He leased a 6,000-square-foot building and hired two employees. The company initially offered just one club: a 12-degree stainless steel driver. It was designed by Adams to have a wood made out of metal and to hit the two-piece balls that were a fad at the time, but have since become the norm. The metalwood, also called the Pittsburgh Persimmon, was first developed by Adams but did not begin to gain wide acceptance over traditional woods until the early 1990s.
Adams displayed his metalwood at the TaylorMade booth at 1979's annual PGA Merchandise Show in Orlando, Florida, and numerous orders were placed, totaling more than $47,000.
