I'm looking for the above with 9.5 or 10.5 deg of loft and reg shaft....I bought the 3 wood recently and if the diver works as well, I'll be a happy man......anything out there?

I saw a 12.5* BUL driver today and it looks very sweet 8)

How do the fairways play as I am looking for a higher lofted driver.

The fairways are incredible. Seriously. If you want something that is forgiving and can get the ball up in the air (unlike that Mac 4W :shock: ) this is it.

I gave Walrus the hard sell on another forum because he was umm-ing ang ahh-ing about a 3 wood for 6 months. I said buy the BUL and you won't regret it.

The driver is also great. Dunno why I moved on from mine. Should have just reshafted it. It was a great looking High MOI head and as long as anything I have hit. Ah, memories.

As Adlo says he gave me the tip and I owe him muchly! The 3 wood is devine and just goes. You know those great shots that are effortless and come along once in a while? Well the BUL 3 wood seems to be every shot.....I could go on....Its the reason why I'm thinking of getting the driver!

I'll vouch for Aldo's. Quote possibly the best club in his bag.

Adams BUL is the way to go. The RPM's are OK. BUL is better, Ti cup face is the bomb.

Adlo, would you say they launch high, low or appropriate to loft. I am considering a 12.5* :-k

Also does anyone else except Golf Mart sell these in Sydney. They seem pretty pricey for an old model.

Wonder if you can just bully them down on price. Surely it will be difficult for them to clear Adams stock at this time.

perhaps it would be easier to bully in numbers... i wonder if they would give a better price if everyone on ozgolf who is after an older Adams wood bought them in the same order - just a whack idea as they seem pretty difficult to locate elsewhere

globalgolf has a few, don't know what the pricing is like after shipping

Looks like 15 degree only, so unless you want to send your ball into orbit, that option is probably out.

there's a 12.5deg used driver on there and then a 13deg 3+ wood... plus some other drivers with less loft that should keep it within the earth's atmosphere - and some other fairway woods of various lofts

just observations as i have never ordered used clubs from globalgolf

True to loft. I hit a 10.5 and the ball flight was great. Unless the shaft really disagreed with you the 12.5 should be fine. I was seriously considering the 12.5 until I grabbed a 12.5 A3OS in a trade with simmsy.

The BUL was a medium spin head IMO. Similar to my current TM TB.

$55 + $30 shipping = $85US = $130ish.

They appear to have 9.5, 10.5 and 12.5.

I really want to hit the driver before I buy one, but the 3 wood feels soooo nice and its out hitting my current driver so well that I'm thinking its worth a chance! I was even thinking about dumping the driver, buying a BUL 5 wood as my fairway and using my BUL 3 wood off the tee!

Walrus, Adams clubs are underrated, no doubt about it. The BUL FW's feel sweet. I have never hit a driver that "feels" so nice. The Adams drivers still perform great.

I would like to try the driver as I guess I'm expecting the same results as the 3 wood! From what I hear and read I dont think they perform AS well, but still good!

I might just stick with my current driver until I get a chance to try the BUL, but I'm not sure! Its either that or a Vokey LW!

Further to this thread I'd like to see if anyone has a BUL 5 wood to sell? I'm loving the 3wood so much that my 3 iron is on notice and a BUL 5 wood is in my sights!!!

Anyone got one in good condition to sell or I'll just get a new one?
