In true Burner spirit TaylorMade found every way possible to make Burner XD irons faster and longer. Likewise the ultra-large clubhead features a thin and fast titanium clubface that delivers exceptionally high COR to promote faster ball speed and more distance.

Burner XD's titanium clubface is more than just fast, it's also extremely forgiving thanks to TaylorMade's Inverted Cone Technology, which is clearly visible on the backside of the clubface. ICT expands the part of the clubface that delivers high ball speed. Between that and the large and stable clubhead, Burner XD is extraordinarily forgiving and easy to hit.

Additionally, Burner XD's titanium clubface is exceedingly light, and the saved weight is used to move the center of gravity low and deep within the clubhead. That makes it easy to launch the ball on a high, strong, long flight, promoting the kind of distance that Burner players covet. The 17-4 stainless steel clubhead and titanium clubface are joined using a method called lip encasement, a process that mechanically unites the two dissimilar materials.

"The phenomenal distance and overall performance of the Burner family of metalwoods, especially the Burner driver, has had golfers clamoring for a Burner iron," said Sean Toulon, TaylorMade executive vice president. "That's because Burner metalwoods are so compelling, from both a performance and personality standpoint. We believed that if we applied that same Burner formula to an iron, we can deliver incredible performance. Great news. The wait is over. The new Burner XD iron is here."
