Adams Golf Lives At The Biltmore Championship Asheville

Even though the FedEx Cup is over for 2026, there is still a lot to pay attention to on the PGA Tour during the fall events, including this week at The Biltmore Championship Asheville, where players are looking to maintain status while also taking home some serious cash.

One of those players is tour veteran, TGL Jupiter Links team member and TV commentator, Kevin Kisner...it's quite an impressive resume, to be fair.

And another thing Kevin can add to his list of accomplishments this week in Asheville is keeping the Adams Golf brand alive on the PGA Tour by having an original 20-year-old 22° Adams Idea Pro in his bag.

Of all the areas of the bag where players seem to hold onto clubs the longest, it's the higher-lofted fairway wood, hybrid, and driving iron category for clubs between 19° and 23° of loft. The reason is that they're built to go a specific distance, and once players get used to that flight, it's hard to switch.

On top of that, unlike with drivers or wedges, which can either eventually go over the limit for speed (drivers) or have grooves wear out (wedges), driving irons and hybrids specifically have thicker faces that can't get worn out in the same way.

This is why we see players like Brooks Keopka and Tony Finau still holding onto their Nike Vapor Fly Pro driving iron.

Plus I cant forget to mention Brooks is also still using a TaylorMade M2 Tour fairway wood from 2016 (above), and Justin Thomas is using a Titleist 915FD from 2015 too.

It just goes to show that if you've got a old hybrid or fairway wood in the bag and it's working as it should, it's better to let sleeping dogs lie, which for University of Georgia Kevin Kisner should be easy because he's got that dog in him.
