Looks the part......

Handicap 10 - 15
The New Burner Driver replaces the Super popular Burner Driver of last year. How will it stack up? Aesthetically it looks even better! It now has more a a triangle head like the CGB Max Driver plus the shaft length is 46.25" to give you that extra oomph! Taylor Made has a winner in the Burner Driver.

Handicap 20-30
I went from the R5 to the R7 and now to the New Burner. My distance went from 250 to 290 to 335. I know the lessons and practice is part of the increase, but the Burner made an instant difference. I tried the new Ping G15 and there was no comparison. The Burner was 30-40 yards longer, consistantly.

I am senior golfer with a 15 handicap. What flex shaft would you recomend for the taylor made burner driver with the senior flex.I would also like to add a few extra yards to my drive.
My ball speed is around 138-140mph. For the stock shaft of the Burner 09 10.5, should I go to regular or stiff?
thanks.

That ball speed typically comes from a club head speed in the mid 90's which can go either way into stiff or regular. If you get the chance to try them both you may benefit from being able to see the difference.
I am left-handed and i slice a little. I have an Acuity driver now. Do you think the the 09 Burner could straighten my drives

The 09 Burner is a hit MOI driver therefore should increase your accuracy over your current driver. You still may have a slice however it shouldnt be a severe with the Burner.
I've been told by 2-3 sources (golf shops, reps at demo days, etc.) that the high trajectory burner is 13 degrees loft. I just read on this sight that it is 15 degrees. Can you tell me which it is f

Mike,
Thanks for your email. I looked on our site but didn't see the 15 degree notation. After checking out www.taylormadegolf.com they list it as 12 Degree. Sorry for any confusion.
Thanks,
Johnny
Hello,
I understand most drivers come in a 10.5 and 9.5 degree loft. I use a 10.5. When teeing off, my ball usually has a lot of loft and goes really high in the air, should I switch to a 9.5 degree

Thank you for your question.
Is it worth testing out? Absolutely. Will the 9.5 give you a more penetrating ball flight is the question. Most golfers would kill to have more hang time but I know how you feel. I was in the same boat at one time and tested different lofts much like you. I ended up staying with the higher loft though. I would test it prior to officially making a move.
Play Well,
Johnny
The higher loft will also be more controllable of the tee..

If you are not a low handicap golfer, where you play can make a lot of difference in driver loft choices. In the northern US. especially on the plains, wind can be a huge factor in driver loft effect. We have 160 yd par 3's where 10/12 handicap golfers are using drivers straight into a 35 mph wind. I use a 9.5 TM Burner draw. But I have a Titlist 10.5 I take to Phoenix (low or no wind) and FL (tree lined courses). High trajectory on windy links courses can really beat you up with a high loft. //

In general, the 9.5 degree will tend to give a lower ball flight. However, the shaft also contributes to launch angle. Find a Golf shop that has a simulator that can measure your swing path, launch angle, club-head speed, ball speed, spin and distance. With this information, your Pro can tell you if you need a different club, or just a new shaft.
my avg swing speed is about 80 to 90 . what would be the best Shaft Flex for me
A
05/25/2009 8:53 AMGolfballs.com Employee: Johnny
Thank you for your question.
You would fall in the 'Regular' flex category based upon your swing speed.
Please let me know if you have any other questions.
Thank you,
Johnny

06/15/2009 3:17 AMLow Handicap Golfer: Jamie
You're definitely a regular flex
Senior flex starts from 70-80
Regular is from 80 to about 100
Stiff 100 to 115ish
X-stiff 115+

My driver swing speed is 90mph, straight ball flight, and using the Burner driver, I need a stiff shaft. With the regular I do not have the same control as with the stiff shaft and distance is almost identical. Try one out on a range or on a monitor. Swing speeds do not always reflect the correct shaft for your swing. It's only a generic number but is a good starting point.
I have used the YS-6 shaft in the 905T and the FT-i with pretty good success. Can you name me a couple other shafts that you think would give me the same "feel" and control? Thanks.

Thank you for your inquiry. There are a few other brands that have similar weight and launch profiles of the Graphite Design YS series. You should notice that the Aldila NVS 65, the Graphalloy ProLaunch 65, the UST V2 67, and the Fujikura E360 are all very comparable.

i have the graphalloy prolaunch 65 and it works great!is is very flexible.
What is the difference between the brand name shafts that you offer with the new 09 burner. IE: RE*AX Superfast 49, Aldia VS Proto 65, NV-65 and Graphite Design YSQst 65. Also the best or normal lof

Thank you for your question. The custom shaft offerings are offered for golfers looking to fine tune their game. The REAX shaft made for Taylor Made is a shaft geared strictly for high ball flight and increasing your club head speed at the 49 gram weight. The custom shafts are considerably heavier which will help you control your ball flight more. The mentioned shafts in your question are all of the 65 gram weight. Some of the shafts boast stiffer tips or provide lower torque outputs to maximize
I bought the TaylorMade R7 Draw, and I still slice the ball to the right. Why is this. Thanks
A
05/05/2009 2:00 PMGolfballs.com Employee: Andy
Thank you for your inquiry. The R7 draw you purchased is designed to help reduce your tendency to slice or promote the effect of a draw if at all possible. The draw driver will not eliminate your slice, it will only help you reduce it.
How does the '09 burner driver compare to the tour burner driver?
A
04/25/2009 11:23 AMGolfballs.com Employee: Andy
Good question. The 09 Burner is designed to increase ball speed and distance with the "efective" MOI at the highest possible setting while the Tour Burner will offer slightly more ball control while keeping distance to a maximum. For additional inquiries, please feel free to contact us at 1-800-372-2557. Thanks!
My avg club speed was measured to be 108 mph , should I be looking at a extra stiff shaft
A
02/24/2009 2:00 PMGolfballs.com Employee: Andy
That clubhead speed is considered to be high enough for an extra stiff. Typically speaking, anyone who can swing their driver 105+ should be in extra stiff.
Great Question. Everything is subjective to your swing though. Do you tend to swing slower or more quickly? The rule of thumb is that if your swing speed is slower than 95mph then you should probably get a regular flex driver and if your swing is over 100mph then you should probably get a stiff flex driver. That leaves a little grey area that you from 95 to 100 where you can use either flex.
I hope this helps.
