as much as i love the shape of the Titleist 904 - i find the Burner far easier to hit.

If golf was about aesthetics, i'd have the 904 in the bag. I would put the Burner in the bag if I needed it right now (getting a new wedge and driver are higher up on my priority list)

As for the utilities, both are excellent clubs - again I find the TM more forgiving but not miles ahead of the Titleist. You're looking at the shafts which is important too - if they suit you then get them.

When looking at woods and utilities, I go with something a little more forgiving. I used to only play the more "serious player" type woods. Now that I went for "playability" I have found that I am more consistent. It just so happens that I ended up with a Tour model three wood as it was the easiest for me to hit.

I am contimplating the same thing as I demo-ed the Titleist and Burner TP fairway woods in a simulator last week. They both feel sweet, but the Burner defs looks easier to hit. Also, the used club racks where I shop are full of Titleist fairway woods if that tells you anything.

    • Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.
    • As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
