TaylorMade Tour Burner Irons

TaylorMade is pitching the Tour Burner irons as clubs designed to appeal to all levels of golfer. The 2.2-millimeter thick clubface and Inverted Cone Technology, visible on the back of the clubhead, are intended to increase COR and deliver higher ball speeds and distance, along with forgiveness.

The backs also show heel and toe weights, and the sole is beveled along its trailing edge to increase playability from a variety of lies - making it play more like a thinner sole, TaylorMade says.

As for looks, the Tour Burner irons have a chrome-plated satin-buff finish and a "medium-thin" topline. The stock shafts are Burner 105 steel by True Temper, and the graphite Burner REAX 65.

The TaylorMade Tour Burner irons are available in 2 through 9, plus PW (46 degrees), sand wedge (55 degrees), attack wedge (50 degrees) and lob wedge (60 degrees). A 3-PW set will carry an MSRP of $840 with steel shafts, or $1,040 with graphite shafts. Clubs will be available at retail beginning in April 2008.
