Did Taylor Made make a driving iron (1-iron) that had a flame/fireball on the sole instead of a number to identify the club?

I've looked through TMs Vintage club listings. The problem is that they don't have pictures of the 1-irons for most of the sets, just a general picture to give you an idea of the overall look. Like I said, the only thing I remember being unique about this club is the flame/fireball in place of the identifying number. Without having a 1-iron picture from all of the sets, I've not been able to figure out whether this club existed or not.

According to TM's website, the only sets it could be from are 01 Forged 300, 95-98 Burner Tour, 91-94 ICW 11 or 5, 91-94 Burner Midsize, or 87-90 TPI. I know it wasn't older than an 87. I've seen the 1-iron from the Burner Tour and the 87-90 TPI, so I know those are not it. Still hunting for a picture of the rest.

It could have also been a stand-alone driving iron, but it doesn't show up anywhere on the iron list, but their wedge sets do, so I'd imagine it would.

Am I crazy or does this club actually exist?

I've been looking for one for ages, but have not been able to find one. I'm starting to believe this club didn't exist.

I am not sure if these are them, but I believe Taylor Made made a set called FireSoles. Maybe that came with a 1 iron that had the flame on the bottom. not sure just a guess.

The Firesole, Firesole Tour, and Supersteel (they all came out at the same time, 1999) weren't available in 1-iron.

Anyone else have any idea what I'm talking about? I've been looking for this club for a couple years and I'm starting to think it doesn't exist.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      Current state of the program.  I can only do 25-50% swing speed, probably under 50% since I was hitting the ball out to the 150 yard marker (yay!),  to get the arms down and somewhat turn the body through impact. I mean somewhat. Arms down + body turn don't like to mesh at all. Anything faster and the body does stupid uncoordinated stuff. Mostly, I am stuck in the old pattern of staling the turn and flipping at the ball.  So, until I see progress. I am not posting anything here.

      Thanks for the video! Do you think a ball between the arms type of training aid would get me in a better position? I also have a Tour Striker Swing Trainer (PlaneMate-like contraption) if that could be helpful.

      There are some little things here and there — the shoulder turn is a bit flat, and the arms move around you a bit too much too. Take a look at this video:

      Ugly elbow in question

      My Swing (Gestate0560)

      By gestate0560 · Posted

      I've developed a serious case of the shanks and difficult to control push fades/slices with my irons lately. I used to draw my irons pretty consistently. I currently most draw driver. Also, I don't like how my elbow sometimes pops out from down the line, especially with driver and/or if I'm trying to hit it harder. I can control the elbow a lot better with irons, but quite difficult to have good contact and speed while controling it on driver.
