PLANO, TEXAS, August 22, 2006 – Adding to its very popular line of Idea hybrids, Adams Golf (OTCBB:ADGO) introduces the tour-proven Idea Pro hybrid, a sleek combination of aesthetics and high-performance elements crafted for accomplished golfers. Already a proven winner on tour, the Idea Pro hybrid was designed and tested to meet the demands and skill level of top amateur and pro golfers.
"We're introducing the Idea Pro hybrid to the general public after the enormous response and success it has had on the PGA, Nationwide and Champions Tours," said Chip Brewer, Adams Golf CEO. "We used all three tours as a comprehensive proving ground for our latest hybrid and the results made for an easy decision to have the Idea Pro hybrid available to the consumer."
Adams Golf engineers modified the blueprint that has made the Idea lineup of hybrids so successful, by focusing on materials, weight and shaping that would appeal to better players. To optimize the center of gravity (CG), an adjustable weight port is positioned forward in the sole of the hybrid, promoting a lower spin rate while allowing for swing weight and shaft adjustment. The pull face construction and custom steel insert increase ball speed off the face while also reducing spin. The high-performance shaping of the Idea Pro hybrids provide greater versatility off the tee, in the fairway or in the rough. The sleek, non-offset design features an iron-like topline for greater playability and confidence.
The Idea Pro hybrid already ranks first in usage by pros on the combined PGA, Champions and Nationwide Tours. With the Idea Pro hybrid in play throughout the 2006 season on all three tours, Adams Golf set the hybrid count record on the Nationwide Tour, with 59 in play at the Northeast Pennsylvania Classic, and the Champions Tour, with 74 in play at the Senior PGA Championship. It was also the most played hybrid on the PGA TOUR at The International.
The Idea Pro hybrid is available with lofts of 16, 18, 20, 23 and 26 degrees. The stock shaft is the Aldila VS 80-gram hybrid graphite. The stock grip is the Golf Pride Tour Velvet. The Idea Pro hybrid will be available in stores beginning September 15, 2006 with an SRP of $249.99.
