“One of Adams' last designs under TaylorMade; a very forgiving, easy-launch hybrid. A dependable rung-1 long-iron replacement.”
The companion hybrid to the Blue combo iron set (see that record for the shared platform), sold individually at roughly £129 per club in four lofts. It carries the same 'Velocity Slot' sole channel as the irons for face flex/ball speed, and a slimmer 55g Aldila SlimTech shaft that gets narrower toward the tip for extra kick and higher launch. In head-to-head hybrid group tests of its era it launched the highest and spun the most of the models compared - great for getting a nervous long-club swing airborne, but reviewers noted that energy spent climbing came at the cost of carry distance for faster swingers.
A plain, honest, mass-market rescue club with no cult following and no reason for one - it was one option among many similarly-specced game-improvement hybrids released that year, superseded quickly as Adams wound down under TaylorMade.
High handicappers and seniors who struggle to launch long irons; not for better players chasing a flatter, more penetrating hybrid flight (the same-era Adams Idea Pro Gold Hybrid, see separate record, was built for that instead).
Direct rival to Callaway's Big Bertha hybrid and TaylorMade's RocketBallz Stage 2/AeroBurner rescue clubs of 2014; shares its Velocity Slot sole technology with the Blue metalwoods and irons released the same year.
Near the top of the forgiveness scale: wide sole, low-and-back CG, and a shaft profile built purely to launch the ball high and easily. That same tuning is the trade-off - it launches highest and spins most among its period rivals, so distance and trajectory control suffer for anyone who doesn't need the extra help getting airborne.
Calibrated across the whole catalog — a tour blade scores low here on purpose; it means control, not ease.
Individual used Blue hybrids typically sell for roughly $25-$45 in 2026 - cheap, plentiful, and with no upward pressure from collector demand.
