The ever-popular TaylorMade Burner Irons are powerful and aggressive looking irons which deliver maximum balls speeds and a high launch without looking overly like game-improver clubs.

They feature a progressive head shape and shaft length throughout the set with the long, middle and short irons all separately engineered to provide optimium MOI and COR for the respective clubs.

Dramatically improved SuperFast Technology means ultra-light shafts and grips reduce overall club weight and increase speed to generate meaningful distance.

A multi-functional sole with beveled edges reduces turf resistance to deliver maximum force to the ball at impact while inverted cone technology expands the area on the clubface that delivers higher ball speed, resulting in more consistent distance from shot to shot.

Progressive face thickness and head shape and size make every Burner iron uniquely powerful.

Both of our guys felt the clubs were really well made and liked the fact the long, mid and short irons were all designed seperately, with the mphasis on different aspects depending on what paticular quality is needed.

So, forgiveness was the watchword in the 4-iron, accuracy the key in the mid-iron and responsiveness in the short-iron.

Sounds very sensible doesn’t it? And our test team believed that it was a policy which very much achieved what it set out to.

John felt that although he put a few ropey swings on the 4-iron, there wasn’t one bad result with them, a real victory for the technology and quality of the Burner.

Meanwhile Richard loved the look of the club at address, noting that they were ideal for the more discerning golfer who didn’t want to have a great big chunky set but without losing any forgiveness.

And, while the performance of the 6-iron was brilliant, it was the ease of use of the 4-iron that helped elevate the Burner past some of the other clubs in this category.

The longer stick felt almost as forgiving as the 8-iron, effectively removing the fear from tough approaches from range. A valid recommendation if ever there was one.

2010 Review:

TaylorMade engineers have designed the short, mid and long irons separately. The short irons concentrate on accuracy and precision, the mid-irons on distance while the long-irons are all about forgiveness. Alex, Colin and Craig all  commented on how nice the irons looked at address, and they certainly weren’t too chunky when it came to topline thickness. Craig thought they felt heavyish but this was a positive because they felt powerful. Colin commented on the fantastic feel. Alex felt they might appeal to better players as well as game improvers due to a sleek design and he also commented on the impressive level of feedback.
