Which Burners in the TM Burner Family?

[djonesax]

I am currently swinging a really old set of Hogan Edge Forged Irons. I am not very consistent with these clubs and would like to get something more forgiving. I recently bought a TM 07 Burner driver and love it. Wow what a difference from my old Big Bertha 11 degree, long and straight. I had such good luck with the driver I figured I would check out the irons. I don’t know much about the different brands and my decision to go with Taylormade is completely on the fact that I had such a good result from the driver. I also have a TM Rossa putter that I really like. I tried many putters and this one felt the best for me.

I like the idea behind the 09 Burners but think they are a little expensive for me. If I were a better golfer I may be more eager to spend that kind of money. I hit them at a driving range and man do they get some air. I don’t think I was more accurate left and right but I definitely got more balls in the air, even on missed hits. With my Hogan’s, the sweet spot is so small that if I get a good hit it almost always goes the same distance. With the 09 Burners the distance was very inconsistent for me. But at least on a miss hit they still traveled some distance.

After the 09 Burners there are the Burner Plus, Tour Burner, and the R7’s that are in my price range. I was thinking about picking up the Tour Burners but they advertise forgiveness with playability. I am not as worried about playability because I am not very good and maybe having something that was more forgiving than playable may be better for me. I can get a really good deal right now in the Tour Burners. I can get a 1 times used set with 4-PW, SW, AW, GW for $400.

So basically I am confused and am looking for some advice on these clubs. The Tour Burners may be ok but I haven’t hit them and have no way to really test them out like I did the 09 Burners. The Tour part of the name scares me a little bit since I don’t have the best swing yet and I want to be slicing all the time.

So pardon the ignorance, any advice would be helpful. I try to talk to the guys in Dick’s but I don’t feel like I get much info that will help me personally. I get mostly propaganda and not advice.

Thanks,
