TM Japan releasing LE Burner Tour Irons

[chip75]

Limited run...

It seems even pro golfers have wish lists as US and Japan pros have made a lot of normal golfers... normal golfers with lots of cash a lot happier by releasing the Burner Tour Irons as a limited run. Also a quick look at TM's Japan website shows their iron line up is better than any other region. Regarding the irons they look like the B version easyyy posted pics of a while back apart from the TP badge.

Man. Yes, I want either these or the Burner Forged JDM irons.

Man, these looks ridiculously sweet.

If you live in the U.S can you somehow order from Taylormade Japan and if so how. I like the looks of their Tour Preferred irons on there site vs. the one in the States. Also I'm lefty is that going to be a problem?

[Madball]

You can order anything from Japan on Tourspecgolf.com

[ksavy17]

[golfware]

$1150 for 5-PW I think.... if I recall correctly. Although that might have been the Burner Forged.

Why does japan ALWAYS get the sickest stuff?

[ksavy17]

$959.00 for 5-pw. Tourspec has no pics. These look like the b heads and def have my interest

Tourspec has them ready for order at $989. 5-PW.

I'm left handed so I have no chance of getting those , whoever picks those up enjoy they blow my reg burners out of the water

[TheMoneyShot]

Do these have the same hot face as the original burner irons have?

[Big Ben]

I just recieved mine a few days ago from Tourspec, yes they indeed are the B's (Japanese tour recieved prototyes and TM Japan decided to offer limited release). Going like hotcakes in Japan too, only released 100ish sets I believe in the first run, second run will take a while from what I hear. They are SICK man, totally sweet. Pretty darn close to zero offset, having them re-shafted with black chrome KBS X-flex as we speak....BB

By the looks of it these are near exact replicas of the Burner B heads. I wonder if the 3 and 4 irons will be available?

God Bless

They are totally, soft cast too (from what I'm being told)! Yes they do offer addition sticks. It's a is real shame these aren't being offered in the US as a limited release as well, just blow away the looks/feel of the R9 TP's, not even close...BB

BB, do all the irons have the pocket style cavity, or are they like the Mizuno 200s and 300s where there is a pocket style cavity for only 3-7 iron.

[craz-e]

Thinking about going for a set of these, would love to have them with the black KBS Tour shafts. Any more feedback from these? I see the TP version have more "traditional" length shafts and lofts

[puresurfr]

I see a channel in the cavity...I thought the burner B heads had this portion solid ????

[M-Stamp]

BB, do you know if TM Japan would do custom specs on these? I wonder how many degrees of lie and loft angles they would bend in a custom order.

[newportbeach]

These look real nice. Will someone please take some live pictures? Thanks.

[craz-e]

Big Ben keep us all posted with your findings, looking forward to your review, interested in your findings against your old irons

yea don't look like B heads to me, they def have a channel under......

[M-Stamp]

This may be because low/mid irons on the Burner TP Japan do not have the undercut? If so, I wonder what irons have the undercut and what don't.
