Adams Golf began as a simple club fitting and repair shop in the 1980’s. During this time, the company’s founder, Barney Adams, worked on his masterpiece: a club with its head designed upside-down for a lowered center of gravity and a larger hitting surface. This invention became The Tight Lies Fairway Wood. When it was introduced to the market in 1996, Adams Golf went from obscurity to having the largest IPO in the history of the golf industry. Barney Adams’s rags-to-riches story became an inspiration. Today, the Tight Lies is now a staple for golfers worldwide while leading the industry in hybrid and hybrid iron technology. Adams hybrids dominate the Champions Tour. Adams Golf also offers traditional irons along with its hybrids to promote integration of the two for optimal performance. All Adams Golf equipment is designed and tested for maximum durability and innovative engineering.
