The new TaylorMade Stealth 2 range of golf drivers, fairways, rescues and irons are all about forgiveness, or as TM says “FARGIVENESS.” From a 3D Carbon Crown to 60X Carbon Twist Face and low-CG design, the Stealth 2 series is ready to give your 2023 rounds a serious upgrade. Read on to find out if these clubs could be for you.
TaylorMade Stealth 2 Drivers – The Tee Box is Yours
With the original Stealth, TaylorMade pushed past the limits of titanium and introduced golfers to the Carbonwood Age. Now they’re ready to up the ante. Compared to the previous model, the Stealth 2 drivers feature nearly twice the amount of carbon. Constructed using a new Carbon Reinforced Composite Ring, the brand’s advanced application of carbon allows for the redistribution of mass, resulting in better forgiveness and stability.
A new 60X Carbon Twist Face has also been employed, featuring an enhanced take on Inverted Cone Technology to help maintain ball speed on those pesky off-centre strikes, and to also increase forgiveness. TM engineers were also keen to pay particular attention to the sound of the new Stealth 2 Drivers. By factoring in carbon sole thickness with a combination of curvature, shape and internal stiffening ribs into the equation, they were able to fine-tune acoustics to deliver a sound that is both powerful and bright.
Three Ways to go FAR
Note: As you move through the models in the order below, MOI increases to deliver progressively higher spin and launch.
STEALTH 2 PLUS
Fact Finder: Featuring a sliding weight track, the Plus model includes a single 15g weight that can be positioned according to your preferred shot shape. The FCT Loft Sleeve is used to optimise launch and trajectory.
Who’s it for? The least forgiving of the driver models, the Plus is aimed at the better player.
STEALTH 2
Fact Finder: The reconstructed Stealth 2 delivers higher MOI than the original Stealth and features a heavy 25g tungsten weight that’s positioned on the Inertia Generator for added forgiveness. The TPS Front Weight is strategically located on the sole for optimal launch and spin purposes to help deliver complete performance and maximum forgiveness.
Who’s it for: The standard of the group, the Stealth 2 will suit a variety of players who favour mid-spin, mid-launch and a slight draw-bias.
STEALTH 2 HD
Fact Finder: In the HD model, TM engineers have utilised weight savings from the full-body carbon construction and shifted the Inertia Generator closer to the heel, enabling a draw-bias and extreme MOI.
Who’s it for: Considered the most stable and forgiving driver in the family, the HD is perfect for higher handicappers or game-improvers.
TaylorMade Stealth 2 Fairways – It’s Like a Cheat Code
Featuring a 3D carbon crown and precision CG for higher launch, the all-new Stealth 2 Fairways are designed to help golfers take on any shot that stands in their way. Specifically engineered to inspire confidence, these new clubs will help to you launch the ball with ease, whether that’s off the deck or off the tee.
With tweaked Inverted Cone Technology, TM is giving golfers more speed and performance than ever before. The advanced face design is the thinnest at true centre and around the edges, with a thicker mantle surrounding centre face. An advanced laser alignment system stretches across the top of the face to deliver a subtle yet powerful alignment tool that’s clean and minimalistic.
3 Models to Help you Find Distance
STEALTH 2 PLUS
Fact Finder: Featuring a massive 50g sliding weight, the Plus creates three fairway woods in one. Allowing you to control launch, spin and distance with just a few twists of the wrench. Shift the weight back for higher launch and stability; leave the weight centred for versatile performance; or shift the weight forward for a low-spin ball flight with maximum distance.
Who’s it for: Aimed at the better player, the adjustable technology could make it an option for most.
STEALTH 2
Fact Finder: The Stealth 2 model features an even lower CG than the original Stealth design to offer higher launch. The reshaped 3D carbon crown pulls mass away from the high toe, making way for a heavy internal weight to be positioned at the rear of the club.
Who’s it for: With a neutral ball flight, it’s aimed at the majority of golfers.
STEALTH 2 HD
Fact Finder: Featuring a larger, low-profile sole, the HD will hug the ground at address and make it easier to achieve launch. Internal weighting also encourages a draw-bias ball flight.
Who’s it for: This oversized (200cc) head combines with low CG to offer increased confidence and playability for golfers of every skill level.
TaylorMade Stealth 2 Rescues – Distance. Forgiveness. Playability.
Featuring Advanced Inverted Cone Technology and precision CG placement, the new Stealth 2 rescues are designed to offer every level of player the ultimate in distance, forgiveness and playability. Building on from the success of the Stealth range, the Stealth 2 rescues feature three (instead of 2) models. Explore the game-changing clubs below.
STEALTH 2 PLUS
Fact Finder: With advanced ICT and Tour-inspired shaping, the Plus model combines control and workability with the added forgiveness of a rescue. A V Steel Sole design is a TM modern classic, improving turf interaction and versatility.
Who’s it for: With its compact design, the Plus lends itself to enhanced shot making and will appeal to the better players among us.
STEALTH 2
Fact Finder: With the CG positioned lower in the head (compared to the original Stealth), a more centred CG projection is delivered, helping to achieve optimal launch and spin. A mass pad positioned at the back of the club further increases MOI for even greater forgiveness and playability.
Who’s it for: With a V Steel Sole design and Speed Pocket technology, this is the standard model that will fit the majority of player’s needs.
STEALTH 2 HD
Fact Finder: The HD model features a larger overall profile and a deep CG, designed to deliver high launching shots that will travel long-iron distances. With higher lofts, the HD are easy to launch and will provide great success for a wide range of golfers, while the draw-bias helps keep shots on target.
Who’s it for: A larger profile and draw-bias makes these great for game-improvers or mid-high handicappers.
TaylorMade Stealth HD Irons – Expect Better Shots More Often
“For the entry-level or struggling golfer, just getting the ball in the air and seeing that thing take flight is a special moment. We leaned into that idea with Stealth HD, and the result is even better than we imagined at the start.”
- MATT BOVEE, TAYLORMADE’S DIRECTOR OF PRODUCT CREATION, IRONS
The first step in designing the new HD irons was to establish and define “success” for those golfers that are newer to the game. TaylorMade set about interviewing and testing clubs with real-life golfers looking for the best in game-improvement irons. The result is a collection of irons engineered to deliver high launching distance with draw bias that inspires the confidence to expect better shots.
Featuring an ultra-low CG that progressively shifts higher throughout the set, you can expect easier launch and playability in the long irons, and optimised trajectory and spin in the scoring clubs. The performance shape of these irons has been specifically employed to maximise distance and forgiveness. While the increased curvature on the sole promotes smooth turf interaction.
The brand’s proprietary Cap Back Design unlocks the next level of game improvement irons. The unique multi-material construction promotes better forgiveness, distance and feel. A soft ECHO Damping System stretches from the heel to toe, absorbing unwanted vibrations and improving feel as well as maximising face flexibility.
