TaylorMade Burner XD
Built for the average player, Burner XD provides
improved distance forgiveness and more draw
bias than its predecessor, the r7 XD. A bigger body
with livelier 'inverted cone' clubface technology
(0.79 COR vs. 0.76 COR) means more of the face
produces "faster" ball speeds. Company testing
shows you'll get five yards more on center and
mis-hits. Its thinner, lighter face (than the r7
XD) contributes to higher inertia (by 11 percent)
and more directional help on misses. Lastly, a
metal badge in the cavity manages impact sound.
