Summary: These woods are extremely reliable. If you dial these woods in, put a good swing on them, and they will be right on the money every time. I know for a fact that I hit my 19* 180yds, and my 17* 200*. Came to a 180 yard par three recently, and pulled out the 19*, and stuck the ball within a foot of the pin, leaving me with about a 6ft putt. The really good news about these woods, they are DIRT CHEAP. Guys, if you are looking for something to replace your 2 thru 4 irons, give these woods a try. I think you will really the results.

Summary: What a shame that this club has died unknown and unloved. Truly an excellent fairway wood. No cryptonite sole plugs (read: no moon rockets) here. As others have said, I can only affirm, excellent address optics, wonderful strong trajectory, hard strong cracking feel at impact. I've searched through 3 wood he77 trying to find this stick, and I found it in a reconditioned "junk" pile (still in very nice shape). This one has a Prolite X shaft (which, by the way, is still a very excellent shaft and is a very friendly X flex). After only a month, I have hit half a dozen memorable shots with this club. I'm thinking, especially at the time of this club, that the Adams line was the focus of the higher handicap player, and so an Adams marked "tour" did not get a lot of attention. Well, it has my full attention. Very pleased.

Shoots in the 80s
Model Reviewed: Tight Lies Tour 15 degree Fairway Wood
Summary: In one word, "Unbelieveable!" My bag consists of MacGregor PCB Forged Tour blades, Hogan Wedges, Titleist Bullseye Putter and the 975D Driver. Thought to myself, would Tight Lies fit into my bag? I needed a three wood for the longer par 5's...
In the quest to break 80 consistently, I searched high and low at the fairway woods. Cobra was impressive, Titileist nice but nothing convincing me. So I stumble upon a barrel of Tight Lies woods, the 15 degree Tour Model stood out and $70.00, barely used...hmmmm.
Unbelievable I say. It came with a steel Reg Flex shaft and stock firm grip. Felt very heavy, like my blades and when placed near a ball in the store, offered confidence at address. Nice profile, the Tour Model is the deal.
So I take it to the range and ding, ding ding, the ball explodes 200-225 all night long. I was laughing. Yes a few mis hits, but I could feel them instantly and yes, they were all my own fault. BUY ONE ASAP. I am looking for a 19 degree...

Summary: Great club, great value. Hit it long and straight, off the tee or off the deck. Easy to control. Highly recommend getting one if you can find one on E-Bay.

Model Reviewed: Adams Tight Lies Tour
Summary: I previously played a Taylor Made Mid-Sized 3 wood with the same loft (15 degrees). I immediately picked up 10 to 15 yards of distance with the Adams club (also 15 degree loft). IMO, the true temper EI-70 shaft is the difference. It is likely a better shaft than the typical cheap grafite shaft used in most clubs today. This club was discounted by Golfsmith due to new model year. Works great off the tee (tee the ball low) or off the deck. My only complaint is the original grip. But that was a $2 fix with a golf pride tour wrap. Good choice if yo find one on Ebay.
