Head to head

TaylorMade Stealth 2 vs Stealth 2 HD driver

Choose the HD if your drives curve right or fly low.

Choose the Stealth 2 if your flight is already straight and you want less spin or an extra stiff shaft.

Both are 460cc heads with TaylorMade's carbon Twist Face, a carbon composite ring and a 4° loft sleeve, in 9°, 10.5° and 12°, left-handed in 9° and 10.5° only. TaylorMade's chart rated both highest for forgiveness, and it called the HD the most stable and forgiving driver in the family: the HD sets its weight toward the heel for a draw, is a quarter inch shorter (45.5 inches against 45.75) with a lie two degrees more upright, and is rated to launch high with mid spin, against mid-high and mid-low for the Stealth 2. The HD scores 4 of 5 here and the Stealth 2 3. The HD came in senior, regular and stiff on one Fujikura shaft; the Stealth 2 adds an extra stiff.
