I am currently using 2009 Burner driver and loving it. However, I'm hearing a lot of good things about Burner Superfast 2,0. Just want to find out from those who have used both on how do you compare between the 2 drivers. The point is if the performance improvement is only marginal (say 5%), it just won't make sense for me to waste the money to buy a new drivers. Many thanks.

How about a comparison of Superfast 2.0 to other non-TM drivers?

Got to do a real three-way driver test this summer: Superfast 2.0, Callaway Hyper-X Tour (my normal driver, made in 2008), and Callaway RazR X... all in R flex shafts, with 10.5 degree loft heads. Hit a dozen balls with each on a sunny day with light breeze.

Had a good day hitting all three. Hyper-X and RazR X pretty well tied, decent loft and carry. Superfast went nearly as far as the other two, but took off with almost a 5-iron trajectory. I told the pro about it, and he said I might be better off in Superfast with a 9.5 degree loft. Superfast felt lightest and liveliest of three, just a bit too much hang time on the ball.

Suggestion: try multiple lofts in Superfast 2.0 to see which one is best, also check different shaft combinations.

Back to your original question: Some golfers might pick up 20 yards by switching to Superfast 2.0, while others might do better with the Burner-09. Individual differences in golfers come into play here. That's why we have launch monitors, so you can compare the two on specific performance factors.

Focus, connect and follow through!

    • Very interesting stuff. My one thought that popped out at me is about Scottie Scheffler and the molded grip 7 iron. I would think the chance that it's one of the random ones you can buy from PGA Tour superstore or what have you is very unlikely. I would be astounded if that wasn't done custom for his exact grip, putting it rather out of reach of most of us. The thing about the foam rolling was very interesting. It's not something I've ever done before a lesson at the venue. If I'm feeling stiff or sore, I might do something with a foam roller at home, although even that is unlikely. 
    • Well, I am not surprised since the departure of Koepka and Reed.  Also Mickelson taking hiatus from golf hasn't helped any - albeit he is not much of a needle mover these days. Surprising is LIV hasn't offered any contract extension to Bryson as he seems to be the only marquee player they have at the moment.  Oh wait there is Dustin, Sergio, and ???  But these two guys haven't been doing much lately anyway.
    • Day 7, April 15.   I was so excited about the pelvis turn drills that I didn't work on the hip rotation drill from my latest Skillest lesson (oops!).  I worked on that today, using a cereal box.  I also continued to do some pelvis turn drills, in part because I'm doing some of it with all practice balls hit, and I wanted to hit some balls this morning too.  
    • I was hoping to find an image of my Edel Putter in my swing thread here. I found the video of the 1st tee shot at Moon Valley from 2015.  Whooo man, that backswing, 🤣 Man, I had faster hips and more mobile hips back then. I could get the hips open prior to impact.
