Hello,

I'm in the market for a new driver.
I heard praises about ye olde 07' Burner but i am now hesitating with the r9 460 which price falls atm.
As I never tried a 07' Burner can anyone tell me if there's in interest in spending the extra 50$ for the r9?

I am about 90-95 mph and have quite high and draw trajectory.

Thx for your help !

I have the '07, my brother just got the R9 460. I have hit them both and there is not a significant difference. If it were me I would go with the newer technology, no matter if only a slight difference.

Yeah, wanna make 14 dollars the hard way?

Up until the first of this year, I had the 07 Burner, and really was happy with it. It was at the time, the best driver I ever hit. But then I purchased the R9460, and I was amazed at the results! My drives suddenly gained 10 - 15 yards, and were straighter! Then something else happened. Because I would mess a drive up every so often, I decided to try choking down an inch or so, and unbelievably my drives were way more consistant, and were still long! In fact, they were probably a little longer.

My swing speed is about 90 or maybe a little less (I measure it with a Speed Stik), so you should have similar results.

Was the R9460 worth it? Boy, was it!

I would say get the R9 460, unless you can get the TP model of the O7 Burner.

    • Day 23: weird day, and only had a little bit of time. Just did mirror work again, working on where the elbow is in the downswing 
    • I flipped over to this tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it. Anyone else watch? I picked it up during the golf relay event, but seeing these pros out having fun in alternative events was refreshing and entertaining. I’m sure it will be on in reruns in the next week or so, so I won’t spoil the outcome. Im curious what others thought of it. I’m recording it’s later airing to see the beginning. 
    • Day 443 - 2025-12-17 Made a few swings in testing some things out at another academy. Might pop up on someone else's podcast in a few weeks.
    • Day 37 (17 Dec 25) - nine hole round with my good friend.  We got paired up with a couple of the men’s group regulars as part of their shootout.  Started off with a wonderful quad bogie and then a dbl on three to be six over thru three holes.  Game went 180° over the next five as I shot one under (including a chip in birdie on hole six and four up and down 1 putt pars) for a net finish of five over. What could have been a really tough nine became a solid finish due to staying in the moment and not checking out.  Great day in course management and keeping perspective .
    • Day 127 12-17 Backswing and flow practice. Took advantage of the 60 degeee weather(it was 20 degrees Sunday)
