TaylorMade continues its long-running standard of excellence with the men's Burner 460 Ti driver. The driver is distinguished by the company's SuperFast technology, which reduces the total club weight to 299 grams from an average of 320, thereby promoting a faster swing speed and more drive-crushing distance. By building a driver that players can swing faster--and that delivers a higher average ball speed on mis-hits--TaylorMade has increased a player's distance significantly from shot to shot, making it more fun than ever to bomb it off the tee. The driver's advanced bullet-shaped clubhead, meanwhile, incorporates a far-back CG location to launch the ball high and super deep. Although the bullet shape looks sleek and slippery, the actual aerodynamics don't affect clubhead speed. However, because the Burner looks fast, golfers gain the confidence to believe that they can, in fact, build faster clubhead speed during the swing. Add in Fujikura's SuperFast RE*AX 50-gram shaft--which is exceptionally lightweight and stable to promote greater distance and accuracy--and you have an ideal driver for virtually any course. The Burner's combination of a large head, sleek shape, longer length, and lighter swing weight work together to make this the fastest driver TaylorMade has ever created in terms of potential clubhead speed and ball speed.
Other details include TaylorMade's inverted Cone Technology, which produces a highly effective Moment of Inertia (MOI) that exceeds 5,800 yet still conforms to USGA standards; a massive 460cc clubhead; an extra-sturdy titanium body and face construction; and a 46-inch club length.

I love this driver. I hit the ball straighter, about 20 yards farther, and best of all my back doesn't hurt as bad after a game. This is because the club swings itself...it has a very friendly weight distribution and sends the ball soaring. I got the 9.5 with the stiff shaft.

I recently purchased the Burner after having not hit driver for many years because of a slice. I must say that I am very pleased with the Burner as I have added fifty (50) yards or more as compared to the three-wood that I was hitting and my slice has not returned. I am now the envy of the other members of my standard four-some and two of them are looking into getting a Burner. The best news is that, based on my results with the Burner, I have moved up a flight in my golf league.

This is amongst the easiest drivers to hit that I have ever had. If this driver has an Achilles heel, it's that you shouldn't over swing with it. Swing easy and through and this driver will take you down the center of the fairway. It plays accurately; i.e., if you purchase a 9.5 degree, it will give you the corresponding trajectory. Nice club for the mid to low handicap golfer.

I bought this burner a month ago, second time on the course I had 5 >280 drives! One is on the green, another is less than 2 yards on the edge, the 3rd is about 10 yards from the green! I tried big bertha for about two months before I bought burner, both are good, but burner gives me extra 10 to 20 yards.
