“The Super S added Velocity Slot ball-speed tech to an adjustable 460cc head set at 10.5 and tunable 9.5-11.5. A standard-rung driver, forgiving for mid swing speeds.”
The Super S was the higher-launching, more forgiving half of Adams' final 2013 driver pairing, built around the same Velocity Slot Technology as the Super LS but tuned for more spin and a higher, easier ball flight rather than low-spin control. Adjustable between 9.5, 10.5 and 11.5 degrees, it was pitched as the accessible, confidence-inspiring option for players who wanted distance and forgiveness without fussing over launch conditions. Testers found it lived up to that brief — off-center strikes, especially toward the toe, lost little distance, and drives reportedly reached the 290-yard mark in testing — though more than one reviewer flagged a high-pitched, hollow sound at impact as its clearest weakness.
A competent, well-liked driver in its 2013 reviews with no follow-on cult story: it was the accessible half of Adams' last driver generation, sold through as TaylorMade wound the standalone Adams brand down, and today it draws no forum reverence or scarcity premium — just a cheap, decent-playing used driver.
Suits mid-handicap players and moderate swing speeds wanting an easy, high-launching, forgiving driver with basic loft adjustability (9.5-11.5 degrees); testers specifically praised its confidence-inspiring performance and hot ball speed off-center. Better players seeking a flatter, more penetrating flight and lower spin should choose the Super LS sold alongside it instead.
Part of Adams' final 2013 driver generation, released against TaylorMade's SLDR, Callaway's RAZR Fit Xtreme and Titleist's 913 D2/D3 in a season dominated by low-CG/adjustable-weight driver marketing; the Super S's higher-launch positioning mirrored the standard-vs-LS split Adams had already run with the Fast 12/Fast 12 LS pairing two years earlier. It was Adams' last mainstream driver release before TaylorMade discontinued new development under the Adams name.
Matches its standard ladder placement: the deep heel-and-toe Velocity Slot genuinely widened the sweet spot and testers confirmed minimal distance loss on toe misses specifically, giving it solid mid-pack forgiveness for a 2013 460cc driver — clearly more forgiving than its low-spin Super LS sibling, but not a dedicated max-GI design.
Calibrated across the whole catalog — a tour blade scores low here on purpose; it means control, not ease.
Realistic 2026 private-party pricing is roughly $30-$50; 2nd Swing's graded/reconditioned listings have shown it as low as $39.99, reinforcing that even warrantied retail pricing on this driver has settled into bargain-bin territory eleven-plus years after release and years after Adams stopped being a going concern as a driver brand.
Reading is one thing — hitting is another. Book a bay and see the numbers for yourself before you buy anywhere.
