The standout feature of the Stealth 2 line is the Nano textured 60X Carbon Twist Face that has a newly optimized profile on the back of the face that incorporates TaylorMade’s famous Inverted Cone Technology (ICT) to better maintain ball speeds on mishits.
MORE SPEED
The 60-layer Carbon Fiber Twist Face ushered in a new level of speed for TaylorMade’s Stealth drivers. By reducing the weight in the face, TaylorMade was able to reposition extra mass behind the hitting area for a more efficient transfer of energy at impact.
LESS SPIN
RPMs dropped across the board for all three models. On average, the Stealth 2 and Stealth 2 HD were roughly 300 RPMs lower spinning than their predecessors.
The standard Stealth 2 foregoes the sliding weight track for a 25g weight in the rear inertia generator for more forgiveness
High Launch/Low Spin
Offers a slightly higher launch profile, while still providing lower spin and hosel adjustability. The Stealth 2 driver comes in lofts of 9°, 10.5°, and 12° (RH only).
The Stealth 2 Plus is the most adjustable model and offers a 15g sliding weight to allow for precise tuning of ball flight and player strike location. The driver comes in lofts of 8°(RH only), 9° and 10.5°.
Low Spin
This model is the lowest-spinning driver among the Stealth 2 iine.
Low Launch
With the lowest launch (10 degrees) of any driver tested this model isn’t for the golfers who struggle to get the ball airborne.
The standout feature of the Stealth 2 line is the Nano textured 60X Carbon Twist Face which has a newly optimized profile on the back of the face that incorporates TaylorMade’s famous Inverted Cone Technology (ICT) to better maintain ball speeds on shots hit away from center.
This is achieved by moving around layers that run through the face structure to produce thicker and thinner areas, with the byproduct being a face that is 2g lighter than the original (24g vs the original 26g) yet stronger than before.
The final part of the carbon puzzle for TaylorMade was the rear ring that connects the components of the driver. Rather than using aluminum as TaylorMade has in the past with the Sim2 and the original Stealth, the Stealth 2’s rear ring is composed of a lighter and stronger carbon fiber reinforced composite. This lighter ring has allowed engineers to free up even more discretionary mass to place in the inertia generator weight in the rear of the driver, and in the case of the Stealth 2 Plus freed up 5 more grams to place in the sliding adjustable track (15g total) for more ball flight control.
Add in these new features with the existing aerodynamically tuned shape, hosel adjustability, and through slot speed pocket, and you have a finely tuned carbon driving machine.
