I can’t believe not a single person has said a word about the R Sole part, that is comedy gold 😂👏🏻
Brilliant, burst out laughing!
I came to the comments to say that he's earned my subscription based on that joke alone. The "Minnie Driver" one was pretty slick, too. I'm a fan.
I read the comment before seeing the video. I didn't get it from the comment. But when it came up in the video, it was gold!
Sadly all my clubs came with the R-Sole 😢

I have always struggled with my driver so I used an old trusty Callaway 3 wood off the tee which was accurate but a tad short in terms of distance . I just came across this mini driver and was instantly intrigued so I tested the 11.5 deg version and bought it and so far it has not disappointed. The one positive in addition to the pieces you covered that I feel is worth highlighting is the sound. Its really satisfying and definitely more enjoyable than my G410 driver. There are a lot of people out there who should put their ego aside and consider this piece of equipment.
Great to see all that hard work paying off and you getting given access to some of these newer releases from all the major manufacturers. Have been playing a TM black Mini 300 since last season and as expected it doesn’t go as far as my old driver but I have much more control leading to more fairways. Another top review with so real shots on the course. Will we see some New Cleveland 3 Hy wood action this year ?
Great review. I tried the 300 mini and found it hard to launch. Just picked up the BRNR and its SO good. I love the looks, sound and performance. I cant wait to play it out on course and see if i can take that confidence into driver off the deck shots on the 5's
I recently had the same experience. fitted for a standard driver that just didn't work for me. I came across the new Taylormade mini, hit it at a demo day and put it straight into the bag for all the same reasons. Smaller head, easy to control, it's still long off the tee and looks fantastic....
Hi Ande, great video. Would be good to see a mini driver between this one and the last. I brought the last one in 11.5° and could not launch it felt like an old driver and no forgiving. I crunch my Mavrik max 13° 3 wood normally and use it rather than driver so expected the Taylor made mini driver would suit me but didn't.
great review ....i am wanting one of these but am having a hard time deciding which one...13.5 or the 11.5 degree regular or stiff flex....wanna be able to hit off of fairway and use as a driver also from time to time....am 58 and swing the driver 90-95 mph..... which degrees would you think would most suit me for my needs ?.....thx....cheers from Vulcan Canada
I received mine as a gift and it hasn't left my bag since. I turned it up to 15 degrees and it has become my 190 yd off the deck 3 wood replacement. My slower swing speed doesn't get a three wood or 5 wood past 160. The burner goes 190 -200 off a tee and 180-190 off the deck. I even tee it up a little higher on the 180 par 3s and drop it on the green. Vey versatile for sure!
Really one of the BEST TM releases overall in years! With two different standard lost models to choose from, you can use the 11.5 and loft it right down to 9.5 or 10.5 as a regular driver. Or go up to 13.5° and use it as a strong Three-wood. Then the 13.5° model can go down to 11.5 or up to 15.5° which is almost like a 4-wood. Or go 14.5 like a basic 3 wood replacement but bigger head for off the tee confidence. Then add in the moveable weights for either lower or higher trajectory and an absolute beautiful styling… That’s why when they first came out I ordered mine right away. I haven’t even got the plastic off the head I just sit and look at it lol. Our golf season in Canada just began 5 days ago, been out once so far and am waiting to get my swing and tempo stabilized before I try a brand new different club such as this. It’s a jewel! Put it in the bag Andy… I think it’s a real winner here. Enjoy it and have a great season
How did it work out for you?☺️
Being a senior golfer I remember the original burner and used it…Will definitely take a look at this the next time I’m at the store…kinda am or not looking for a new driver…still enjoy my Cobra LTD X Max…due like the idea of Driver 3 wood all in one club…great video…thanks
I also remember and played it, we have an original ready to compare
Still love my original 300 mini! I did change the shaft link to be the same as the Ping driver it replaced. I get better control and greater distance on most drives!
Nice video again! Tempted to try it myself.
3rd season golfer, I only got my first one hour lesson with a pro in march and he helped with my irons.
I struggle with the driver and am not using it at the time.
I use my 3 wood off the tee and place it in the fairway efficiently at round 220 yards average.
This is intriguing, until I get a driver lesson.
Just for everyone saying it's a useless club.
Thanks for the review, always enjoy your content.
From a 34 years old viewer in Québec Canada.
Give it a try and let me know your thoughts
The Bubble Burner was my first Meatal driver in 1997, before that I was using the Ping Zing with wooden head and a steel shaft. Ive been Taylormade ever since currently swapping between a R15 and a SIM Max. I only got my hands on a C300 mini about 3 months sgo😭😭
Thing of beauty that mate. Reminds me of my old burner driver
Any difference between this and the mini driver they released not so long ago or just coloured it different?
I bought the TM Ti-Bubble 2 in the late 90s and it's still my favorite driver. I've tried to play with the super jumbo heads, but it's always been a fight. I will check out this mini driver, and I like the shorter shaft, but 11.5 degrees might be too much loft. Thanks for the review.
I still miss that copper headed beauty.
Picked a used one up from Golfbidder yesterday and I have never hit a golf club so well
11.5* cranked up to 12* regular shaft, pierces through the wind like nothing I've ever used and goes pretty much the same distance as my driver but straight. I play on a course on the South Downs so it is perfect for the wind and the chalk fairways
I cannot recommend it enough
My Titleist TSR driver is going to be sold and all those who will take the mick will be hitting theirs and then walking up to mine !!
Great club, well made and a huge surprise
bought it, love it. had to change my thinking about how to hit it because it doesn't feel like a driver when address the ball. the shorter shaft changed my setup and my swing... i lost 25-30 yards off my driver distance, but suddenly there's this iron-esque control...
I bought it. I love it. The added control and shorter shaft allow me to confidently swing full and I'm getting just as much distance on a good shot and hitting more fairways. If you love woods, but struggle with driver, this is the one.
For any of you younger folk wondering about the "reversibility" of the head cover - when the copper-colored Burner Bubbles came out in 1996, the inside of the head covers was a striped fleece material. And it seemed like no two head covers had the same insides. So, for whatever reason, we turned the head covers inside-out and used them that way.
Considering that TaylorMade never even mentioned that the head covers were reversible way back then, it's a really nice Easter Egg, and I'm glad they went out of their way to make it happen.
Nice vid Andy. I bagged the Bubble Burner years ago and I agree barrel head covers are the best. It seems this Burner mini driver is a 3 wood on steroids, and yet you like it so much. Can't count the times you've vowed to dump your 3 wood for a 5 or 7 wood or a hybrid, when all along you needed to dump the driver and carry a maxi 3 wood!
How about doing a test with interchanging the shafts of the driver and mini driver ie 4 comparisons
Thx
I have the 300 love it ,also play a stz mizuno keep both on tight fairways I go mini it's a great option
First off love the R Sole comment cracked me up lol. I used to use a Taylormade aero burner mini driver but was 16 degrees bit much but brilliant club. I'm liking the idea of shorter shaft deffinatly
Do you think this would replace a Driver or a 3wood in your bag, what would be the make up at the top end?
At my Peak, used the deuce never got on with driver, never bothered about distance just accuracy & in play. Great off the deck too. This could be a game changer. On my shopping list already
@George: Much difference with the shaft on the BRNR compared with the Midr Proto 65s ??
Been playing the original one mini for the past 2 years as my driver. its a bit of a frankenstein club since im playing a 1k orange pro 50tx driver shaft with a lower launch since i can only crank it down to 9.5. I've tried to go back to standard drivers since thats the norm(5 in total), but the mini driver goes nearly as far with the full length shaft(if i could get a lower loft it would be the same), and the misses on compared to normal driver heads are just way more manageable. It feels quite a bit heavier compared to a standard driver with the full length shaft, but i am actually a fan of it. I don' t think i can go back to a normal driver now, i just wish i they made them in lower lofts so i could play them at 7.5 or 8.
We tried it with a full length shaft today and change in weight was very noticeable
Enjoyed the vid Andy, was wondering though whether you had a bet with someone to get the "sole" variation into the commentary!!😂
Loving the look of this driver and I don’t mind the multicoloured head cover when it’s inside out. Still too expensive so will have to wait for a while.
Can you compare this with the stealth2+ 3wood off the tee and deck?
Some how I bought the mini driver 11.5 and some how I add a ventus tr red 5 shaft stiff and I love the ball flight one ball I hit was a 290 to 295 carry and stops in the mud, would think about taking my 3 wood out and put a extra wedge.
I am a beginner golfer and really struggle with the driver. I got a second hand 12* aeroburner mini. I couldn't care less what people think. It gets me off the tee and onto the fairway. Im still working on the driver and hopefully It will come good. Still fancy the aeroburner as a back up.
That’s the beauty of golf. There is no right or wrong, there just what works! You keep playing and having fun, and who cares what anyone else thinks!
Everyone is different. Loft works great, and as you improve your swing may change, and then you may need to change due to swing speed and launch angle.
You have the right idea, in my opinion. I chased distance for a long time. Then I decided that for my game it was better to find the fairway than be searching the rough for errant tee shots (or re-teeing!) As a result my handicap started dropping fairly quickly. The lesson for me was accuracy trumps distance… at least for my game. I do wish I could bomb it accurately but I’m having more fun playing from the short grass. You have to find your own way in this crazy game. Good luck!
Great video Andy. A couple of questions. 1) would it be worth having this and a standard driver in your bag? Using one for long par 3’s and the other for say par 5’s. (2) What’s the difference between this and say a 3 or 5 wood? Chers.
Andy - like the iron analogy. I often hit my 7 iron further and more consistent than my 5 iron.
Do you feel like you can go at it more work the shorter shaft as you have more control? Just thinking if get more club/ball speed that would offset any driver distance gapping.
I do yes I’m fact the more I played it the quicker and more confident I became, in the end I felt I was hitting as long as my driver
I bought the 13.5 degree version of this club last week. It’s great for a mid to high handicapper like me. The dispersion you get from it is way less than a standard driver and it gives you confidence when hitting to narrow fairways or where there are hazards to avoid. Really easy to launch and it sounds fantastic. Very happy with the purchase.
Hi. Have you notices much loss in distance or has the improved accuracy out weighed the distance loss
@@47speedemon very small loss of distance. About 10 -15 yards. Hitting more fairways so worth it for your second when narrow or hazards to avoid off the tee.
@@tonybourke9437 awesome cheers for the reply 👍
I am huge fan of the mini driver and have been waiting for this exact review. if you're someone who hits a long straight ball then obviously you won't need one of these. if you're not however, then I'd say give one of these a go. Great review Andy.
Great review Andy. I was fitted for a stealth, but when I saw this I had to give it a go. Distance and accuracy better than the stealth, looks are amazing. Have to sell the stealth as got a 11.5 mini driver. Couldn't be happier.
Its difficult to get your head around but it clearly works and has to be due to control and strike, enjoy pal
Be interested to know if this replaces your Stealth 2 HD Andy. I’m considering both of those.
I must confess the control and quality of strike does ask a question, I will be comparing soon
Subscribed for R Sole alone haha....great review too!
Very interesting Andy, I have been interested in driver shaft length for better control for some time, and have seen a number of videos on RUclips where people have tested both shorter shaft lengths for conventional drivers and have also tested the various Taylormade and Callaway mini-drivers, all with favourable reviews. I think it was Tom Wishon who said that unless you have a swing speed of around 100 mph, an in to out swing path, and are able to control the club face, you have no business playing a 46 inch driver shaft. So why do manufacturrs have stock 46 inch drivers? I think it's for 2 reasons: Distance sells, and so we're encouraged to have a longer shaft than we average golfers (15 Handicap for me) can use effectively, and also, shelf appeal - if you're looking along a row of drivers in the shop, you're not going to grab the one that's shorter than the rest with a smaller head. And, third, perhaps, our own ego. I think that many Tour pros use shafts of between 44 and 45 inches, so the whole 46 inch thing is actually a disservice to us casual golfers, especially given the price of new drivers. Oh, and just cutting down a stock shaft isn't a good idea as it affects the swing weight and you have to add weight to the club head to compensate - but try finding a proper shorter shaft to buy, as I have, and it's hard. Anyway, longtime fan and keep up the good work.
I pretty much agree with everything you say 👏👏
Great sense of humor lol. Love the BRNR myself. I subbed
The BRNR is a unicorn. Great off the tee and the ground. Unbelievably forgiving for a small head driver. I play a short tight course so it might replace the big stick.
I need this driver! Can anyone tell me where to put the ball in my stance and how high to tee up the ball please (new golfer)
I found that the Burner is so forgiving and maneuverable, draws and fades are easily achievable with little to no effort. Distance is shorter by 30-50 yards only. Honestly it sounds and feels just like my Callaway Big Bertha B21, but it swings like a hybrid.
So what is your verdict; Is it going in your bag as a driver replacement?
Do you feel that most average golfers would hit the fairway a lot more with this club than their normal driver?
How much shorter on average do you hit the burner mini than your driver?
Thanks so much! I Love your channel!
Like alot of amateurs I watch alot of golf channels, club reviews. And I love the game enough to go straight on ebay and try and find a "bargain". I bought this of Facebook marketplace yesterday for £250 and had 10 mins on the range this morning before my tee off time. I have never EVER been this pleased with a club and believe me ... I have a serious problem with buying clubs. One round later ...this is hands down the best club I have ever hit in my life. Always struggled with a driver. This has solved everything.
If your a once a week or less player this is the best driver. I use a 340 small head driver. I never
could get use to the 360 `heads. My 13.5 3 metal I use on tight holes and it is only 10 yards
shorter than my driver. Good review AG,
I remember the days of the smaller driver and to be honest…I miss them. I might just have to consider taking a swing with this club. You seem to have a lot of control, where as with the larger clubs of today, it seems in the complete swing, I always seem to have to wait for the club, if that makes sense to you.
Got mine last week, been to the range with it and the course. I bought the 11.5 degree with a stiff shaft only problem im finding is fitting it into my bag, due to the fact my ping g425 max 5 wood( known as the beast) goes further than it. Might just use it as a fairway finder on tight course and stick with my epic flash for the longer courses as im finding a massive difference in distance compared to the burner. Or keep it mint and sell it for double the price in yrs to come coz it is stunning
🤣🤣
Something l's wrong if you're hitting any 5 wood longer than this.
Great review, Andy. I'm wondering if you tested the regular flex. You and I are close to the same age (and probably swing speed? I'm 96 mph), and I felt good with the regular flex when I tested it yesterday, but the salesperson persuaded me to order stiff flex. I'm wondering if I should cancel the special order and stick with regular flex since it felt great and I hit it well. Either way, I'm getting the 11.5° loft as this will replace my driver.
Did the stiff flex work out for you? I might be in the same boat and couldn’t try it locally and had to buy it online.
I did cancel that order and got the regular flex. The more I read up on it, the more clear it seemed that I was at the absolute minimum swing speed to justify stiff flex, and since I'm 56 years old, it's unlikely that my swing speed will be going up.
I'm very happy with the regular flex, and it definitely feels right for me.@@twang96
Been playing last years 300mini and the amount of fairways I hit per round has probably doubled, also it doesn't have much of a yardage dropoff as I hit the center of the club alot more than my regular driver. Pairs great with a 5 wood as your next longest club.
Try a normal 12 degree driver. Set to 14 degrees. Get a much stiffer and heavier shaft - cut it from the bottom to 3 wood length and compare. My setup out drives most senior golfer setups with a Xstiff 70g shaft. Amazing how you can trust the loft when not needing to time the shaft
I like this concept and appreciate your comment. I don’t have a very high swing speed (not for lack of trying!) but I’ve noticed that when I swing a stiff shafted driver, and a low spin version at that, I drive the ball consistently straight and it often runs like crazy. This would not be the typical driver setup most would think would work for me based on my lack of club head speed. But it works. Stiff shafts don’t just work for the guys with high club head speed.
I bought it last week and it’s amazing I play off 1 and have an 8 degree Driver and 15 degree 5w I went for 11.5 and cranked it up to 12. Fits gap great
Perfect
The best looking headcover indeed!! And I agree that it can be a wrestling match to get some of today's headcovers on and off!! And too many manufacturers are getting away from the shaft protection socks on the covers.⛳⛳⛳⛳
Need a petition 🤣
I’ve had my BRNR since 21st April and after struggling for ages with my Cobra Radspeed, I can honestly say I couldn’t be happier. It’s so confidence inspiring that I don’t think I can miss when I’m stood over the ball on the tee. I can’t launch it as high from the fairway, but it’s a bullet straight stinger type flight that runs forever. My new favourite club - thanks @taylormade
Glad it is going well
@@TheAverageGolfer I forgot to say - another great video Andy, I know you’re enthusiastic about almost everything, but your reaction to the mini driver was the same as mine - why did I bother making life hard with a normal driver? I’ll be interested to see how you get on with the mini head on a standard driver shaft… Next step for me is a LAB putter fitting, you’ve convinced me I should - you need some commission!
@@paulrogers9130 I even have Lewis in a LAB putter and I get sweet FA in commission although many comments suggest otherwise, I wish I did 🤣😂👍
@@TheAverageGolfer 😂 I watched you and Lewis earlier today 👍
@@paulrogers9130 arghh right should have said hello 👍
I’ve just purchased mine can’t wait to take it out 🎉
I have been using the taylor made mini 300 for a couple of years and I really like it - I hit a lot of fairways with a good distance, but I am wondering if it make sense to upgrade to this new version? does the sole or two weight mean that I will get a much better club? Thanks. Great review - I love this channel - it is super relevant to my game. Thanks and keep it up
Would love to try one.
It's not "almost like" a strong 3W, it IS a strong 3W. I played a Adams fairway for along time that was called a 3+ and it had, you might guess, 13.5 degrees. That said, it had a fairway wood sized head, which was much smaller than the Burner Mini, and it had shaft that was likely a bit shorter than the Burner Mini. I loved that club as a driver alternative, but as I got better with my fairway woods, it no longer really fit in the bag and I went back to a standard 3W and Driver. Though I like the idea of a shorter shaft for control and more loft and slightly bigger head for forgiveness, I'd worry that it still just wouldn't fill a need in my bag.
An alternative that could be worth considering is the Taylormade M1 from 2016 and 2017. It was also offered in a 440cc size (vs 460), is fully adjustable, and is plenty long (I have the 2017 version). Resale clubs are still available, can save $$$ vs new.
I think one of the biggest reasons why players would be more successful with these mini drivers is the loft and the length of the shaft. Lots of golfers struggle to launch 9 and 10 degree drivers for various reasons be it swing speed, not being able to hit up, or just not playing enough to get good enough to hit the center of the face. Whatever the reason these work well for those players. Length in what I’ve seen is one of the biggest issues! Those near 46” driver shafts aren’t easy to square up! I have a PXG Gen 5 driver and it’s 45 inches and I gained 30 yards over my M6!
@@dmkfactor1721 The M1 is available in stock 10 1/2 degrees, it is adjustable up or down by 2 degrees. So 12 1/2 loft is possible. I have mine set at 9 1/2 (standard) and 45 1/4 length.
@@montegustafson5142 and?
@@dmkfactor1721 And What....?
@@montegustafson5142 what’s your point genius?
Great shots. Maybe I should just go back to my old Big Bertha driver from 1993. Small head and back then when I was young and dumb and I hit it off the deck.
Yes get it out the closet
@@TheAverageGolfer Great advice. I will play with it on Friday. I will let you know how it goes!
Hi Andy, do you think there are huge improvements over the 300 Mini Driver Performance wise? I just managed to get my hamds on a 300 Mini Driver and can‘t buy this thinf right away😃Thx & Cheers from Hamburg - Frank
Not really principles are the same
Looks a beauty, does it come with a senior shaft?
You can get a light shaft yes
Since this is the length of a FW, are they recommending a driver weight shaft or a FW weight shaft, which is typically 10 grams heavier?
No idea I a using the stock 65gms shaft which is a tad heavier than normal so would guess the latter
Would like to know the difference in distance between this club and your driver.
Great Video, how does this compare to a good 3 wood?
Probably as you would expect, a little longer due to loft but a far larger head at address
I’ve watched as many video reviews as I can on this new mini driver. Yes, all reviewers hit it off the deck, and all shots seem to go way right of the target. My 3 wood goes straight, sometimes a baby draw…so more reliable. I tried the mini 300 when it came out at American Golf. The salesman said don’t bother, stick with your 3 wood.
Great video.
Funny enough I went from the original Burner into a 460cc driver back in the day, I named it the full pint 😁
Got 11.5 played one round with it love it
The aesthetics and price point of the Brnr are more attractive than Taylor Made's premium Stealth 2 model. However, I still have my original Burner driver and am tempted to go fully retro rather than repro.
Why not just buy a driver with a shorter shaft, after all that’s what Rory did. But I totally agree with you about the head cover.
Andy, I take it you're going to do dry ball testing on your new Stealth2 v Burner Mini driver?
Absolutely
Simple answer do what i do play a 44in shaft in a normal driver. Mini driver not sure it makes sense to me i had a burner when i played more irons.
How did the distance off the tee compare to the distance you get from your Stealth 2 driver?
you will lose 15-20 off the tee compared to a standard driver with a longer shaft.
I will do a proper comparison
Maybe but from my previous comparisons, the strike is greatly improved and distance is only lost when you find the centre of club face when using longer shaft and that is less frequent
@@TheAverageGolfer Thanks for the info! I really enjoy your channel! Keep up the great work!
I’m a 3 handicap and have struggled for quite awhile with driver off the tee. It’s really the only part of my game that gives me concern about shooting good scores. In line with what I should be.
One Of my buddies off 15 has one of these, and is pretty much in the fairway with every shot. I’m not bothered about hitting it 350 yards being a bit older. I don’t have the strength to do that anymore. I just want something that will find the fairway at around 275 and I’m a happy chap. I found 13.5° version online with a stiff shaft so immediately ordered it as was the only one I could find in the UK in that spec. It should be arriving tomorrow or Tuesday, so fingers crossed it does what it says on the tin.
I’ll put a follow-up comment to this once I’ve had it rounded with it with a smiling or a 😢
Good luck and let me know how it goes
@@TheAverageGolfer Got the DPD notification arriving today, so ill be heading to the course albeit with low(ish) expectations, hopefully it works out
@@TheAverageGolfer Ok, just got back from 9 holes and the driver is in a word "incredible" I just cant seem to miss the fairway, even the bad shots, the little pushes, and pulls are fairly safe, not off the planet as with my Cobra King f9. The ball flight is towering and flies off the face and I've never had that with my old driver, it always had a shape, this is like an arrow. I It is just on the stock settings so Ill be having a play around with the weights and lofts, but I really don't need to, its playable out of the gate. I felt my confidence coming back off the tee with every shot. Looking forward to a full round on Thursday!
Pleased it went so well 🎉
I have been playing a Sim 2 Max driver with a 3 wood shaft for two years now. It would be interesting to put that head to head against this new offering...
I continued to play my smaller cc driver from the 90s until 2015 because I didn't have enough disposable income to buy the larger CC drivers at the time. I still think 460cc drivers are comically too large. I wished the R&A and USGA rolled back the driver volume rather than the golf ball.
As someone who can’t hit a driver, would this suit me or do you still treat it like a driver with swing technique and set up?
Depends why you say you cant hit driver I suppose, is it lack of control ie this shaft length may help? I would say the set up is similar to that of driver and set up
@@TheAverageGolfer thanks! I think you’re right about control aspect. I got fitted for a 5 wood lifted down with shorter shaft to try and cover for that part of the bag for me
Just sorry it didn't come with a R sole 😂😂😂😂. Have the 13.5 in the bag and loving it ❤
It’s fantastic isn’t it
bought it today online then drove 2 hours to pick it up. then decided to hit it. ehh. never been a fan of twist face for my swing. never. i had the 300 version. loved it. decided to get the ai smoke max instead and the extra 25 yards.
I have the original One mini and I hook it off the earth. I cannot figure out what's so different about it.
Worth a like for the R Sole alone! 😂
Got the 300 series its for me with a slow swing speed better than the old m4
"R-sole" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm sure that for some golfers who struggle with their driving the mini driver will be a useful option.
However, I can't help seeing the irony that TM (who have been pushing "Bigger heads" for more forgiveness and longer shaft length for more driver distance, not to mention their carbon face) should suddenly launch a shorter, smaller driver than is ALL titanium. Surely, someone must be asking the question, "If Stealth2 is that good, why do we now need the BRNR"?????
Or is it just me????
Enjoy the content but normally don't comment. However, 'R Sole' deserves a shout out for being the funniest thing I've ever heard on one of your videos!!
Glad it brought you to the comments and thxs for watching 👍
I do love these many drivers from TaylorMade. However, the question on everyone's minds is what is my distance drop off? Please go out and buy a GPS unit so you can measure off your drives with a driver versus the mini driver. Or when you are reviewing irons and you are not in a simulator, it would be nice to know how far your 7-iron goes. I think the statistics and some distances are the one thing holding back your reviews.
I've got a serious question about the mini driver also! WHAT HAPPENED TO THE NUMBER 2? Can I be the only person who remembers (fondly) the 2 wood? Lets review, size between a driver and 3 wood, loft between driver and 3 wood, shaft length between driver and 3 wood. What do you have?
Not really sure why the name or number makes any difference, it won’t perform any different
I think if we played with our brains rather than our egos, most average golfers would play a mini-driver. I have the Taylor Made Mini 300 that came out last year and love it. Just wish I'd waited though the new Mini Burner appeals to a 90's kid like me.
Probably an unpopular one but I hate the look of the head cover😂😂 I have the callaway Berta 1.5 at 12 degrees which is essentially a mini driver but I’m longer and straighter with my standard driver so it doesn’t really find a way into my bag
Hugely unpopular 🤣👍
Hard to get at the moment
R Sole - Haha! That was an unexpected classic.
👍😂
"with a loft of 13.5 degrees it is almost a strong 3 wood"
No it is not. It is nothing more than a rebranded (and made with modern materials) old style 2 wood.
It is a nice club and probably a really good idea for many people but it is nothing new.
I also completely agree with Andy's comment on the head cover.
Driver off the deck! Peter Finch is calling his lawyer as we speak 😄
I have been bagging the TeeLess driver for years. Although it is an "infomercial" club, it is the real deal. Everyone I let hit it ends up ordering one.
good club but at 11.5 ° it's 10 metres longer in the air than my Cobra f8 3 wood at 13°🤷♂️
total distance is exactly the same as the BRNR lands softer
I used to have the Callaway Mini Driver - I used to call it The Actress
Godamn that R sole was funny😂😂😂
Just been to hotgolf and they don't list this club!
As a senior golfer would a regular shaft be better no fitting centers near me
Yes I would think so
Nice Birdie.
Thanks
“R Sole”… Brilliant! Lol!
