Bloomberg Buisness Report today By: Matt Townsend.

Adams Golf Inc., the golf club seller that today said it hired Morgan Stanley to review strategic alternatives, may consider among its options a sale or starting a dividend, Chief Executive Officer Chip Brewer said.

Potential suitors for Plano, Texas-based Adams include Callaway Golf Co., Nike Inc. and Adidas AG, said a person familiar with the matter, who declined to be identified because the discussions are private.

Adams Golf, founded by Chairman Barney H. Adams in 1987, boosted sales 14 percent to $97.4 million in the 12 months ended Sept. 30. After posting a net loss of $12.2 million in 2009, the company has made money in six of the past seven quarters. The shares, which gained 37 percent last year, rose 4.3 percent after the close to $6.58 at 6:32 p.m. in New York.

“We are going to go through with a process that best helps shareholder value,”

Brewer said today in a telephone interview.

Morgan Stanley, based in New York, advised Fortune Brands Inc. last year on the sale of its Titleist golf unit to a group led by Fila Korea Ltd. for $1.23 billion in cash.

The review may not result in a transaction, Adams said today in a statement.

According to a thread on GolfWRX one writer says:

Who’s buying Adams? I’m guessing Under Armour. Golfbiz is reporting Adams is for sale. My question is who’s the players? Under Armour was a rumor on Titleist/Acushnet, could they be interested in Adams now, who’s gotta be cheaper that the Titleist acquisition. Ideas?

TaylorMade MySpider Tour and Tour X: More customizable build options now available

TaylorMade Golf’s MySpider program underwent a substantial overhaul over the last month. Firstly, the company launched the option to customize the Spider ZT model, and now the program has returned with the MySpider Tour and MySpider Tour X.

The revamped page now gives golfers complete control over every visual and functional detail of their putter on the popular Tour and Tour X head, with every cosmetic idea thought of. In MySpider Tour, golfers can choose from four head finishes, 16 paint fill colors, nine Surlyn face insert colors, three aluminum insert options, six sightline configurations, and four hosel options — L-neck, small slant, double bend, center shaft. Six sightline options are available in MySpider Tour, including the optically engineered True Path alignment system. MySpider Tour X gives builders the option of four head finishes, four hosel configurations, and five sightline options, also including True Path alignment.

One of the more interesting features of the new MySpider program is the availability of three distinct face insert options. Along with the usual Surlyn Pure Roll insert trusted by Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy, which can be customized from nine colors, golfers can now also select firmer options. Two are offered with the black aluminum Pure Roll insert, slightly firmer than the traditional insert, or for the firmest feel, golfers can choose from two colors of milled aluminum inserts.

Another fun addition to the MySpider Tour is the ability to use the “Tommy Sightline.” The custom alignment aid design, which was first drawn onto Tommy Fleetwood’s putter by PGA Tour Rep James Holley, is based on the milled sightline on his Spider ZT head. There are five shorter lines on the left and right of a longer central line serving as the traditional short line alignment aid.
