How can you tell the difference between a fake Taylormade Burner (07) and a Real Taylormade Burner Driver?

I've searched around for it, but no help..

Any response is appreciated!

Thanks!

No idea on those clubs. But I just went through a buying cycle and wanted to get used clubs and tried to figure this out myself. My conclusion was that one of the best ways is to buy from a reputable source. A pro shop a golf retailer or - if eBay - someone with lots of good feedback AND willing to stand behind the purchase (as in will give a complete refund).

I researched this a little when I was looking to buy a club back in the winter.

I had some luck just by googling the club name and the word fake. I found some photos and everything for the particular club I was buying.

I know fortunately manufacturers like Cleveland are putting halograhms on their shafts and club heads in attempt to cut back on some of the knock-offs.

    • Day 27 - 2026-01-16 Played 18 with some of the usual "too many voices" going on when I'm working on swing stuff. Fun to get out in great bay area winter weather.
    • I know one recent college grad who's trying the same thing.  This guy was a Division III All-American, went on to play one year at Division I LSU, and is not working hard.  He won the Gulf States Open, a pro event, and made it to the second stage of the Korn Ferry Tour School late in the fall.  And didn't make the cut to get to the final stage.  I won't talk about swing or play stuff, but I believe there are a couple of things that are essential.  Obviously, talent, and drive, or work ethic.   I can't tell you how to do it, but you HAVE to get through it.  Golf is going to be your life, and it takes lots of work. Two more things that are really critical.  You'll need the facility to be able to practice.  My young friend stayed in Baton Rouge, as a past player on the team he can still use the LSU practice facilities.  And money.  Its unlikely you'll be able to work a full-time job and practice the way you will need to.  You'll probably need backing, from a parent, from a consortium of friends or club members., something to support you. Good luck, its not an easy path, but anything is possible.  Another young man from our area, Mike Brennan, just won for the first time on the "big" PGA Tour.    
    • No one in the world is as smart as Phil thinks he is.
    • Get more comfortable with being uncomfortable. If you don’t like practicing then give up now. You don’t have the passion to become a pro. Unless that mentality changes you won’t do well under stressful situations.    Call the PGA Tour and ask. They probably have resources available.
