TaylorMade Stealth Plus Rescue Hybrid
Who’s It For?
The new TaylorMade Stealth line extends well beyond drivers and fairway woods, as the excellent Stealth Rescue and Stealth Rescue Plus+ hybrids prove. The Stealth Rescue clubs both boast a slew of technological innovations that make them suited for two different types of golfers. Higher handicap golfers may well end up taking a longer look at the Stealth Rescue, which sports a more confidence-inspiring profile, and will launch the ball slightly higher with less spin. With a relatively sleeker profile and an additional low-loft option, the adjustable TaylorMade Stealth Rescue Plus+ appears to fit the lower handicap golfer better.
The Tech Story
Adjustability is one of the better player’s most desired characteristics as it relates to metal woods, hybrids included. With a +/- 1.5° loft sleeve, a golfer can alter the face angle of the Stealth Rescue Plus+ at will, allowing them to optimize their trajectory with the twist of a wrench. Also, the new V Steel Sole Design only bolsters the forgiveness of the Stealth, while also improving turf interaction and optimizing launch properties. Finally, the Thru-Slot Speed Pocket design makes the driver extremely hot without sacrificing that added forgiveness, particularly on low face strikes.
