TaylorMade Golf Club STEALTH HD 10.5* Driver Stiff Graphite New

My previous driver is/was a SIM2 Max / OEM Ventus 5S. The Stealth has the Ascent in S. The Stealth is constantly ~2mph faster, and spins about 300 rpms less. On optimal impacts, it's clearly longer. On what I'd call good swings, where one would expect to be somewhere on the fairway, the SIM is clearly better. Switching shafts shows that most of this behavior is the head. Overall, I think that TM was out to show that they could produce a driver range that actually does go further and faster, and they've succeeded. If you're not happy with your current model, and distance is your main goal, it's probably as good as it gets currently.

I switched to TaylorMade irons last year and figured I would try out their drivers. I purchased a Ping G425 not too long ago, but as soon as I put the Stealth behind the ball I knew there was going to be a change. The look at address just fit my eye so much better. After a few swings, I was also getting more distance and consistent ball flight, even on slight mishits (I usually have a toe miss). My first trip to the course after the purchase was one of the best driving rounds I've ever had. It's a great driver and will probably hold the spot in my bag for a while. One other thing, I love the sound of this driver (I did not like the sound of the G425); however, don't go by the sound if you test it indoors. Like most clubs, it sounds far better outside and it's far easier to tell mishits from sweet spot strikes outside.
