Add this to the dual cavity construction and you not only get increased distances but also increased forgiveness.<\/p>\n<p>The 3 and 4 hybrid use a speed slot on the top and sole of the club head, these are used to increase the Characteristic Time (CT) which on these particular hybrids has been increased by 230, helping the ball at impact to rocket off the face and achieve added distances.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #6f0\"><a href=\"http:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2013\/08\/Idea_SuperS-hybrid-heel-300.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-2743\" alt=\"Idea_SuperS hybrid heel 300\" src=\"http:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2013\/08\/Idea_SuperS-hybrid-heel-300.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2013\/08\/Idea_SuperS-hybrid-heel-300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2013\/08\/Idea_SuperS-hybrid-heel-300-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2013\/08\/Idea_SuperS-hybrid-heel-300-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2013\/08\/Idea_SuperS-hybrid-heel-300-125x125.jpg 125w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>Conclusion<\/span><\/p>\n<p>I love the make up of this set and enjoyed testing them over the 5 days I played with them taking on 6 different courses in which they coped very well. They gave me plenty of feel and control and as I stated earlier I felt I had a lot of control with the 3 and 4 hybrid clubs and when the wind blows on a links course, you need as much feel and control as possible.<\/p>\n<p>I would recommend these to any golfer looking for a game improvement iron that gives you added feel. And I would certainly recommend this combination of hybrid and irons to any golfer, from scratch through to 28, I thought it worked really well.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff9900\"><strong>Go and have some fun.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Clubs Tested Irons:\u00a0Super S\u00a0 Combinations: 3&amp;4 Hybrid 5-PW Irons Shaft:\u00a0KBS Tour 90 Flex:\u00a0Stiff When I first saw the Adam Super&#8230;  <a class=\"excerpt-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/golf\/equipment\/2729\/review-of-adams-golf-super-s-iron-combination\" title=\"ReadReview: Adams Golf Super S Iron Combination\">Read more &raquo;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":87,"featured_media":2731,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9,112767,3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2729","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-Super-S-Irons-main.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2729","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=2729"}],"version-history":[{"count":13,"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2729\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2763,"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2729\/revisions\/2763"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2731"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2729"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2729"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theaposition.com\/planetgolfreview\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2729"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
