Strengths & trade-offs
What we liked
- Excellent forgiveness on mis-hits thanks to high MOI
- Noticeably fast ball speeds from the carbon face
- Adjustable hosel allows easy loft/lie customization
- Sleek, understated matte black finish
- Improved sound and feel over first-gen Stealth

In depth
The TaylorMade Stealth 2 driver represents the evolution of TaylorMade's groundbreaking 60X Carbon Twist Face technology, refining what was already a revolutionary approach to driver construction. Building on the original Stealth's success, this second-generation model retains the carbon fiber face construction that allows for thinner wall design and redistributed weight, but with updated engineering that improves forgiveness and ball speed retention across the entire face. Golfers who found the original Stealth's performance impressive will notice the Stealth 2 delivers even more consistency on off-center strikes, thanks to a revised internal structure that includes a new Inertia Generator positioned lower and further back in the clubhead, boosting MOI significantly compared to its predecessor.
At the heart of the Stealth 2's design philosophy is the continued use of carbon composite material covering more than 60 percent of the clubhead, a stark departure from traditional titanium-faced drivers still common in the market. This carbon-intensive construction allows TaylorMade engineers to strategically place discretionary weight exactly where it benefits golfers most, enhancing both distance and stability. The Twist Face technology, now refined for this generation, continues to correct for the natural gear effect that causes shots struck high-toe or low-heel to curve offline, effectively straightening out mishits and tightening dispersion patterns for golfers of varying skill levels. The result is a driver that feels explosive off the face while maintaining the workability that better players demand.
Adjustability remains a core feature of the Stealth 2, with TaylorMade's proven loft sleeve technology allowing golfers to fine-tune launch conditions across a range of settings to match their swing characteristics and optimize trajectory. The sole design incorporates strategic weighting options in select variants, giving fitters and golfers the ability to bias the center of gravity for a draw-bias or more neutral ball flight depending on individual needs. Available in standard, Plus, and HD versions, the Stealth 2 lineup caters to different swing speeds and shot shape preferences, making it a versatile addition to any golfer's bag whether they're chasing maximum distance, improved accuracy, or a blend of both in pursuit of lower scores.
What golfers say
Switched from an older TaylorMade driver and the difference in forgiveness is night and day. Mis-hits still go pretty far and straight.
Ball speed is impressive off the carbon face. Sound took some getting used to but overall very happy with the purchase.
Slightly more forgiving than the original Stealth. Adjustability is nice for dialing in trajectory. A bit pricey but worth it.
Fit for the stock shaft and it's been fantastic. Long, forgiving, and looks great at address.
