Taylormade Stealth 2……it’s happening?????? Black and Red

[gbang15]

Og stealth is sleeker looking. Is it at least faster off the face?.. def looks like the sim2.. surprised the speed pocket is shorter as well

No idea why they went with silver weights, would look 100x better with either black or red weights. 
 

My TSR2 is completely safe after seeing this.

Even the headcovers are ugly 🤣

So they can $100 upcharge you for a custom one that doesn't look horrible. 

 

I'm sure it'll look fine in person but man cally and tm not impressing me with the looks so far.

Cobra and Ping aren't going to win any beauty contests either judging by what we've seen of those, think I'll be going down the TSR route. Shame as i thought callaways Rogue series is actually quite good looking as well as the Cobra LTDx range

Before I can make any comments I need to let all drivers moving forward for the remainder of forever marinate in the mind for at least 3 months before I comment on aesthetics. 
 

that being said, wish they got away from red & black.

I think sim2 was more forgiving. Stealth was a great driver when you hit it well. I ended up buying a tsr to replace it. It just spun up on off center hits for me

Me too on the trials I did but I might get a head if any going cheap. Certainly not worth real bucks.

[gbang15]

If it’s faster and feels better were all gonna get used to the looks lol. still a tm fanboy baby 

[FifeRiviera]

Visually unpleasing and that headcover might be the worst one i have seen since.. whenever

[pingplayer]

Not really good looking, looks cheap to me. 

[dbone919]

Im pretty underwhelmed and Im a TM driver guy. I have the stealth plus but didn’t get along with it as well as I had hoped. I wish Id have kept my Sim. Good chance for a different brand than normal in the driver slot next season.

Just look how different/better it could have looked? it took me 3 miniutes.

 

I love Taylormade but come on, that looks horrible in red.

Thats the point. They want it to be just good looking enough for most people to buy it, but also ugly enough for many to pay for the custom mystealth program.

Yeah, nothing new and exciting with this one. With that being said, can’t wait to hit it!

Lollll these do look miles better imo. Quick, hide. Tm is going to send you a naughty letter for this. 

 

I've always liked the more subtle plays on blue/gray/white TM had been using over the last 6-7 years. Red is just... In your face, overwhelming.

This is sim->sim2 all over again. I didn't hit sim2 until june-ish of the release year. I'll eventually hit it. But I have my stealth setup perfectly and I don't feel like doing driver testing next year. Especially since fairways this release cycle have some cool stuff going on....

I like it. Give me red/black all day b want expecting a drastic move away from the stealth. Considering this is the stealth2 and all that. It’s at the top of the list on drivers I want to try at this point.

Face is pretty much the same from what I have heard.

Since I had five Stealth Plus drivers this past year and now have a TSR3 driver, I will be trying this Stealth Plus 2 driver.

Just like every year, it will be a battle between Titlest, TM and Cally for me.  Can’t see anything beating the TSR though.

Haha, more carbon!  That's exciting.  Seriously though, I think this is pretty much in line with what most people were expecting once we found out it was going to be the Stealth2.  Just a tweak to a pretty good driver.  In theory, the extra carbon should allow for more weight manipulation with the front/rear weights.  I have to say the seam looks a little cleaner this time around.  I also like the gloss over matte.  

 

I am not going to even try and kid myself.  I will be ordering one lol.  I haven't been impressed enough with the TSR3 for it to just waltz into next season as my driver.  It doesn't seem to have that extra gear that the Stealth does.

what differences did you see moving from Stealth Plus to TSR. Stealth and I did not get along so I sent Callaway TDLS but the Ping G430 and TSR 3/4 have my eye for 2023.

As with all drivers for me, it is just a matter of looks at address, feel, and sound.  Results the same.

I’ll probably buy one too but I just cannot see it beating out the TSR4 for me.  The TSR4 has the extra gear that the others drivers lack.  It’s still fun testing out new gear though😃
