Model Reviewed:
Burner, 9.5, stiff

Summary:
I am 62 years old with an average game for someone my age. Sometimes in the mid to high 70's but usually in the low 80's. My average drives are fades from right to left edge of fairway, or sometimes a light draw. 250-260 yd distance. This is with my R540. First time using this awesome driver I was killing the ball, with the most beautiful draw to the center and 275 or better each time (several were so close to the green it was scarey). My buddies are all 61-65 and usually down the middle 225-250. I think they are ready to step uo to Taylormade.

Model Reviewed:
Taylor Made Burner 9.5

Summary:
I did not need a driver. I have the Cobra F speed 460 and a Callaway Tour X and like them both. Bought the TM Burner for 140 bucks brand new, took straight to the course to play 9 holes. Used it 3 times. Took off the plastic, one practice swing and let it rip. Result: 275 yards in the middle of the fairway. Second time I swung a little faster and hooked it left. 3rd time, smooth swing 285 yards. Easy club to hit. Looking foward to my next round.Stock REAX shaft seems a great fit. High Soft Draw.

Model Reviewed:
TaylorMade Burner Draw 9.5 Stiff

Summary:
I would describe myself as a typical golf fanatic that has tried alot of different equipment. The bottom line with the Burner is that the added distance comes from the longer shaft. I had to hit alot of balls with different ball positions and different set-ups before I found the best for my swing. If you try to kill the ball, you will have trouble with this club. If you will swing with control and make good contact, the ball seems to fly high but straight. I don't get alot of extra yardage per drive but on a given swing have added 20 yards or so to the norm. The best feature is consistant drives in the fairway. Most golfers who will take the time to fine-rune their swing, will love this Driver and put the ball in great position for second shots. Now that TaylorMade had dropped the price, you can get these at great prices. Definately worth it!

Customer Service:
Had a shaft replaced on a V Steel and it was good as new.

Model Reviewed:
Tour Burner 9.5 Stiff

Summary:
I had the 460cc Burner in a 9.5 Stiff. Loved and hated it at the same time. I hit straight as an arrow looked long and then was disappointed that it only went 240 yards. Considering I was hitting the sweetspot and I measure 98 mph on swing speed I was puzzled. Trajectory was a tad low. With this driver, I get the same trajectory but now it's 35 yds longer. I'm thinking it might be the shaft. But either way, now I'm just flat HAPPY!

Customer Service:
Used Taylor Made Customer service in the past. Very Good

Reviewed by: allanlowe ,  Shoots in the 80s

Model Reviewed:
Tour Burner 9,5 Stiff Flex

Summary:
I had the 2007 Burner, and recently picked up an 08 Tour Burner. Both are excellent drivers. I do find that the Tour Burner feels lighter to swing, despite the 60 gm shaft, and sets up a little nicer. I also find the Tour burner is about 10-15 yards longer, and about equally forgiving. Both are great drivers, but I prefer the Tour Burner.

Customer Service:
I haven't had to use it, I get my service at Golf Town, but haven't had to use it on the Burners.
