Oohh…salty 2 – NIL loss on a pair of cheap goals. Thank you JR Golf for picking me back up. Can't wait to see the vid on adjusting lofts….Im always doing that with my 5 wood.
It's interesting that this club is hyped as having a "new" shape. It's the shape Barney Adams created decades ago. Nobody designed clubs better than Barney Adams. Taylormade thought so, too, and acquired the Adams company. They've been using the technology ever since.
I think titleist makes the best hybrids. For me the ts2 tsi2 tsr2 all as good as I can find. I don’t like square shaped hybrids. So callaway is out. Never felt Taylormade hybrids were as good quality. I didn’t love the dispersion. Ping play well. I just can’t get past sound and feel. Cobra are nice, just don’t love the sound or feel as the titleist
Pretty happy with my Sim Ti fw woods but I will start the season with a couple of Callaway Apex19 hybrids. Just have to wait and see if they will stay in the bag for the entire season.
I have a 2H coming in next week. With my game it replaces the 5W which was inconsistent at best for me. I thought I would like the base Stealth2 hybrid more but after hitting the plus it seemed to work better.
It's a knock-off of the Adam's hybrid, and looks + performs the same- its 6 year old technology- stolen from Adam's years ago! But instead of getting bad publicity and copyright problems, fines etc Taylor Made purchased Adam's!! 👍
I’m happy with my stealth driver,stealth HL fairway and stealth plus hybrid,as I only got fit for them in September last year,if I changed my clubs so soon my wife will castrate me
Given the price points and the marginal variation or improvements in clubs not sure upgrades are warranted. More can be achieved by golfers sometimes just tweaking existing clubs – maybe a 5 year upgrade cycle- and even more by improving bother aspects of their game and preparation – fitness, nutrition, course management, better practice system, pre shot and shot routine including pga (posture grip and alignment) that being said I am looking to fill a gap between my 6 iron and my 3 super hybrid. So far have tested and ruled out the paradigms, ping g430, cobra and more. Short listed only a previous years club – apex hybrid and will soon test the stealth 2 to see which if any give me the two filler and best numbers especially landing angel, tight dispersion, least drop off on off centre hits and looks sound and feel of course against the apex – now good value as a new one coming out later this year and prices dropping so may well me my choice unless the tm’s really outdo it. But bootpm line all clubs are good these days. All have great tech and all will only give marginal if any improvements over last couple of years models. Invest more elsewhere.
The top of that club looks nasty as tho it's been painted on with a globby black paint. much prefer the high gloss finish of my Titleist hybrids. Agree about the comments about Adams rebadged too.
That crown looks like plastic shrink wrap. Need to talk about offset. Most TM hybrids (and woods) are toed-in /closed. Not sure you want a hybrid that goes as far as your fairway!
I've noticed broke people hate on new golf clubs. If you can't afford it don't hate. Yes it's obviously gonna have similarities to oldies but it isn't the same. People just wanna make themselves feel better because they cannot afford it. 🤣😂
Looks strikingly similar to my ping Answer 3 hybrid, which I've had in my bag for the past 10 + years. Didn't look like a cheat code the way he was hitting it. Looked pretty easy to hit a poor shot with actually. Probably is a very good hybrid though based on the design. Taylormade does make some sweet clubs.

Would love a straight comparison between this and the Sim2 players hybrid. I would bet there is no difference apart from the crown of the head
Did you enjoy that – I wasn’t sure 😂😂
Can we see some ball data numbers like in the past. Watching you hit balls on the course shows us nothing about spin, launch, height and descent.

Bought the Taylor made sim 2 ti hybrid absolutely love it
Lovely looking hybrid James and very well reviewed
So similar in shape to the old Titleist 818h. Which to me is still one of the best ever hybrids.
Orange peel! Gotta take my polishers and smooth it out.
The hybrid looks like Callaway Apex Pro hybrid and the Adam's pro hybrid. Taylormade is using their technology they bought from Adam's in this hybrid.
Pretty happy with my Sim Ti fw woods but I will start the season with a couple of Callaway Apex19 hybrids. Just have to wait and see if they will stay in the bag for the entire season.
Just got the Stealth 2 5w. It’s just incredible and a real weapon even in my talentless hands.
Still gaming 19* TM Mid-Rescue – one of the best clubs ever made.
I went for a hybrid fitting, totally worth it!!!
"I've only hit this once" 0:21
Really?
Reminds me of the Adams hybrids
Need to see stealth 2 vs sim 2 @james plz 😊
Adams hybrids were the best ever made… and still are.
Good stuff 🔥🔥🇬🇧🇺🇸⛳️⛳️
Have yet to find a replacement for my TSi 3h
I have a 2H coming in next week. With my game it replaces the 5W which was inconsistent at best for me. I thought I would like the base Stealth2 hybrid more but after hitting the plus it seemed to work better.
Looks a lot like my adams red hybrid – maybe different on the inside? If only someone would cut them open
I am actually still very happy with my M5 BUT I do have SIM2 fairway woods in my bag

James, I can't state this enough, but your new swing? BUTTER. You strike the ball so much better, it's insane to compare. PLEASE do not revert.
I’m happy with my stealth driver,stealth HL fairway and stealth plus hybrid,as I only got fit for them in September last year,if I changed my clubs so soon my wife will castrate me
it look good behind the ball and sound nice but It doesn't look easy to hit😉
Got rid of my Stealth driver and replaced it with Cobra. But not the Aerojet, the Ltdx!
What I take from this is that Ping can remove the turbulators and replace them with carbon fibre dimples.
Looks like my Callaway Apex hybrids…..except, the crown looks unfinished.
I have the original stealth plus hybrid and it’s been amazing
Have to say I like the squarer toe on the new model 👀

great review! I really like how you used the shot tracer. which app are you using for these?
Your rough is our fairways at our local course lol
Crown looks like a golf ball lol Ill stick with my cobra 4 and 2,,,, love your videos,,,,they are delightful,,,,lol
TaylorMade must have a huge influencer marketing budget.
Look more like the Callaway Rogue Hybrid

No different to the Sim2 only the weight is at the front
Not a fan of that crown. Looks like a badly done DIY carbon wrap.
I'm still playing with my M3 17-degree hybrid. I love it, but it is now starting to look tired. Don't want to change it as it is so reliable!!!

This or the tour edge c722?
That’s not the rough, I don’t see any bare ground with a few small gum tree branches on it.
