This set is definitely not for beginner. The Burner is more for beginner.

The cb is actually for beginners. It's head is much bigger than the mc n mb and also it's much more forgiving. ever since I bought the MCs I m in love with it !

Was hitting the CB yesterday together with the R11. I can ony say onething. The CB launches the ball really really high!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Was hitting in on NSPRO 950R
Even higher than my cobra S2.
However between the R11 and the CB, i would take the CB anytime....
still left new set of wedges, a 24 degree hybrid and a golf bag (my current one zao geng at the wrong places)....and a new pair of white golf shoes...today Poresia laugh at me say black shoes only uncle wear.....
TO add on more, it goes really really straight....and long. I was hitting it into a strong head wind and it was like maybe 1 club length shorter that my Cobra S2..

no ...the tp cb is forgiving enough, suitable for the high handicapper if u choose the right shaft flex i don't see any issue

Hey Guys, To add to all your comments, the TM CB can be suitable for a beginner. I say this because it has a much larger head as compared to many other clubs, in terms of size, it doesn't vary much from the Burner irons. Main difference of course if that the face of the CB id forged. the head is a 2 piece head. forged face with a casted body. this Created a massive undercut and a really low CG. This would be why Bro Winston hit this iron really high. One other difference is that the loft would be slightly weaker as compared to the burner. Burner std lofts are very strong, that accompanied with a low CG too.
Both are fun clubs to hit. You'll come to realise that you would hit them both a mile.

Hi, just bot the TP CB with a DG shaft and went to the range last nite. LOVED it!!!! the key reason I bot this was I needed a easier playing set since I golf at most once a month nowadays (if at all) and hitting my MP32s very inconsistently. Only problem now is that my balls are moving to the left given my swing, and I can only correct this if I have a more upright swing (didnt need to do this with my MP32 as it was fitted to me). I figure its maybe cos the CB lies are more upright and hence I need to adjust this?
also, my fren is interested in the CB now that she has tried this, but the DGs are too heavy for her (although she hits them pefectly!). need to demo with perhaps the nspro shaft which is the stock brought in by retail outlets. does anyone know where we can demo this fully at a range? MBGC?
