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

His post says Burner Plus, but my arguments still apply to the '09 Burners (actually, a little bit more-21* 4 iron? No thanks).

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.

My post is just my opinion-I understand the desire to get new stuff. I personally don't care for the Burner irons, and I think the CG7's are a much nicer set. As a new golfer I think what you'll find even more gratifying is getting better-stick with a set of irons and get comfortable with them, it looks like your WITB is in good shape already.

I got a chance to play with my new Taylor Mades. Shot the lowest score so far. I would say they were a great investment.

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!

PS..... POOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW I much prefer Cleveland gear over most taylormade stuff!

    • 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)

    • 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.

    • 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.
