Does It Make Sense To You?

Ask yourself the question again: “When buying golf equipment, which of price, fit or brand is the most important”. Whenever I ask any group this question, 4 out of the 5 will answer “fit” but a lot less than that have had their equipment fitted. And if I extend my query on ‘fitting’ to their Driver then the ratio is even worse.
What is it about the Driver that indicates it is a “one-size fits all” or a “follow the Pro on the TV” sort of club? Surely the club that gets us started, the one that has the longest shaft and the one that is most likely to put your ball out of play if miss-hit, is the one that needs more care and attention at the point of purchase.
Before we get to shaft type, strength or length. Before we wrap your hands around a grip to check why you hook every other tee-shot and even before we get out more weights than you’re likely to find at the local gym, let’s start with LOFT.
As long ago as 2003 Golf Digest published data from one of their robot tests to show that golf ball innovations had changed the rules and required us to think about playing with more Loft on our Drivers. And even before that, the ‘Long Drive Champions’ were sitting with stop watches to measure ‘hang-time’ (the amount of time the ball remained in the air). They had figured that the longer the ‘hang-time’ the further their Drive would go, which was counter to our 90′s ambition of low, long-running tee shots.
There is a very real physical relationship between the angle at which the ball leaves the club face, the swing speed of the club at impact, the golf ball that you use and the distance that you will get off the tee. It is a PGA Qualified Golf Professionals job to make sure that the ‘dimensions’ are working for you and NOT against you.
Before you take the information on the right and do a simple match, remember that we need ‘dynamic loft’. An 11

GOLF IS THE MOST DIFFICULT SPORT IN THE WORLD TO PLAY
There is no reason to make it harder by using poorly suited equipment. If you want to play your best golf, your golf clubs must fit you perfectly! This is the reason why major golf manufactures have developed custom club fitting department to assist golfers with fitting and ordering golf clubs which are designed to assist all golfers with fitting and ordering golf clubs which are best suited to them.
Many of today’s best golf clubs can be custom fit for lie angle, shaft type, length, and grip type and size. Professional club fitter can frequency-match each club in your set to get the ultimate feel. Therefore, you can order the club you want with the specifications that best fit your swing. And in many cases, at a cost which is the same as an off-the-rack set of clubs. This is done by checking swing speed electronically and then properly orienting all shafts to ensure greatest shaft stability at impact.
Some equipment considerations for the average golfer include:
The clubs should be forgiving. Investigate oversize, perimeter-weighted clubs, which allow the ball to be hit higher and easier. For lower handicap players and professionals, the blade club head is preferred and allows the ball to be hit lower with more control.
Consider being custom-fitted for your irons to ensure the shafts are the right length and stiffness for you. You know when you feel in control of the club-head and this feel can be duplicated in all of your clubs. It may also be worth checking your shafts as they are known to deteriorate and bend over time, which will cause a loss of distance.
Using clubs that are proper length and lie can have a significant impact on the consistency and direction of your ball flight. A golfer who consistently pushes the ball and hits shots on the toe of the club may have a club that is too short and/or a lie angle that is too flat. Conversely, hitting pulled shots off the heel of the club may be the result of a club that is too long and/or has a lie angle that is too upright.
During putting, your eyes should be directly over the ball at address. It may be necessary to check the length of your putter’s shaft. If your eyes are inside the target line, the shaft is probably too long and may need shortening. Also worth considering if you are currently have the dreaded putting yips is the 42 or 50 inch long putters made famous by professional golfers such as world number two Vijay Singh and Peter Senior.
For all golfers, consistency in driving long and accurately allows the person to play to their handicap. The larger titanium drivers around the 400-420 cubic centimetre mark with a 43-44 inch shaft provide a greater spring-like effect and consequently more distance.
Consider adding a 60-degree sand wedge to your bag for those short tight shots out of the bunkers and around greens. Phil Mickelson, the world leading short game expert, swears by this club.
Choose the golf ball to suit you. For the average golfer, the lower compression balls are better matched to the speed of the person’s swing. Solid core balls are generally replacing the wound balls and include the multi-layered and two-piece solid core types. For example, an 80 compression golf ball may result in better distance and accuracy than the 90 and 100 compression balls. Compare a variety of different types of compressions over a round of golf.
Have your grips checked for size and wear, and replace if required. If grips are too thin, you may hook, and if too fat, you may slice.

TaylorMade Tour Burner Driver left Handed

In 1998, three of the biggest sports equipment brands merged: TaylorMade, Salomon and Adidas. Adidas produces sports shoes and sports clothing, and has sales that are over six billion dollars a year. It is best known for football. Salomon meanwhile is best known for its contribution to the world of snowboarding and skiing. And TaylorMade is of course, best known for golf clubs, now considered the No.1 most used driver in the world of men’s professional golf.
TaylorMade’s family of Burner drivers is engineered for those who want to bomb it (by contrast, adjustable-weight r7 clubs are for those who like to tinker).

The new Tour Burner and Tour Burner TP feature a smaller, lighter and crown (by 12%) that distributes more mass lower the head. This new design helps shots take off higher, and with less spin, than they do with the previous Burner. The payoff is greater distance. Tests by our exclusive equipm”at 100 mph swing speed”] due to 1.5-degree higher launch.
Sounds simple but here’s the physics of it: The center of gravity (CG) in most drivers is located well back from the face to produce high launch. But this alone could increase spin too much and impede overall distance. Dropping the CG lower in the head reduces spin and potentially boosts total distance. In actual numbers, the CG in Tour Burner is 5 millimeters below the center of the face versus 3 mm in the Burner TP.
The Tour Burner comes with the Reax SuperFast 60-gram shaft at 45.5″. It is also available through the firm’s SelectFit custom fitting system.
We provide very competitive wholesale prices to our resellers who aim to develop their business.All of our clubs in http://www.golfdiscountsale.com are imported from an authorized and certificated supplier，guarantees that our products will be of the highest quality available, made of high grade materials, and play with high performance.
Increased swing speed from TaylorMade Tour Burner Driver Review

Article by Golf Club Sets
I’ve layed a friend’s Tour Burner Driver with 10.5 degrees loft, Aldila NV 65R SST Pured shaft.. I wasn’t sure if the pured shaft made the difference, but i was hitting some good drives with it. first off the tee was a low hook. probably due to the slightly closed face angle, but on the next 4-5 holes, i was hitting pretty straight drives in the fairway. the feel of the NV is very smooth. The first thing you’ll notice about the Tour Burner is the large size of the sole of the club which is larger than the crown. This is part of the new Dual Crown technology, which is crucial to the driver’s performance. A clearly delineated groove encircles the extra large clubhead, separating the crown and the sole, giving the club a unique look. An advantage of having a smaller crown is the reduction in weight, making the Tour Burner 18% lighter than the crown of Taylor Made’s Burner Driver.The TaylorMade Golf Tour Burner Driver has a dual crown made of steel, and the weighted power-base promotes increased distance. The lower and precision-placed center of gravity offers a higher launch angle and lower spin, while the SuperFast Technology gives increased swing speed. The exceptionally high MOI of the Taylormade Tour Burner driver head makes it extremely stable and forgiving on off-center hits. During my tests at both the driving range and on the golf course my off-center hits still went straight and long, thanks to the high MOI. That benefit, combined with the advantage provided by TaylorMade’s patented Inverted Cone Technology (ICT), result in even higher ball speed on off-center hits. Inverted Cone Technology is characterized by a shallow cone milled directly onto the inner side of the clubface and changes the way the face behaves at impact so that a larger area of the face delivers higher ball speed. Higher ball speeds leads to the tour-caliber distance we all desire.The Taylormade Tour Burner also features TaylorMade’s SuperFast technology, embodied by the combination of a Fujikura SuperFast 60-gram shaft that combines low torque with a stiff .350″ tip, an extra-light Golf Pride Tour Velvet grip and a club-length of 45.5″. As mentioned before the club feels so light in your hand and looks svelte. Together these premium components promote faster swing speed for increased distance. The online shop Wholesale golf clubs is a good leading golf site to nuy golfequipment and I like this combo so much right now, i’m looking to build a driver with the exact specs.
