'09 Burner Summary:
No place to review these, so here goes...
Best irons I have ever hit, and by a long way. The 2009 Burner irons are in a class by themselves. I am a club junkie, but really just trying to find the perfect sticks... for me. I have owned well over 100 sets of irons over the last 3 years. Many good ones... ONE great one.
Mine have the 85 gram Burner steel in S flex. Standard length (1/2" over). I think this makes them a little upright, probably at least a blue dot in Ping terms. I did not get 20 yards more per club, in fact they fir into my standard expected distance, but with a smoother swing, which is great... maybe they push the edge by being a bit longer, but as I got used to them, I just reduced the tempo a bit to get the distance I was looking for... or nuked it to get the extra 5-10 yards if necessary... a great option.
Outstanding balance, feels like a slightly heavier swing weight, probably a D1 or 2 (have not checked).
These are amazingly forgiving and straight, but will work it if needed.
Grips are not outstanding, but much better than the TM stock grips of the past... good enough to go for a season before putting on your favorites.
My set is 4-AW, got them off Ebay for around $425 new... great deal. I would not mind getting the SW and use a #2 hybrid lead taped for lift (It is a Rapture knock-off by Giga Golf).
The top lines are medium, but the way TM finishes them, they have a thinner look than they really are... good stuff!
Well worth a test drive if you are looking... might not be YOUR perfect irons, but they are for me.
Luck! Customer Service:

Most everything. Tried all of the newer models, nothing rang out. Next best are the Callaway X-14 Pro Series. Cobra FP is a good iron too.
