It reminded me of the streamlining of a cyclist helmet and it turns out this is no coincidence. The Adams team have refined that technology for the Super S to become the most aerodynamic driver they have ever produced.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Which was good news, because testing this <a href=\"http:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2013\/08\/Speedline_SuperS-driver-crown.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-2697\" alt=\"Speedline_SuperS driver crown\" src=\"http:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2013\/08\/Speedline_SuperS-driver-crown.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2013\/08\/Speedline_SuperS-driver-crown.jpg 300w, https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2013\/08\/Speedline_SuperS-driver-crown-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2013\/08\/Speedline_SuperS-driver-crown-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2013\/08\/Speedline_SuperS-driver-crown-125x125.jpg 125w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>baby on six different links courses in five days, it was going to see a lot of wind from every angle possible. The good news is the Super S Speedline not only coped but seemed to excel in the windy conditions, from Cornwall to Somerset, Trevose Golf Club to Burnham &amp; Berrow, the Adams Super S Speedline lapped up the challenge and I enjoyed every minute of putting his driver to the test.<\/p>\n<p>I <a href=\"http:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2013\/08\/Speedline_SuperS-driver-face.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-2699\" alt=\"Speedline_SuperS driver face\" src=\"http:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2013\/08\/Speedline_SuperS-driver-face.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2013\/08\/Speedline_SuperS-driver-face.jpg 300w, https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2013\/08\/Speedline_SuperS-driver-face-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2013\/08\/Speedline_SuperS-driver-face-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2013\/08\/Speedline_SuperS-driver-face-125x125.jpg 125w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>played Trevose, St Enodoc and Saunton West course with the club set at 10.5 and played Saunton East, Royal North Devon and Burnham &amp; Berrow with the driver set at 9.5.

It felt solid and looking down on the club at address it inspired confidence \u2013 even more so after I started using it. I was impressed with the distances I was achieving and also the driver\u2019s accuracy.<\/p>\n<p>I would recommend this driver to players in all handicap category groups as it has the adjustability for higher handicapped players to adjust the driver as they improve. It also gives the low-handicap player plenty of feel and the ability to work the ball.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #6f0\">For more<\/span><\/strong> information go to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.adamsgolf.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"color: #ff9900\"><strong>Adams Golf Website<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first thing I noticed about the Adams Super S Speedline \u2013 and you\u2019ll probably do the same \u2013 was&#8230;  <a class=\"excerpt-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/golf\/equipment\/2691\/review-of-adams-golf-super-s-speedline-driver\" title=\"ReadReview of Adams Golf Super S Speedline Driver\">Read more &raquo;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":87,"featured_media":2694,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9,112767,3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2691","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-golf","category-equipment-reviews","category-equipment"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2013\/08\/Adams-Speedline-Driver-680.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2691","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/87"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2691"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2691\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2704,"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2691\/revisions\/2704"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2694"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2691"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2691"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2691"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
