Shoots in the 80s Model Reviewed: Taylor Made Burner 9.5 Summary: WOW! What a golf club! Carried it from the range to the tee and felt & saw an immediate impact and so did my buddies. Longer and straighter than any club I have ever hit. Played 36 holes and out of 28 fairways, hit 23. Definetly not the norm for me. Carried the ball 15-20 yards further (280-310) than normal (250-270). Could hit it to any place on the course I wanted. Has to be the best buy for the money! Customer Service: Very Good Similar Products Used: Cleveland Launcher, Taylor Made R7, Nike Sumo

Shoots in the 80s Model Reviewed: Taylor Made Burner Draw 10.5 Summary: I love to read reviews on golf clubs, seems everyone always hits their new driver 10-15 yards further than the old one, not 25-30 yrds only the 10-15. Tell the truth folks. I just purchased the Taylor Made Burner Draw 10.5 Deg Reg/ Flex , it is a killer. I dont hit it any further than my other driver, just more accurate. I also have a Cobra LD M Speed that I hit well, I hit both around 260-265, the Taylor Made is just more accurate near dead center fairway 85% of the time. Nice sound at impact, nice carry and roll, easy to swing. Dont try to overkill it, just smooth and slow. You will be suprised .If you want accuracy then give this stick a try before you buy, you will like it I am sure. You may just get the ever so popular 10-15 yards difference, or less but who cares accuracy is best. Customer Service: Not Used Yet Similar Products Used: Cobra LD

Shoots in the 70s Model Reviewed: Taylormade Burner Summary: I recently took a chance on eBay and bought a Burner 9.5 with the upgrade Aldila NVS shaft in a stiff. I was initially disappointed that it was a carry driver and not a roll driver but I have busted some extremely long drives with it. I have a swing speed of 98 to 100 due to being 58 yrs old and I normally carry max 230 with every other driver I've ever tried. I'm sure I've carried 250 with the Burner not only because of the technology involved but also because you can just flat out swing as hard as you can and this driver goes straight. It doesn't ballon but it also doesn't bore which can leave you at the back of the pack on faster fairways. I tried a guys Cleveland Hibore with the exact same ball I had just hit my Burner and I nailed both of them perfectly with a draw and the Hibore was 22 yards further since it ran a mile and the Burner ran very little. I had tried the Burner with the stock shaft and it was a real floater for me. The shot looks beautiful in flight but some guy who hits an ugly down and dirty drive will still be 30 yds past me. Down and dirty however usually means a lack of direction consistancy and the Burner is near impossible to miss as far as consistancy and accuracy. No duck hooks at all with the Burner where I'd end up with disaster with my Ping G2 with a Fujikura Speeder shaft with the exact same swing. Looking to get a Hibore 8.5 for the courses where I want to bang out a lot of roll and keep my Burner for our tight desert courses where you want to pick a spot and hit it precisely there. Really a fantastic driver you can just rip as hard as you want with great feedback and feel on the solid hits. Customer Service: Have not had to use Similar Products Used: Everything in test situations. You name it.

Shoots in the 80s Model Reviewed: Taylormade Burner Driver Summary: I went to Golfsmith on a mission to find a new driver. After hiting 10 with each I selected the Burner becasue I was hitting it straighteranf further than all the others. I have now used it in 2 rounds since I live in south Florida and can golf year round. I am now hiting 12 out of 18 fairways with an average distance of 300 yards vs. 8 out of 18 at 260 with previous driver. I have since bout the 3 wood and am considering the irons as well.

Shoots in the 80s Model Reviewed: Taylor Made Burner 9.5* Neutral Summary: This club is unreal. I just took it to the range yesterday, and I was bombing drives. I'm 5 foot 7 inches, 130 lbs, and I was hitting the top of the net which is at least 240 yards out. I have to figure it would be landing about 260 on the fly and rolling another 15 to 20 yards. I was worried that the shaft would be too long for me, but it actually gave me more distance than my old Bertha Titanium which had an Aldila Green Shaft in it. I've hit my old driver 300 yards on the course before, but only with a perfect swing, so I can't wait to see what this Burner will do. Now obviously, a lot of new drivers have good distance, but this club was so consistent! I hit it on the middle of the face at least 12 out of 14 swings (I could see the ball marks on the face), and it went straight as all hell! Even had a nice draw with out me even trying to turn my hands over. I would take this club over any R7 model. I've found the R7's have too tall of a face for me, which doesn't look good at address to my eye. The Burner is more shallow, and is really appealing when setting up to the ball. I really like the cool design on the crown too, but I could see it being distracting to some golfers, but it doesn't bother me at all. The ball goes fairly high though, so if you're a better player (Scratch - 5 handicap) who likes a more piercing ball flight, it may be hard for you to keep the ball low. I did hit a few shots from the middle of my stance, and it did bring the ball flight down, but I guess it all depends on how you like your trajectory. You can get a deal on Ebay too. I got mine for $200! Beats Golfsmith's prices anyway. If you don't want to spend anymore than $250 on a driver, I don't think you can make a better choice here. Go test one out and see if it helps your game. Customer Service: I bought the club new off of Ebay, and it came with a sticker on the shaft put there by Taylor Made with the serial number so I could register it on the Taylor Made website. It's nice to know that TM knows I have the club and will replace it if becomes defective for some reason.
