Hi guys, this is Trevor with GolfEtail.com, and today I am reviewing the Adams CB-1 Forged Irons.

The CB-1 Irons are forged from soft 8620 carbon steel, so they give you incredible feel and feedback. More accomplished players who play these blade-style irons are really going to enjoy the way they can work the ball with these clubs. They also feature this precision milled cavity which offers a little more forgiveness, pulling the weight out to the perimeters. Even those who play these blades need a little bit of forgiveness on those occasional off-center hits, and these irons are going to provide that for you.

You can see the CB-1’s feature this nice tour-style blade. They have smaller heads, a nice, thin top line, and they also have this nickel-chrome black plated finish which is dramatic looking, reduces glare, and is basically really cool to look at.

You can see the CB-1’s feature this nice thin sole, and have a beveled trailing edge that improves turf interaction. You can also see that they have a very slight offset that is consistent throughout the set, which is very common in players irons like these.

Thanks for watching guys, these were the Adams CB-1 irons. If you are a low handicapper and are looking for a blade that is really going to allow you to work the ball and give you great distance and feedback, the CB-1 Irons may be the clubs for you.

The Diablo Edge Drivers feature a 4-piece modular design, and each piece of the driver is fused together with the others. So, it features Callaway’s Fusion Technology which gives you a great transfer of energy between the parts.

Hi guys, this is Trevor with GolfEtail.com, and today we are going to be reviewing the TaylorMade R9 Irons, designed to promote distance, forgiveness, consistency, and a great feel.

The R9 Irons feature an innovative shock absorption system in the longer irons, which utilizes a Soft Feel Foam within the cavity, that is then covered with this multi-material badge. And, behind the sweet spot of the face lies a Localized Silicone Shock Absorber which dampens vibrations and provides a really great feel when you strike the ball.

The R9’s feature an ultra thin 2.0mm face that actually wraps around the top line, and it flexes at impact. It is suppose to act like a driver face in that it flexes and gives you great distance. You can see here where it wraps around the top line. This is a nice, thin, hot face.

The R9’s feature a beveled sole on the trailing edge which helps turf interaction and resists digging when you strike the ball. You can see that they are fairly wide, so they have this nice deep cavity as well as the Inverted Cone Technology on the face. So, these are great irons that are really forgiving, and are meant to provide forgiveness, distance, and accuracy.

As the boys walk around the PGA show talking to all the big brands and seeing what they all have on offer, it looks like there is a common theme: White.

White=Distance?

You have seen the TaylorMade R11. But did you know that Cobra and even Powerbilt have a white driver coming out? Perhaps the engineers at these golf companies know something we don’t, like our mind’s association with color and distance or something.

Most of these bad boys will not be available to the public until around March, but if this Spring we all start blowing our drives over the back fence of our local range, or see our tee shots disappear into the distance, maybe we will know the reason…

Look what some of the boys at the PGA show in Orlando saw inside the Callaway booth: a flipping Lambo!

Callaway X Lamborghini

Callaway and Lamborghini are lab partners this season, partnering to bring us “Forged Composite.” This stuff is claimed to be lighter and stronger than titanium, while delivering faster clubhead speeds.  Currently available in their Diablo Octane driver, the reviews say that forged composite delivers.

What do you think? Would you rather drive a Lamborghini or a Diablo Octane?

We will be blogging direct from the 2011 PGA Show here in Orlando FL today. The PGA Show is the premiere golf show of the year where manufacturers show off their new goods for the upcoming year. With Titleist, FootJoy, PING, NIKE Golf, TaylorMade, Cobra/Puma, and Callaway all being in attendance this year, it should be a well attended and interesting show.

If there is anything specific you want us to checkout … Give us a shout on our GolfEtail Facebook page, and will be sure to let you know what we think and maybe even get a picture or two.

Hi guys, this is Trevor with GolfEtail.com, and today I am going to be reviewing the Tour Edge Exotics XCG-3 Hybrids.

The XCG-3 went off of the success of the XCG hybrids, and improved it using newer and better materials. You can see it has this nice classic shape, but what they have changed is they’ve sued tungsten on the sole, which lowers and deepens the Center of Gravity (CG) giving you optimal trajectories.

The XCG-3 hybrids feature a Maraging Steel cup face that has been fused to the rest of the club. This decreases weight and increases strength, because the welding process is oftentimes heavy and brittle.

The Maraging Steel face is really thin and produces hot ball flights, and it also decreases, or reduces spin, giving you more penetrating ball flights.

These clubs come stock with Fujikura Motore shafts that were built for Tour Edge’s Exotics line. They are gripped with Golf Pride New Decade grips, which are great grips.

Thanks for watching folks, these were the Tour Edge Exotics XCG-3 Hybrids. Jump on our website, GolfEtail.com, and we’ll give you a great deal on these clubs. We have them in both left and right handed, in a variety of shaft flexes, and in lofts ranging from 18*-24*, so find the club you are looking for and we will hook you up! Furthermore, if you join our “Deal Team” email list right there on our home page, you will get good deals, EXCLUSIVE DEALS, emailed right to your inbox weekly, on clubs just like this.
