Head to head

Callaway Paradym vs TaylorMade Stealth 2 driver

Choose the Paradym if you want to set the flight with a sliding weight or need a left-handed 12°.

Choose the Stealth 2 for a carbon-faced head.

Both are their maker's all-round driver of the same season, rated highest for forgiveness on their charts beside a more forgiving sibling (the Paradym X, the draw-biased Stealth 2 HD), so both score 3 of 5 here. Both are 460cc with a neutral flight, 45.75 inches long as standard. The Paradym has a 15-gram weight that slides along the back to correct the shot's shape, and Callaway rates it for a high launch and low spin; the Stealth 2 has a carbon face, a carbon composite ring and a fixed 25-gram weight at the back, rated for a mid-high launch and mid-low spin, and its 12° was right-handed only. Both came in a senior flex, the Paradym as Callaway's Light.

    Callaway Paradym

    Callaway's 2023 all-round driver, which it called its best combination of distance, forgiveness and adjustability: a carbon body and a 15-gram weight that slides along the back to correct the shot's shape, in 9°, 10.5° or 12°.
