Try the Callaway Big Bertha V Series as well - another lightweight, fast club. It suited my swing style.

Not a fan of the way the Aero Burner looks, just the design and color scheme makes it look like those lower cost clubs that Callaway and TaylorMade make for Dick's or Sports Authority.

I thought the same exact thing when I saw it, looked really cheap and not anything like I'd expect from TM.

previously to purchasing the Aero Burner TP I had the R11 for quite a few years. I decided it was time for a new driver and I went to my local Taylormade Performance Centre to get properly fitted. I went into the fitting thinking I was going to get the R15 but the performance of the Aero Burner TP easily changed my mind. Hitting the sweet spot was simple and on off center hits the numbers on the launch monitor were still great. My R11 is a 9 degree with Adila Rip stiff shaft. I was fitted for a 10.5 degree Areo Burner TP with a Fujikura Sppeder VC 6.2 x-stiff shaft. I was hitting the Burner 10 yards more of carry and rolling out to 15-20 yards in total greater distance than the R11. Whatever driver you buy, get properly fitted. You won't be disappointed.

What's in my bag... Driver: Taylormade Aero Burner TP (10.5 degree) Fujikura Speeder 6.2 V.C. X-stiff 3-wood: Taylormade RBZ (15 degree) Hybrid: PING i15 (20 degree) Irons: PING S55 (4-W) with DG x100 Wedges: PING Tour s (50, 54 and 60 degree) Putter: Scotty Cameron Select Newport 1.5

    • Fantastic selection! And very little driving between them. Fingers crossed the weather is good to you.
    • Day 20: 2026.01.22 Hit about twenty balls at the range. Quietly pleased with how the changes are bedding in, surprsingly consistent ball flight. Hoping to film over the weekend to capture new movement.
    • You might also consider a tune-up lesson. Check and see if anything in your set-up or basic swing is holding you back. I have been playing for more than five decades, but on occasion I've had to make swing tweaks due to age, loss of flexibility, etc. You don't have to reinvent your swing. A couple of static set-up changes might really help out.
    • Good advice. In general, you want to take whatever weight you are lifting to a couple of reps before failure, for muscle growth. There are other tactics for PT related stuff. I would trust your PT person.  For muscle growth, you can go like 30 reps to failure. It is tougher to gauge. Also, it takes 2x as long to do the same number of working sets per week if you are doing 15 instead. It is way less efficient, but your case is special because of the injury/aggravation to the hip. 
    • Several years ago I got paired with a twosome of golfers, one of which had a maybe 5-year-old son with him. The kid had a putter and a 7i with him, and on some holes he would drop a ball near the green, chip on, and putt. If the kid started to get distracted, the dad would ask, "Do you need to rest?" The kid would nod yes, and then take his dad's seat riding in the cart for a couple of holes. It was a slow day, and the kid was polite and friendly. We got through 18 just fine. (If it had been a crowded course day, I'm sure it would have been less pleasant.)
