While
releasing the
2.0, TaylorMade
made sure it did not forget what it calls the “
discerning player” by also coming out
with the Burner SuperFast 2.0 TP
driver. It differs from the standard
model in four critical ways by
featuring a more compact address footprint as well as a single
weight port on the toe, a slightly
open clubface angle and a 65-
gram Matrix Ozik HD 6 shaft and
43-gram Tour Velvet Light grip.
The club’s aerodynamic club head
shape encourages a faster swing
speed, they add, while the open
face and toe weight allows it to be
swing-weighted differently for a
more neutral bias. l

TaylorMade engineers say they
pulled out all the stops when they
created the latest versions of the
Burner SuperFast driver – the 2.0.
For starters, they made this
black-and-white bomber the light-
est driver (279 grams) in company
history in an effort to enable golf-
ers to swing the clubs faster for
greater distance. Technicians say
they managed that weight reduc-
tion by employing an ultra-light,
48-gram Matrix Ozik XCon shaft
and a Winn Lite grip that tips the
scales at only 25 grams. At the
same time, they claim they have
improved overall clubhead aero-
dynamics, resulting in a driver
that is five yards longer than the
original Burner SuperFast, which
was introduced in 2010.
