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.

    • I mean there has to be some thought. For eg., something like 'soft knees and wrists' at set up and maybe a dynamic 'left arm to chin' as a trigger to start DS. I have these one or two anchor thoughts and have served me well. In fact, my wildest swings are the one where I have no thoughts or if I forget to walk thru my anchor thoughts. In contrast my best rounds are where I am consistent with the anchor thoughts.    OTOH, if I am running my entire half hour lesson (hypothetical) with some pro that I had last Saturday or whatever before every swing then I'm probably in trouble before I even get over the ball.      
    • Two bits. Bit 1 The NCAA's appeal of Brendan Sorsby being granted a temporary injunction will not be heard until February, so there will be nothing to prevent Sorsby from playing the full season and potential CFP.  Bit 2 The Big Ten Conference will hold a meeting and is expected to ban all of its athletic programs from playing Texas Tech in the regular season. Georgia has done the same. The SEC will meet to consider a similar ban. Fellow Big 12 members TCU and Kansas State are spearheading a similar ban, but the conference charter might not allow it. Meanwhile, Big 12 athletic directors are meeting this week to explore what options the conference might have.
    • No, but I'm also in disagreement that golfers have no thoughts over the golf ball, and/or don't ever think I've met someone I truly believe is thinking nothing but "target" or something on most shots.
    • StuM,  I have, in the past, added a left handed club. (Ususally a 7 iron) However, I usually take a stroke penalty and move the ball to where I want it.  I play for fun and in a pinch can use theback side if my club if I don't want the penalty stroke.    RetiredOldMan,  Terry 
    • So, Brendan Sorsby, Texas Tech transfer QB, was found guilty of sports betting by the NCAA. He admitted to it. He placed thousands of bets over multiple years while at Indiana and Cincinnati. This included betting on his own teams.  The NCAA rules ban athletes from betting on any sport (college or pro).  A retired visiting judge from Tarrant County, Texas has put an injunction on the NCAA ruling. He is a visiting judge because the first judge was a graduate and big fan of Texas Tech, and he recused himself. The judged ruled the following... "Under Curry's order, Sorsby is permitted to play for Texas Tech's 2026 season on the condition that he continues his treatment for a gambling and anxiety disorder and serves a two-game suspension (missing games against Abilene Christian and Oregon State)."  Don't get me wrong, I don't particularly care for the NCAA. That still doesn't mean that a college can choose when or where to say, "Yea we agree to these rules for all our sports, well except in this case." Here is a breakdown from S&W. The Hidden Weapon in Sorsby’s Injunction: How a Lubbock County Court Order Quietly Neutralized the NCAA’s Most Powerful Enforcement Tool - Law Offices of Snell & Wilmer By Ryan J. Regula On June 8, 2026, Lubbock County District Court Judge Ken Curry issued a temporary injunction in Brendan Sorsby v. National Collegiate Athletic Association, Cause No. DC-2026-CV-0791 (99th Judicial District... The main judgement made sense. Sorsby, I am going to have all this harm done to me if I don't get to play. The Judge, I agree. The penalty for gambling is too harsh, so here are all these things you must do, and I will grant this injunction against the NCAA. Basically, an analogy would be when a person goes into court for a DUI and they agree to all these other things to not end up in jail.  What sucks for the NCAA is the NCAA has appealed to Texas’ Seventh Court of Appeals, based in Amarillo. All four justices that preside over the court are graduates of Texas Tech University School of Law. It would be hilarious if all four of them had to recuse themselves 🤣. For those who like to read legal rulings...
