The combination of TaylorMade's Inverted Cone and SuperFast Technologies give this driver an extremely high MOI and promotes faster swing speed for added distance and forgiveness on mishits. With TaylorMade's improved Dual Crown Technology, paired with power base weighting, the 2009 Burner Driver has a lower CG for a higher launch angle, and lower spin for more distance. so i was probably hitting my tee shot about 260-270 with the taylor made TP black ball.The TaylorMade 2009 Burner Driver features a 460cc head with next-generation dual crown technology for any player looking for an extremely long, forgiving driver. a few of the short par 5's i was coming in with a mid iron.

not super long, but it was very accurate. but i did like the distance i got with this driver. however, i am concerned that this day was just a fluke, and my faster swing speed might not bode well with a regular flex. i like this combo so much right now, i'm looking to build a driver with the exact specs. i played a for a fade/slice, but the teeshot stayed pretty straight and i lost it in the left trees. my misses were not too bad, one in particular was the 9th hole dogleg right. the feel of the NV is very smooth, and i normally play a stiff flex for the NV but this combo seemed to work. probably due to the slightly closed face angle, but on the next 4-5 holes, i was hitting pretty straight drives in the fairway. not sure if the pured shaft made the difference, but i was hitting some good drives with it. Played a friend's tour burner with 10.5 degrees loft, Aldila NV 65R SST Pured shaft. If I could find wedges to inspire my wedge game like this thing has my driving, I'd quit my day job. I believe this club to be responsible for producing results off the tee and inspiring confidence in the rest of my game. I was 2 under on the back through 6 holes and only lost strokes on an errant 4 iron into a par five and a miss hit 8 iron over a par three with a pond. I was hitting from the back tees on the course for only the second time and ended up shooting a 79 after a round of 43 on the front. My last round out I hit the time out of the ball all day with it, averaging close to 300 yds and hitting from the short grass far more than I was used to. It took a few rounds to get used to the weight, as it at least feels quite a bit lighter than the cobra and therefore a little harder to feel throughout the back swing. While with the cobra I was never completely confident that it would go the direction I wanted, the TP has become my most confident club in the bag.

On my last full round with the cobra I put one 360 off the tee, and with the taylormade have been able to still get around 300 or a little more but not near what was possible with the cobra. I should say that I am around 6'4', 270 lbs and around a 115-120 mph swing speed with the driver. My distance was still decent but it lacked the power of my cobra when I really laid into one. I decided to try the taylormade because of the price (around $80 with shipping) and the first few rounds had a bit of a love hate relationship with it. A few times a round when hit solidly it would produce such a harsh metallic ping sound that it would literally leave my ears ringing. My biggest complaint with the cobra was the sound. However, I still struggled with pulling it left sometimes and every once in awhile I'd get a snap hook out of it. Before I bought the taylormade I was back to the cobra and hitting it fairly well, and about as long as I ever had. I've even purchased an alpha model long drive driver at one point to try.

I've used several drivers off and on over the past couple years, switching between a 8.5* cobra x speed to an older Cleveland launcher 7.5*. I used purchased this driver in May gently used from a seller on ebay.
