I have used this driver (10.5 in stiff flex) since 2009. Two months ago I replaced it with an R9 Super Tri I received for my birthday...and one week ago the Super Tri came out of my bag and the Burner went back in. I dont know why, but I couldn't hit the R9 to save my life. I tried every adjustment on it, but no matter how I tweaked the FCT I hit either high slices or banana hooks on 60% of my shots. I went back to the Burner and my drives went dead straight once again. I'm always looking for the next best thing, and since buying the '07 burner I have tried MANY different drivers from Cobra, Nike, Cleveland, Titleist and Ping...and I have yet to find one that would justify the cost of replacing my 2007 Burner. I love this club!!

Had the R7 but picked this up on E-bay for $118. Best move I ever made. Added about 20 yards but better still it goes straight. Buy one, you will love it

This is simply the best driver I have owned so far. I am 15 years old and used to hit a Hippo which I hit about 200-225 yards. I bought this for $160.00 last year and love it. My drives will go about 275-300 yards now. When I am at the driving range many people will ask me if they can try it out and they cant believe the results from distance to straight. I also own the 2009 models of the Taylormade Burners which are the way to go. Hopefully getting their fairway wood soon! Taylormade clubs are the way to go!

Bought my burner 5 years ago and have not yet been able to fine a driver that plays better overall. I have a 10.5 loft and regular shaft. No screws to adjust. Just grip it and rip it.

The Draw model is not as tall and the head shape is asymmetrical in design. I fight a slice and this club has helped straighten out my drives. I have gained considerable distance on my drives and the club is very forgiving on mi sh$t s. Very positive feedback when you hit the sweet spot with a loud high-pitched ping sound that is very pleasing as the ball jumps off the clubface. I highly recommend this club if you are looking for a new driver.

Picked this up for $289 to replace my 7 year old Titleist driver - what a difference! First swing 265 down the middle (my old driver used to top out 245) by the end of the first round hitting 280 yard drives. Very forgiving, looks great, sounds great- LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT. My swing is horribly fast so went for the 10.5 loft and stiff shaft - Hitting a 9 iron at the green instead of a 6 iron makes a big difference. Superb.

Truly outstanding product. Very straight and forgiving. Hit it 10-20 yards longer than previous club and more importantly, most consistent club in the bag now. Can even draw the ball when desired. Tough to fade if that is important. Worth every penny, especially if you buy (new) on ebay. Saved about $120.00 off retail. Would have never guessed the driver would be this much fun. Good luck!

I purchased this club about 4 months ago. I upgraded from my TM R5. This driver is a dramatic improvement over the R5. I have stopped slicing to hitting it straight or with a slight fade. I was never a long hitter, but I went from hitting the R5 average of 210 to the Burner average of 230 and really pure shots hitting it 250. Never did that before in my life. Distances are accurate as I measured everything with my skycaddie. Because I'm now usually on the fairway, I have lowered my scores by at least 5 strokes. I use a 10.5 regular flex shaft.

Very good driver and the price almost makes it excellent. Closed face can take some getting used to if you have played drivers setting up square or slightly open. The club will give you a little bit more distance than most of the new drivers due to the extra length of shaft (46"), but doubt you will see more then 5 or 10 at most. Extra length of shaft can make it more difficult to control, but if you take it to the range, dial it in, and keep your swing and tempo smooth, it can be a real dependable driver. Shape is a bit different but not annoying, and the sound of the driver is very nice, ear plugs will not be necessary. Like most newer drivers it has a pretty high launch, but once you get used to seeing your ball take off to the clouds you will appreciate the carry this high launch will give you. Again if you are moving up from a driver more than two or three years old, don't be fooled into thinking you need a lower loft than you were using. Ball takes off high but does not balloon, and the reduced spin helps it cut through the air and keep it in the fairway. It would be a 5-star driver only if it could hit all fairways blasting the ball out to the 300 yard marker. Alas I think it will take a 5-star golfer to achieve that goal. To be honest I have not hit a 5-star piece of equipment except for the Bettinardi putter, a true Bettinardi, customized for me by Bettinardi.
