Decisions, decisions…

My trustworthy golf shop around the corner offers the 2008 Taylormade Burner Driver for 225,00 Euro and the new 2009 Taylormade Burner Driver for 449,00 Euro.

Is new technology really worth over 200 Euros more? Does it improve my game equivallently? Or is it better to save the 200 Euros on the driver and invest them in lessons with my pro?

What do you think?
