I am going to get a club for a friend for his birthday to replace an 07 Burner. He's been wanting something with a stiff shaft (plays a reg currently). I was looking at the R9 and the Burner Superfast. Except for the face adjustments on the R9 is there anything to recommend one over the other?

If I was your friend I'd want you to get me the Burner Superfast. I prefer the sound off the face better and I really enjoy the clubhead shape. I also like the shallow face look and to me the superfast is just more appealing than the R9.

R9 without a doubt.

it looks brilliant, I played with a guy who had one. He could hit the 3W as far as his driver.

If he has a Burner driver would he want to stick with the Burner series?
I'd prefer to have the R9 as I like its shape better but it's personal taste

      Day 36: back to some mirror work tonight. Need a bit more forearm roll in my feels to help with the shallowing.

      _sigh_ so close to red text.  Went away for three days, but didn't do a practice morning-of-departure (Friday) nor evening-of-return (Sunday), so I had three misses, back to day one. Day 1, May 4 2026.  At home today, spent nearly an hour in my practice room, hitting about three dozen practice balls, primarily with my 6-iron.

      Width at P4 Has Downstream Effects on P6 and P7

      I would think of it in terms of time. The time it takes to get the arm angle into a good position to deliver the club with proper shaft lean. Another component is rotation, but that is also a matter of timing. It relates to how the body stalls to give the golfer time to hit the ball. If you have to get 80+ degrees out of that right elbow in one third of a second versus 50 degrees in the same time then you have to steal time from somewhere. It is usually body rotation. That does not help with shaft lean.  I agree in that amateurs tend to make the swing more complicated than pro golfers.
