Head to head

TaylorMade Stealth vs SIM2 driver

Choose the Stealth for the higher launch or a 12°.

Choose the SIM2 if you strike it well and want a lower flight.

Both score 3 of 5 here. TaylorMade rated the Stealth highest for forgiveness on its 2022 chart, as the draw-biased Stealth HD was, and the SIM2 high on its 2021 chart, a step below the SIM2 Max; each chart grades one family against itself. The Stealth, a year newer, has TaylorMade's first carbon face, its weight set low and back, and a mid-high launch; the SIM2 has a 16-gram steel weight at the back and a low launch. Both are 460cc with a Twist Face and a 4° loft sleeve, 45.75 inches long, in 9° and 10.5° for either hand; the Stealth adds a right-handed 12°, the SIM2 a right-handed 8°.
