Hello everyone. This is my first post to the site so please bare with me. So I'm looking at purchasing some new irons and I've narrowed the selection down to the Taylor made Burner line. I've hit the 2009 burner 1.0 and they felt fantastic. Long, straight and lots of elevation. But I've also heard that the other Burner irons are also very good. I haven't hit them but I'm interested. I just want an iron that can give me consistent shots cause I'm playing some old crappy Wilson blades right now that are not the easiest to hit. Money is not really an issue but if there are only slight differences between the three, I would rather take the cheapest. Thanks for any responses!

Oh and I'm open to any other clubs that fit the cheap GI iron description.

What's stopping you from looking at the RBZ line of clubs? The RBZ irons are red-hot and I prefer the shape of the driver head on the RBZ to the Burner. All personal preference, of course but you could probably get a good price on some RBZ irons.

I had the 09 burners and really liked them.  I don't know what the difference is with the 2.0's but the plus have a big offset that may or may not fit your eye.

You can get the 09 burners for $225 or so on ebay.  If you interested in a used set, PM me.

You've probably already made the purchase, but I just bought a set of Burner Plus irons a month or so ago.  I hit the 2.0's and was not a fan.  The Burner Plus have larger heads and in my opinion are much easier to hit.  Perhaps a more skilled player would see the value in the 2.0 line, but for my money, Burner Plus is as good as it gets.  They've added yardage to each of my iron shots, which was consistent with all the reviews I read.  Best of luck mate.

    • It’s possible the graphite shaft has a small internal crack or a delamination. Tapping it and hearing a vibrating sound is usually a sign the shaft isn’t behaving as it should. Since the store wasn’t helpful, consider taking it to a club fitter or a pro shop that can check the shaft flex and integrity. If it’s defective, you might be able to get a replacement from the manufacturer.
    • It’s interesting how much a 3D system changes your understanding. Observing top players in full detail and realizing the trail knee shouldn’t fully extend is a great example of why being open to new info is so important. I like your approach: not trying to be “right,” but trying to teach correctly based on actual evidence. Makes sense why golfers would benefit from this perspective.
    • I would say both are equally not the best for golf. Is it better than nothing, sure.  Golf is an athletic motion. Professional golfers are doing a comprehensive workout routine focusing on strength, power, flexibility, stability. They might include some yoga into the routine. I would put both of them in the recovery bin, not golf enhancement bin.  If you want to increase swing speed, core strength, longevity in golf and life, then lift heavy weights.
