Recommend a Taylormade rescue

[Mr Soane]

I have in my bag a Taylormade R7 TP 3 and 4 iron, the 3 never gets used and the 4 rarely so I'm considering upgrading to a rescue. Now I am very brand loyal and like the look and styling of Taylormade stuff so would prefer the older R7 or more up-to-date Burner but I'm confused as to which one to get. My understanding of the rescue is thta it is a bit of an 'all-rounder' so is there any entry-level club? I suppose in time I could buy a more lofted or less lofted club if the need arises.

I have the #4 07 Burner rescue. It is a 22* loft. I bought it since I do not have a 3 iron in my set. I love the rescue. It took me about two times at the range to get the feel for the club, but now I am hooked. Some people like them and some people hate them!!

I have an old Hippo steel hybrid but the head is the size of my 3-wood, TM's heads are so small. I've read you hit like an iron, not a wood - correct?

Ya you are very correct buy hitting it as an iron it will get more height and spin. But dont be fooled because although the 3 rescue/hybrid is the same loft as the 3 iron it will go farther because it is a wood. Hence a 4 Rescue would be around a 3 iron, Get Me?

Thanks guys.

Here's an idea for you: a TaylorMade V-Steel 7 wood, 21*. It has a nice clean look at address and really gets the ball up in the air nicely. Nice club for those long par 3s, too.

I had problems at first because I was swinging it like a wood. I soon realized that I should just hit it like a regular iron. After that, the club has worked out really well for me.

I have the '07 Burner Rescue, and it has worked wonders for me.

As you can see from my sig I have bought into rescues as iron replacements, I double up on the six so I have a reasonably long iron for lies that would scratch up the bottom of my hybrids. I love the small heads and very solid feel of the TM hybrids, oddly enough the #3 is the smallest head!
I am also very brand loyal and see TM as the perfect balance of quality, technology and affordability.
