TAYLORMADE Burner Iron Set 4-GW with Steel Shafts
TaylorMade Burner Irons 4-GW with Steel Shafts Every element of the TaylorMade Burner Irons is engineered to work with the next to promote more speed and more distance. The 2009 Burner irons offer longer and more consistent distance in every iron with more distinct distance-gaps between long- and middle-irons. The long-, middle- and short-irons were separately engineered so you get long and forgiving long-irons, long and accurate middle-irons and accurate and responsive short-irons. Inverted Cone Technology offers an extra-large sweet spot for added forgiveness on off-center hits for greater distance consistency from shot to shot. A multi-functional sole creates a low CG (center of gravity) position while reducing turf-drag and promoting the exceptional playability of a thin sole while the multi-material cavity badge dampens vibration and sound to promote extraordinary feel. Features: Improved SuperFast Technology promotes immense distance High COR (coefficient of restitution), h

the title says it all these clubs have so much forgiveness and workability. they are extra forged (i dont knowif that even exists) taylormade found a way to do it after hitting mizuno forged clubs for a while i thought those were good but these knock them clear outof the way.

Looks Great But Hits FANTASTIC
Date: September 10, 2009
I purchased these clubs after using and loving the R7's...these clubs put the R7's to shame in not only distance but more important workability and solidness (yes I made up that word) If you want a club that will make you better...then purchase these.

THE set!
Date: September 10, 2009
Purchased the 4-AW in stiff steel shafts this year, and wow have they made a difference to my game! I had previously played the Nike CPRs in reg steel. I demo'd X-22s, CG7s, and some Mizunos. The Burners were far and away the choice. These irons for me were almost 20 yards longer for each club. I was hitting my old 8 iron 140ish, now I can squeeze it out to 160. I feel like I actually hit my irons the normal man distnace, if that makes any sense. Literally shortened the whole golf course, and increased confidence. I put my old 4 and 5 hybrids in the garage, and now hit the 4-5 irons. These are a heavy club, which I love, they feel like they will just drop into the slot. The face is so hot and forgiving, you will feel like you can't miss. You search is over! (12 handicap - 33 yrs old)

I bought this set as my first "real" set of golf clubs after 6 years of low dollar clubs or hand me downs. I tested all brands for weeks until I fell for the burners. The technology of these clubs is phenominal! Your distances remin true and accurate with a crisp feel to every shot. The A-wedge (attack mode) is the best club to clean up the short shots. 4 iron takes a little learning but with a 5 iron going around 200, I'm not complaining.
Pros: Quality, Easy to Use, Durability

Decent Clubs
Date: August 27, 2009
I made the switch from Ping i5's to the Burners back in April. I have +1/4" (I am 6'1" tall) stiff shaft, +1 degree upright specs. I usually shoot in the low 80's. So far, I have had mixed feelings:
Pros: The clubs are easy to use thanks to the progressive forgiveness. For this reason alone, I would suggest any mid-handicapper to use these if they still struggle hitting longer irons. I also hit the Burners about 5-10 yards further than my old clubs.
Cons: The irons are longer than other models and take some getting used to. It encourages a flatter swing plane. In addition, the clubhead is larger/heavier and takes more effor to swing down, especially if you have a large swing like I do (my backswing tends to go a little past parallel). A flatter swing and a heavier club head have caused me to hit thin shots, which was never a problem for me before. Another problem is the quality of the club - I have broke my 9 iron twice so far on standard shots from the fairway/tee box. The first time I broke the club I had to wait 3 weeks for Taylormade to fix it (for free since it is still under warranty). Now, less than a month after getting it back, I broke it again. I'm not saying that every set will be like this but I am questioning the quality of the clubs.
Overall, the ease of use should make this set appeal to most golfers, but it is not for everyone. If you already have a problem with flat swing planes or topping the ball, stay away. I will probably stick with this set although if I had to do it over again I would probably have waited for the Ping i15's to come out.
Pros: Easy to Use
Cons: Durability

I bought the 09 Burners after much research and although I use to play alot not so much anymore, i am not one on hype about EQ. I have to say I had old golfsmith "tour cavity forged" irons for 10 years. I said if I want to get more out of the game let me try "tech".I bought these 2 degrees up all else standard. I have to tell you WOW only one round proved the result 1 club further at least and spot on as long as you hit them reasonably towerd the center!! I was hitting where I wanted if you are thinking of investing $$ I bought 5-thru SW and used my old woods etc you will not be disappointed

Burner '09s
Date: July 19, 2009
These irons are awesome. Had them custom fitted with a -3 degree and took them out yesterday for the first time.....no driving range time at all. Had a few miss hits on the first couple of holes as I was getting used to them, but they all went dead straight, just short. Once I got the feel for them, ridiculous!!! Ive never hit an 8-iron so far! AND Ive never made it through a round without slicing a single iron shot before. The touch on the short irons (PW/AW) is fantastic. The added length versus my old clubs and the improved forgiveness took 10 strokes off my normal score. Had my lowest round ever the first time out with them, a 95.
Pros: Quality, Easy to Use, Good Value

Great Clubs
Date: July 6, 2009
Had an older set of Taylor Mades and ended up selling them when I injured my hand. Once I discovered I would be able to play again, started my research. These clubs are amazing. They seem longer than my old taylor made clubs and so far I am hitting them straighter. I would recommend these clubs to anyone. Great clubs!

Amazing clubs, good value!!
Date: June 25, 2009
I bought these clubs last Sunday and I have since played them 4 times. I cannot get over how good of a value these clubs are and how completely helpful the sales staff at the Golden Golfsmith store were. I ended up hitting these clubs off the mat in the store (which I HATE!) and they felt pretty good off the mat so I decided to make the purchase especially bveing that they had a 90 day gaurentee so that if I wasnt happy with the clubs I could always exchange them for something else.
I had originally though about getting the R7 irons which were about $300 cheaper and I am soo soo glad that I spent the extra $300 THESE CLUBS ARE AMAZING!!!!
My first real test was after teeing off at the Copper Mountain golf course and then being about 150 out is when I finally got to use them on the course they did nothing but make me smile and not regret spending the money on these clubs at all!! Super value even though they are a little expensive its the best set of irons I have ever hit in my life!

I love these clubs and would definitely recommend them to anyone who is looking for an amazing set of irons and if you live nearby Golden Colorado I would definitely recommend going to see the guys at the Golfsmith store there as they are very very friendly and very knowlegable and helpful!! Amazing job guys!!! Ill be back soon!!!
Thanks for everything!!

Simply Awesome

I owned a set of the Nike Slingshot's that I really enjoyed but got to the point where they were not going to get me over that last hump. (my goal is to be a single handicap by the end of the summer) I test drove a bunch of clubs but kept coming back to the Burners. First time out on the course I knew I made the right choice. The contact is very pure and I am getting a club to a club and a half more yardage with a great trajectory and ball flight. Standing over the ball I have a lot more confidence and now I may get to my single handicap goal a little sooner.

Make me a winner
Date: April 20, 2009
Bought this iron last week(14 April) 5-SW with NS950 steel shaft, use it at the range few times and for my local club monthly medal tournament on 18 April. Thank God, after so many monthly medal that I'd participated, finally Iam the champion!! No kidding. The Burner iron really deliver and accurate especially 9-7 iron. I par almost all the par 3 and in total got 7pars and nett score of -6 under. Finally I feel my investment in new iron was worthit and confident that my handicap will finally come down.
My local club is not and easy course to play as all holes have OB, and almost all the greens are elevated + one island green.
The 5 iron is a bit longer than the normal 5 iron and need more practice to get use to it. My previous iron is Callaway Big Bertha.

Me likey!!!!
Date: April 3, 2009
Just bought these a couple nights ago so I haven't had a chance to use 'em on a course, yet, but I spent an hour+ at the range with 'em and notice a HUGE difference over my previous clubs. Good shots feel great. Shots off the toe seem pretty forgiving. Great build quality; swings just feel right. Oh, and did I mention LONG? Yeah, these easily add at least 10 more yards to every swing. I was hitting the 8 as far as I usually hit my 7! You can't go wrong with the price, either. Thanks to cheaper manufacturing costs, what normally would be an $899 set, $699 is a bargain for these new babies! About the only con I can think of is the weight. They seem a bit heavy, to me. That could be good for control, but may be a pain for newbies. It's just a minor thing, though.
Pros: Quality, Easy to Use, Good Value, distance, control
Cons: weighty

WOW!
Date: March 17, 2009
I just got these last week and have played 3 rounds. These irons are long long long. my buddies were all in disbelief how I was sticking all the par 3's.I am hitting these clubs10-15 yards longer than my titleist ap1's. At address these clubs exude confidence. And when hitting the sweet spot these bad boys shoot off the face.
My advice is if you are looking to add distance and accuracy go get these today.
