Crucial to the Tour Burner driver’s performance is TaylorMade’s new Dual Crown technology, wherein the size of the crown is noticeably smaller than the large sole. The smaller crown is 12% lighter than the crown of TaylorMade’s Burner driver. Also crucial is TaylorMade’s Ultra-Thin Wall casting technology, which allows the clubhead walls to measure as little as .55 millimeters thick.
The weight saved by the Tour Burner driver’s Dual Crown and Ultra-Thin Wall technologies is redistributed to create an exceptionally low CG location – among the lowest ever in a TaylorMade driver. On a vertical axis, the Tour Burner’s CG is positioned 40% lower in relation to the center of the clubface than the Burner TP.
The Tour Burner driver head’s exceptionally high MOI makes it extremely stable and forgiving on off-center hits. That benefit, combined with the advantage provided by TaylorMade’s renowned Inverted Cone clubface technology, results in even higher ball speed on off-center hits.
The Tour Burner’s large sole serves a second valuable purpose by creating an expansive address footprint that promotes increased confidence, and the advanced clubhead geometry delivers the kind of great impact sound and feel for which TaylorMade drivers are famous.
The Tour Burner also features TaylorMade’s SuperFast technology, embodied by the combination of a SuperFast 60-gram shaft that combines low torque (2.8) with a stiff .350” tip, an extra-light grip and a club-length of 45.5”. Together these components promote faster swing speed for increased distance.
Availability begins at TaylorMade’s retail partners in April 2008 at a manufacturer’s suggested retail price of US$499.

Also had a hit at a Drummond.. Ball flight was consistently 14’-16’ and was clearing 280-290 metres on the fly, and it has got rid of my slice as it is more of a hitters club… My swing speed is between 116 – 119 mph so I like to give it a wack and it loves it… Ordered mine with a 9.5’ loft and Stiff Shaft, should be ready for pickup in the next day or so…
