Here awhile back i bought a whole set of Cleveland Irons and switched out the 3-4 irons for 3-4 Cleveland DST Hybrids. I have always been "Hit or Miss" (no pun intended) with the DST hybrids. I was bored one day and went to The Golf Warehouse and tried the Taylormades to see if it was the fact that I am a crappy golfer, or the DST were actually difficult to hit. I was surprised to see that I was actually crushing the heck out of the Taylor Mades... So i ended up walking out with a pair. I have now had them out to the course 3 times and have used them several times and I am amazed! They hit so much easier than the DSTs. Now I am questioning my Cleveland irons and thinking about trying out the Taylor Made Burner Plus... dont know if it would make any difference or not.... heck, its only money right?

Look, here's the thing about TaylorMade clubs...not only will they make you a better golfer, you will often find yourself surrounded by beautiful women. You will become smarter and more desirable, more successful. After I made my latest purchase, a TP Monte Carlo by Kia Ma putter, I was abducted by aliens just so they could look at the headcover. Their spacecraft was shaped like a TM Super Deep driver!

Seriously, TaylorMade clubs are pretty good...

I would love to try some TM's. Used their woods all through the 90s. My Nike's have been snipers, not sure why. Maybe Christmas time will be kind to my game this year.

I am really thinking that because The Golf Warehouse has TM Burner Plus on sale for $349 and I have a $60 gift cert.... I might just have to drop the hammer on some new irons...

I like Consolover best, I play Braeburn a lot. I also play Echo and Sierra. I wanted to play Sim today, waiting on the weather. I usually tee off about 3:45. I also play Cheney.

CG7 to Burners? Not a switch I'd make.

Max Power: How come?

Just personal preference. I prefer the way the CG7's set up at address, I prefer the look of the iron overall, I don't like that the Burner Plus long irons are even stronger lofted than the strong lofts on most GI irons, the Burner Plus feel draw-biased in their weighting (which is the opposite of what my swing needs), and I prefer the impact feel of the CG7's.

Max Power: I am pretty new to the golf game. I have a problem with buying stuff, trying it out and then selling it and getting something different. What I REALLY want to find is a set that i can actually tell the difference in them, and STICK with them instead of buying all of these different ones. Yeah i have gone in and tried them at the store, but hitting off the mat into a net and on an actual course is ALOT different for me.... Plus i like getting new toys... I figured that if i dont like the Burners, I can send them back to TGW within 30 days.

Max Power, he is interested in the '09 Burners not the Burner Plus.

      Too Old ?

      By RetiredOldMan · Posted

      Hello Golfing Buddies, It has been awhile since I posted but I am the Retired Old Man that asked for advice because I suffered two "T.I.A.'s about switching from playing right handed to playing left handed.  I purchased a Callaway Edge Left handed golf clubs. I changed the grips to oversize grips.  Well, two weeks ago and still at 79 years old, I shot a 44 and 47 on a small course in my hometown.  I am currently changing my shafts from regular flex to Senior flex.  So, you can see' it can be done! So, you other old timers; get with the program! Blessings to all of you. Retired Old Man (Terry Warner)

      LIFT Your Freakin' Arms

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Probably since the golfer has to swing the club back and up. The hands have to move back and up. You can feel them go back and up just by turning the shoulders and bending the right arm, because it brings your hands towards your right shoulder.  The difference is if you maintain width or not. Less width means a shorter feeling swing path so the more you need to lift the arms. Being as someone who gets the right arm bend at 110+ degrees, it's 100% a timing issue. I am use to like a 1.5+ second backswing. It probably should be like 1 second at most. Half a second or more will feel like an eternity. I have had swings where I keep my right arm straighter and I am still trying to time the downswing based on the old tempo.  Ideally, for me, it is probably going to be a much quicker and shorter (in duration) backswing, while keeping the right elbow straighter. Which also means more hinging to get swing length without over swinging.

      LIFT Your Freakin' Arms

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      I'm currently recuperating from surgery, so no golf, but have been thinking about this quite a bit. This and the don't overbend the right arm thing. It's hard for me to even pose the position, so I'm not 100% sure, but I feel like it's impossible to have the right humerus along the shirt seam and not overbend your right arm, unless your hands are down near your hips. If the left arm is up at or above the shoulder plane and your right arm is bent less than 90 degrees, then your right humerus has to raise or your hands will get pulled apart. Your left hand can't reach your right hand unless either the right upper arm is up or the right arm is overbent. Is that right? If it is, then focusing on not overbending the right arm would force you to raise the humerus. And actually thinking further on it, if you do overbend your right arm, then you're basically forcing your upper arm down or forcing your left arm to bend. Since (for me at least) bending the left arm too much is not something I think I need to worry about, it means that the bend in the trail arm is really the driving force behind what happens to the right humerus.
