apples Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Rather than yet another Burner, I don't understand the ridiculous part, its just the japan model of the U.S. Burner 2.0 with a facelift, so it seems like two different products.

reg Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Yeah, I think it's just the Japan version of the current white superfast, just give it another 2wks and the superfast 3.0 will be announced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xamilo Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 The name speaks for itself Burner 2.0-J ( J=JAPAN ). Its the Japanese model for our same white Burner 2.0. What is ridiculous about that? Its not beautiful for sure, but, anyhow... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sallyboy715 Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 I like the Japanese version A LOT better!! It's not triangular like the American Superfast and just looks nicer. I wish I could get my hands on one of these!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HillWilliam Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 Haven't been a TM fan for years but the Japanese version is a handsome head. I could play that. The white thing is merely aesthetic, which doesn't effect me one way or the other. It's fine. But I DO like the sculpting of the head, the base plate and the profile. I'd consider spending 200 bucks on it in two months when it's replaced by the next TM driver..Their product cycles are what turns me off about them more than some of the clunky designs they've brought out recently. But this....is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 We should be used to it, every time a new model comes there is a J spec version which everyone in Japan pays a premium, you can't tell me its any better than the current model, or the one from last year for that matter. I have a revolving WITB policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xamilo Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 IT is already a black model. it is called the burner 2008. thats why its ridiculs because the driver was out in black 3 years ago Some things: 1. There is no Burner 2008 model. There is an 07 and an 09. 08's model was called the "Tour Burner" 2. Second a black 2.0J wouldn't look even close alike to the TOUR BURNER 08. Maybe to the Superfast 1.0 but surely not the Tour Burner 3. Ridiculous is to post the exact same thing three consecutive times in the same thread. I can assure you that doesn't give any more credit to your opinion nor it makes it stronger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brandern Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Did i Miss anything? why is it ridiculous? Isn't it a known fact that Japan has always roll out their own club designs using existing club names presently sold in the US market?

skihippy Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 I believe that this looks a lot better than the US release. Japan usually has better looking clubs than US. I just wonder if they always perform the same.
