TaylorMade Burner Steel v Burner TP (fairway)

[mrobbie]

I'm on the hunt for a 3 wood, and have seen these

Taylormade Burner Steel 15* 3 wood

Taylormade Burner TP 14.5* 3 wood

From what I can see on the TM website, the differences between the 2 are pretty obvious; TP version has no draw bias, smaller head and heavier shaft.

Anyone hit the 2 side by side and have comments on the performance of both?

I preferred the look and weight of the TP model, but have not had a hit of either.

I'm yet to actually try them out on the range.

I guess the other option is the Tour Burner that has recently come out, but its a bit more $$$

Cheers

nobody tried both? I've not managed to find them anywhere to try them out as they are now previous models...

I've hit both, the TP head is much smaller and it actually has a decent shaft. The shaft in the regular model is terrible.

I hit both pretty well off a tee but definitely preferred the TP off the ground.

I used the Taylor-Made TP driver w/ TP shaft along w/ the 17.5 five wood TP. The TP shaft is a regular but seems much stronger that other regulars. If I'm buying Taylor-Made, I'm looking hard at the TP models. Also, the sound of the TP clubs is SOLID which is good for the mental side of the swing.
