I'm looking at getting a new driver, thinking about getting the Superquad. However, I've never seen someone playing one, and I've seen about 25 Burners. So I was wondering if there is something wrong with the Superquad, and why so many more people play the Burner.

I'm not one to speak on performance but considering the average consumer just walks into a store and buys something off the rack, 1) they are both taylormade, satisfying the brand name element. 2) 100 dollars cheaper, again tying into the same brand name element.

I've hit both on the range and on the course. I liked how hot the ball came off the face of the Burner, but didn't like how the club looked or the stock shaft. It just didn't feel comfortable to me. I do NOT regret my decision going with the Superquad however. I love this driver. It has great workability if you're into that. I dont mess with the weight too often...no need unless you can really feel that small of a difference in your swing.

I love my Superquad. Looks great at address, swings smooth, and the stock shaft is even being played on tour (most are TP models though)

I have the SuperQuad. Bought it off ebay on a whim. Didn't really need it but i bought it. Has a Proforce V2 reg flex shaft in it.

I tried a Burner in store hitting into nets and i didn't like the shaft, not that my opinion would really count towards much but it felt totally out of control. Way too whippy and i don't swing fast at all -100mph.

I demoed a 9.5 degree superquad with an aldila nv75 stiff shaft for 36 holes. It was great! I hit the longest drive in my life with that club. I want one badly, or maybe a Krank golf El diablo.

I bought a Burner (but got it with a 45" shaft instead of the 45.5) and I've tried a SuperQuad in the store. The store I shop at most frequently has a TM fitting center so I was able to hit Burner, Burner TP, Superquad, and Superquad TP before making my decision. The launch monitor indicated I hit the Burner the most consistent so I took its word for it . As someone else mentioned the cheaper $100 price tag didn't hurt either. Honestly, after a few minutes with the Burner I actually liked the head better than that of the Superquad. I might get even crazier next time and go for the Callaway FT-i Tour....

I got the chance to swing both the Burner and Quad a couple weeks back. I was more consistent with Quad so thats what I went with. I was however able to hit the ball about 15-20 feet further with the Burner.

Both are excellent drivers. Either will serve you well, i personally do like the burner a bit more, but a Superquad First edition TP for 175 is just a killer deal....Its just a personal choice, if you like the longer looking head, and inch longer shaft, or the huge head and forgivness of the superquead.

    • Day 105: mirror work today. Focused on not looping my hands at the top of the swing. Straight down. 
    • Still working on the backswing a bit. Hand still gets away from the body, out towards the ball, and at A2 the club wants to roll over and get flat at A3. It's just very difficult to shallow from that position like I want. Which makes my downswing work impossible.  Backswing I have been playing around with the left leg straightening to start the backswing. It's like, a slight shove of the hips right with the left leg. Then just keep the flex in the right knee as I turn into it. I kind of like it. I never had a good swing trigger. It helps keep my left knee extended.  Yea, definitely feeling the hand path is traveling down the feet line, and straight up. A little bit of wrist rotation, and a lot more hinge sooner in the right wrist and elbow. I am trying to get the feeling that the arm hinging up then is the cause for the right shoulder to retract to finish the backswing. Club feels much more vertical at A3. I am trying to have my wrist fully hinged by then.  Feel the club and arms stop at A3.5 (my A4). If my arm collapses late, then I turn into that and I am pretty much screwed. The club and arms kind of have a floaty feeling, where they are just suspended in air for a bit, then drop.  Downswing I have been trying to think of a good visual for this mentally. I like the idea of my hands taking a wide arc to my right pocket, or I am taking the back of the hosel and trying to hit the ground behind my right foot.    Left knee stuff, just sooner.
