Black
CB1
irons. Designed for skilled players, the premium set features eight
tour-styled forged
carbon steel heads with a dramatic nickel-chrome plated and black physical
vapor
deposition (PVD) finish. Engineered for and played by some of the best
players in
the world, the Idea Pro Black CB1 irons deliver a penetrating ball flight
for superior
shot-making ability with an exceptionally soft feel.
The traditionally forged 8620 carbon steel head construction provides
outstanding
control, performance and feedback for the lower-handicap golfer. Each head
has a
precision milled cavity and precisely located center of gravity to offer
longer, more
consistent distance with improved accuracy. The set also features milled
grooves
that comply with 2010 USGA competition requirements while maximizing spin
from
all playing conditions. A thin top line and beveled trailing edge reduces
turf
interaction, delivering the look and feel from a variety of lies that
better players
expect. In addition, the constant offset through the entire set offers
superior control
for players wanting to work their ball flight.
"Originally developed exclusively for our professional staff players like
Tom Watson,
the overwhelmingly positive comments about the feel and performance of the
CB1s
from the tour inevitably led us to make this set an integral part of the
successful
Idea family of irons," said Chip Brewer, President and CEO of Adams Golf.
"This
stealth-looking set has already received high marks from golf enthusiasts
plugged
into the online community so we look forward to bringing the CB1s to
low-handicap
golfers everywhere who appreciate the control and workability of this
forged set of irons."
The stock shafts for the Idea Pro Black CB1 iron set are the Rifle Project
X Flighted steel shaft or the Mitsubishi Rayon Javln FX i95 graphite shaft,
available in regular, stiff or extra-stiff flexes. Offered standard in a
right-handed 4-GW set configuration, the Idea Pro Black CB1 iron sets begin
shipping to golf shops April 15 with a suggested retail price of $899.99
for steel and $1,099.99 for graphite.
