TaylorMade Burner 460 Driver Golf Club

The TaylorMade Burner 460 is beautiful in black with a unique design on the crown that doubles as aiming device. It has a low-profile appearance with new technology aerodynamics. It feels incredibly light, but hits very solidly. The 460 Burner feels like you can generate tremendous clubhead speed, even if you aren't actually doing it. It makes a nice, explosive sound on center impact. The Burner 460 has a very generous sweet spot, so off-center impact results in a relatively low, straight and long drive. Remember, no re-play cameras on "our" courses. How the golf ball got there and what the ball flight looked like are strictly your business. My drives are high, straight and really long--often over 290 yards! Incidently, the slightly closed-face is no obstacle to working the ball--fade or draw. As a side note, the paint on the sole lasts longer than on earlier Taylor-Made Drivers. There is also a Burner 460 Draw Driver for golfers fighting a slice.

The Fujikura Re-AX 50 gram shaft is so light, you'll have to check to ensure club head is still attached. Recently, I had my Burner re-shafted with a Fujikura Fit-On E260 Flex-S shaft. Although it weighs 66-68 grams, the Fujikura E260 is slimmer and it has a mid/high kick point. Now, my drives fly slightly lower than with the Re-AX shaft. Because most factory-installed shafts and grips are cheap, I HIGHLY recommend you get fitted for a custom shaft and grip to maximum your results. After all, the club shaft is "the ENGINE that drives the car." By the way, the factory grip is thin to the point of near non-existence. I like the Golf-Pride DD2 and I love the GripMaster one-piece, Pro perforated leather grip. GripMaster is, by far, the tackiest grip I have used and it feels great. The headcover is huge and difficult to remove/reapply. Many after-market head covers will NOT easily fit it.

I don't miss any of my previous drivers. TaylorMade simply seems to "own the corner" on driver technology these days and the Burner 460 is further evidence of TaylorMade Driver Dominance (TDD). Among drivers today, it may not get any better than this. It's still a great buy and I am not sure any of the newer Taylor-Made Drivers are any longer, more forgiving or more accurate. I hit my 460 Burner as far as I hit my Ping G10 driver.

Buyer Beware!! The club I purchased was a FAKE. A pretty good one at that. If I hadn't been in the golf business for 40 years I probably would have missed it. If you are unsure of the authenticity of your Burner Driver, check with an authorized Taylor Made dealer.

The TaylorMade Burner is a very forgiving high hitting club. The Neutral is much better than the Draw for average to better players. It is surprisingly light for the 46" length. The shaft is 50 grams-lighter than the Average- and definitely keeps the swing weight down. I find that my swing speed is faster when I swing easier with this longer shafted, low flex club. Nice natural draw from the Neutral since the face is very slightly draw biased. Head Feedback is excellent, and even toe and heel hits go further than average. Now is the time to get a great deal on the Taylormade Burner, since the new 2009 Burners are out and TaylorMade has a reputation of greatly depreciating in value shortly after the club is purchased. I picked up a New TaylorMade Burner on EBAY
for over $100....great deal....hits as well as my 2009 TaylorMade Burner.

This is the best club .... I had the driver so found the 5 on line and it was the best decision I ever made. Good shipment, excellent condition. Thanks Marsha

WOW!! I hit my longest drive ever with this club. 330 yards!! It was downhill, but I don't care. I average about 250-275 usually with my Callaway driver. I still can't believe how far this thing goes. After switching to the Burner, I've gained about 10 yards on average drives, and I can really smoke some when my game is on. I was about 7 yards short of the longest drive in a recent scrambles I was in, and I'm usually no where near that stake.

TaylorMade has a winner with this driver. They've lightened that shaft to promote a faster swing speed. They've lengthened the club from front to back, moving the center of gravity back and low to increase the MOI and make the club more forgiving. This also helps launch the ball into the air. The MOI of this club is rated at 5800, just 100 short of the USGA limit. Not only is this club longer than other drivers I've played with, it's also straighter. For a guy like me that means bragging rights (FINALLY)!

There's a reason this TaylorMade Burner Driver ('07 model) is still in stores and maintains it's popularity. Long, forgiving and pleasing to the ear at impact. High MOI and large sweetspot. The slight draw bias helps eliminate those banana balls. No need to come out of your shoes. A good turn with nice tempo and the ball rockets off the clubface. Great club.

Lightweight, firm feel. My drives are noticeably more consistent and seem to be longer. I have not been playing very long but I feel this has helped my game off the tee.

I love this club! Ive actually only played 2 rounds with it and ive already seen a huge difference. I really like that the club is so light and swinging it seems so effortless. I have an upgraded Prolaunch Blue 65-s shaft in mine to get a little more height. I have hit the Burner TP and didnt like it nearly as much. Im giving this a strong recomendation to anyone who is interested in a new driver that is very much affordable!

..I bought 2 burners...excelent clubs-control,feel, distance and even looks !
One was assembled in USA the other China. The China club is probably a 'knockoff'; but, so far, so good. Traditionally the club would be assembled in USA - not China.....I would perfer, at least, to have the club assembled in USA

The driver was just what I wanted. The seller was very quick in shipping the item I bought. It is as exactly I expected. I am driving farther with my Burner. I love it!

used one on the golf course of a friend, and liked it very much, so i bought one. I recently purchase a new taylor made r7 cgb driver and it is not near the driver the burner is and it cost 200 dollaars more. this burner driver is on of the best golf club i have ever owned, and the R7 CGB has got to be the worst

Excellent club with characteristics I was looking for. It also completes my set. Quality of Taylor Made clubs can't be beaten.

I have tried out several drivers and I find this is the best. It fits my eye extremely well.It is very forgiven. I don't understand why they have discontinued making this driver,

I HAVE THE 570 DIVER BY TAYLORMADE GREAT DRIVER SAW THIS ONE AND HAD TO BID ON IT GOT THE CLUB TODAY SUPER CONDITION JUST AS WAS WROTE ABOUT IT

I was truly amazed at the distance,and control I had the first time I took it to driving range.I HAVEN'T HAD ASLICE OR FADE SINCE.In fact I have created a slight draw.Best purchase I have made by far.

TaylorMade Burner is a Excellent Driver I can hit the golf ball a good distant. Retails for 299 at golf stores costco price 189 E-Bay $137.00 Great Price. TaylorMade Burner Looks great and feels great.

I took the new Burner to the driving range and then to the course. Easily added 20 yards to my best drives and although the club head was larger than my previous driver, it was easy to control. Great stick!

Having tested this driver for a national golf publication last September I knew that I had to have one! When you get 15 to 20 yards added to your drive length it no longer becomes a question of "if" but rather "when"! Well, when was early July and I asked myself one question: Why did it take so long??? True to form, I've added those 15 to 20 yards to my drives on every round and you better believe I'd bid on one again if I had to! As I said in my write up for the magazine "WOW!!"

THE DRIVER WAS IN GOOD SHAPE.IT WAS SHIPPED ON TIME.VERY WELL PACKAGED.THE ONLY BAD COMPLETE IS THAT IT DID NOT HAVE A HEAD COVER AND WHY IS THAT?

I have been a Ping man for the last several years using the G5 equipment and I kept hearing about the number of PGA Tour players that used the TaylorMade clubs, so I went to my local golf shop and checked out a TaylorMade Burner Driver. The regular Burner has a 47 inch long shaft in 55g and the face of the driver is 2* closed to help prevent slicing. I normally hit the ball straight to a slight draw so the closed face did not help and when I asked about that the golf shop referred me to the TP model.
The TaylorMade Burner 460 TP version is basically the same except the face is 1* open and the preferred shaft is a 65g shaft with a stiff tip helping with the off center hits. The weighting is also different to give the Burner TP a lower more boring ball flight. The club is a great club abd the technology is truely there, but the only draw back to the TP version is to the person that hits a slight fade or has problems with hitting a slice because with the open face those problems are magnified.
The club is extremely solid with a great pop when you hit the ball and the distance is something. For me this club is approximately 8 to 10 yards longer with a lower ball flight which really gives more distance in windy conditions. I would highly recommend this club, just decide which version is best for your game.

Very lightweight shaft makes it easier to release through the ball. Launch angle is higher than other drivers...maybe too high. Nice sound at impact, solid feeling of ball coming off face. Fairly forgiving as all 460cc drivers.

Just exactly what I wanted and was looking for . In Excellent condition and I am very pleased with the Burner.

I went out to the course right when i got it and it definately helped reduce my draw. I am very pleased with this club. Thank you very much for selling it to me!!
