i had the x-22 for two weeks. I didnt like how big the topline was and the sole. They are chucky clubs. There is nothing too special about them to be honest. Your getting the same club as a x-20 or x-18 performance wise.

Im going to purchase either tonight and I found that a set of burners that are about $100 cheaper then the x22's. The x22's are my first choice but Im wondering if its worth getting the burners if they are better?

By the looks of your sig, it looks like you are playing x-22s currently? Also, as a +1.7 handicap, what is drawing you to these two sets?

Ive never hit the burners so I couldnt tell you which is better. I think people like burners more though. Personally I would get the burners over the x22 but thats because I have had exerience with the x-22. With the x-22 I really didnt like short game shots 8,9, pw because they are so big. I had alot of problems with the pw.

I actually have no idea what my handicap is. It wouldnt let me sign up without one and thats the example it listed so I used it haha. My sig has either what I have to what im planning on getting. I have everything except the irons and wedges. I have a mix/match set currently but since im playing more often I decided to upgrade. I was all set to buy the x22's tonight but I found the burner plus's for a $100 cheaper. So now I dont know which to get.

Have you hit either? Have you been fitted? I will tell you that if you are interested in the Callaway clubs, You should look that the x-20's, they are similar and the Maltby playability facor is higher on the x-20's. They can be bought for $399. They would be a great iron set to get you started. Buy the at Golf Galaxy or Golfsmith and they will bend them to the correct lie angle for you.

From Ralph Maltby about the reason the x-20 are more forgiving than the x-22's:

"Callaway has distributed the weight differently on the x-22's, which has caused the vertical C.G. to be raised from .635” in the X-20 to .741” in the X-22. This obviously lost them some MPF points. Some of this is probably due to the new hosel design for their 2009 bore through models. All the other iron specifications for measuring MPF such as “C” Dimension and MOI are similar in both models.

Your signature has 19 clubs in it :)

I'd try and hit both sets and decide.
