Is the Taylormade tour burner supposed to be harder to hit than the regular taylormade burner?
I’m going to be hitting them, but I want to know if I should hit the tour burner or not, I’m about a 10-15 handicap, and want to know is the tour burner supposed to be hard to hit, because it says tour, but I see there is a tour burner tp so I’m not sure, does anyone know?
Well is the tp tour burner really hard to hit then?
There are at least four TaylorMade Burners:
1. The Taylormade Burner – $299
2. The Taylormade Burner TP – $399
3. The Taylormade Burner Tour – $399
4. The Taylormade Burner Tour TP – $599
In general, the Tour models are gonna be a little harder to hit, especially if you tend to slice. The reason for this is because the Tour models have a slightly open face (probably 1-2 degrees open). The non-tour burners have a slightly closed clubface, which promotes a draw and can add a little distance on well-struck shots (a shot with the slightest hint of slice will not benefit from any added distance).
The TP models have upgraded shafts and grips, and have the option for a clubface with lower loft. The regular burner is the only model that has the option of a 13 degree face, which is alot of loft for a driver and desireable for golfers that have trouble hitting drivers.
The Tour models are all made with titanium, which is lighter and more expensive. They Tour models are also only 450cc compared to 460cc for the non-Tour models. This is because pros prefer a slightly smaller club head which allows them to shape shots easier.
All in all, the tourt models are definitely nicer clubs. Since you are a 10-15 handicapper, I would say that you would really benefit from the upgraded shaft in the TP or Tour models. However, you really ned to get fitted for a shaft in order to benefit from the upgrade. The shaft really makes all the difference. Optimizing my shaft added 20-30 yards to my drives. Honestly, its really all about the shaft. The right shaft on a lesser clubhead will go farther than a premium clubhead on a poorly optimized shaft.
Having said all that, I would really recommend looking at the Cleveland HiBore XL. They just came out with the XLS and you can pick up the older XL for $150 now. The HiBore comes with a simple option of a red shaft(lower launch) or gold shaft (higher launch). You can hit the exact same club with each shaft and figure out wich one you need. Also, if you happen to live in an area that is frequently windy, the HiBore does exceptionally well in the wind.
