i am fairly new to golf and want to purchase a iron set. I am looking at the 09 taylor made burners. I have a problem though, i am only 5'2. I have only played four times with my friend who plays for the school. My last game i shot a 90 he told me i was playing great. I really liked it so now i am looking in to a set of clubs as i know this is something im obssesed with. These are supossed to be very forgiving which is one of the main reasons im looking at them.If anyone has any experience with these or another set that may be good for me your input would be much appreciated, thanks.

I would strongly suggest you to do club-fitting, if you really into the game and plan to keep playing for quite a while. It takes a little time and money, but it's great for your overall game in the long-run. Consult with a pro or good club maker and let them recommend clubs that are right for you. That's the best way to start playing.

Otherwise, you will have to find time and go through some trials and errors experimenting with clubs out there.

Good luck.

i used them in the indoor range hitting into the net at academy, i felt very comfortable with them even though they were to long. I was thinking i could buy a set and have the shafts changed to fit me. Would that be a possibility.

I bought a set of the 09 Burners, played them once and sold them. They were nice enough, but not any better than the Wilson Staff CI7's I was playing at the time (and am still playing).

If I were you, I'd look at the iron tests, hot list etc... from 2/3 years ago and see if any of those irons catch your eye. You'll be able to find them on close-out sites, ebay etc... for a lot less money.

Your height won't necessarily affect the length of irons you play.

I saw a wilson prostaff set there. They had a whole set and felt very good. They were really light which, i like and a whole set ran around 300$

09 burners are great... but it takes a few weeks to hit em right. My 4-6 iron shafts are slightly longer than my old Titleist 804 OS irons. This is my 2nd set of irons so I recommend a used or discounted set first while you're new to the game.

Wilson Staff and 'ProStaff' are different animals. I'd stay away from the ProStaff stuff. You can find the Di9's and Ci7's pretty cheap on ebay. If you stay 2 or 3 years behind the latest and greatest, you can pick-up clubs inexpensively.

I got my Burners last year and my game (especially iron play) has steadily improved. Last year I shot anywhere from 85-90. This year I worked it down and my last 3 rounds have been 75,78 and 79.

I am 5'4". I can tell you from experience, get fit. You won't believe how it will help your game. I hit my clubs well before they were cut down, but even better now that they are a more appropriate length.

I've been playing my 09 Burners since last Sept. It is true that they take a little getting used to but I've never played a set of clubs that didn't. I don't think I've ever played a better set of irons in my life. You can't go wrong with Taylor Made. Get a fitting by a pro, it doesn't cost any more than a set off the shelf and they'll fit you (very important) especially for a beginner. Remember this..... Have fun and enjoy the game and if you forget this.... have fun anyway.

    • I don’t measure my intake either. I generally have a black coffee, a bottle of soda, some sweet tea at home, and anything in between is water. An ice cold bottle of water is one of my favorite things. It feels like an immediate refresher for my body. I’ll admit that I need to drink a little more though. 
    • For such a nice membership, there have been some bad incidents in the past few years.  We had someone voted out a couple of years ago over something he did and he harassed the board members for three months until he moved out of the area.   Generally they’ve tried to do things like tournament handicaps and identify certain people who they know should be lower and adjust it somehow.  I can understand not wanting to go thru something like the guy who was voted out again i emailed the pro who forwarded it to the handicap committee.  They are going to see what can be done.  I walked someone thru what happened and they are going to nudge him to post the score from the match and see what he does.  Since he didn’t put anything in the electronic scoring past 13, based on how he played 14 and 15 plus having to take bogey on 16-18 for after he left, he should post 83.  We’ll see if it’s even higher,   Since he was really even thru 13, then doubled 14 and parred 15 my guess is he really shot 75 being generous and giving him 2 pars and a bogey on the three holes he didn’t play.    i shot 88, getting 16 shots for my course handicap which is net even and I lost on 13.  We do brackets where handicaps should be within 4-5 of each other.  Most matches only have 1-2 shots as a difference between players  neither of us posted the score yet.  There was something in the match play rules about whether or not to post your score.  I couldn’t remember if we were supposed to or not.  I don’t think he was going to post that, because even with his inflated score it would be the lowest score in his recent 20. Lucky I didn’t because they want to see what he does post and they don’t want me posting so he can try to calibrate his score.
