Popular Post Golfspy_CG2 Posted January 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 4, 2022 WELCOME TO THE CARBONWOOD™ AGE: TAYLORMADE GOLF COMPANY ANNOUNCES HISTORIC TECHNOLOGICAL INNOVATION WITH THE CARBON FACE STEALTH™ FAMILY OF DRIVERS CARLSBAD, Calif. (January 4, 2022) – TaylorMade Golf Company builds on its history of groundbreaking innovation with the introduction of the Stealth™ Plus, Stealth and Stealth HD Carbonwood™ Drivers. Titanium has been the cornerstone of driver technology for the last 20 years, but even at the beginning of the Titanium driver era, TaylorMade engineers knew that every material had its limit. The future of driver performance begins with the one-of-one 60X Carbon Twist Face – comprised of 60 layers of carbon sheets strategically arranged to optimize energy transfer. Over two decades of research and development, TaylorMade pushed the boundaries and now created a new era of driver technology with 60X Carbon Twist Face drivers. Welcome to the Carbonwood age. WHY CARBON? The goal of any new technology is to create a measurable performance improvement for TaylorMade customers. The 60 layers of carbon fiber in Stealth help do exactly that by providing more speed. The red carbon face – yes, the face is red – delivers a higher COR and more precise face geometry through a lighter, but larger face. TaylorMade engineers took advantage of the lightweight carbon material by creating a 26g face, which is 40 percent lighter than a titanium face of equivalent size. Because of that weight savings, the face size of Stealth is 11 percent larger than SIM2 and SIM2 Max drivers and nearly 20 percent larger than the 2020 SIM driver. The weight savings and larger face size made possible by the 60X Carbon Twist Face delivered a stunning ball speed increase during player testing when comparing Stealth Plus and Stealth to the 2021 SIM2 and SIM2 Max drivers at better player swing speeds, unlocking a whole new level of driver performance. NANOTEXTURE FACE TECHNOLOGY TaylorMade’s 20-year journey to change the face of golf was made possible by an innovative nanotexture cover that sits on top of the 60 layers of carbon. The nanotexture cover is made from a thin polyurethane layer that creates a strong and flexible striking surface which serves to optimize distance based on improving launch conditions in both dry and wet conditions. This revolutionary technology creates the face texture needed to produce the ideal amount of friction between the face and the ball at impact to reduce spin at impact in dry conditions. The nanotexture face also features full-face scorelines designed to provide improved spin performance in wet conditions. The combination of the nanotexture cover, Twist Face® and TaylorMade’s ultra-flexible Thru-Slot Speed Pocket™ was engineered to produce forgiveness on strikes across the face. SHAPED FOR SPEED Despite a larger face, clubhead speed does not decline with Stealth. The asymmetric Inertia Generator creates advanced aerodynamics at the most critical phase of the swing – from the downswing to the moment right before impact. This breakthrough design optimizes clubhead speed, while also allowing additional weight to be placed at the rear of the club to encourage higher MOI, high launch and improved forgiveness. HOW DOES IT SOUND? Based on experience with older carbon headed clubs in the marketplace, it might expect the Stealth family of drivers to suffer from a muted and low-energy sound profile. However, through fine-tuned acoustic precision, engineers have been able to create a bright and powerful sound and feel profile that is true to the high standards of TaylorMade drivers through recent years. The sound and feel of Stealth has had an even better average sentiment rating in player testing compared to SIM2 and Tour player feedback has been overwhelmingly positive. THE 20-YEAR JOURNEY TaylorMade’s engineering and research and development teams began exploring carbon faces in 2000, with the first prototype created in 2003 featuring a titanium cover. Six years later, research into a polymer cover began in hopes to improve launch conditions. Then in 2012, a small-scale composite face production facility was built to support the 2013 launch of the limited-edition Japan-only Gloire Reserve driver. It served as a sign of readiness for this design platform and the progress of TaylorMade engineering. In 2016, new manufacturing techniques led to the first development of a 60-layer carbon face. Work on these new Stealth models began in earnest in 2018, some 18 years after the process began. In 2019, a state-of-the-art plant was commissioned and completed in 2021 to set the gold standard for high-volume production of composite parts. Every part of the process has been streamlined to reduce waste and increase efficiency. Simultaneously, additional facilities were constructed to bond the fully finished faces into castings. We arrive at today, 20 years later. TaylorMade ushers in the Carbonwood age. STEALTH PLUS Because of weight savings from the 60X Carbon Twist Face, engineers were able to incorporate the use of a 10g sliding weight track designed to help golfers control shot shape by shifting mass on the sole to create desired ball flight. Stealth Plus is designed to be the lowest spinning driver in the family. STEALTH Stealth benefits from the weight savings of the 60x Carbon Twist Face by more weight to be positioned low and deep in the head. This adds 15% more MOI when compared to Stealth Plus and is designed to provide 200-300 rpms more spin. STEALTH HD Often, standard draw bias designs promote a right-to-left ball flight at the expense of forgiveness. By utilizing the weight savings from the 60X Carbon Twist Face and shifting the Inertia Generator closer to the heel, we’re able to maintain draw-bias while creating the highest MOI in the Stealth family of drivers. While providing additional draw-bias, the Stealth HD will have similar back-spin performance to Stealth. STEALTH WOMEN’S The Stealth Women’s driver combines the technology of Stealth HD in a slightly lighter head weight and with a unique colorway and aesthetic. It maintains the high MOI head design for easy, high-launch with a touch of draw. SPECIFICATIONS, AVAILABILITY & PRICING Stealth Plus, Stealth and Stealth HD drivers will be available for preorder on January 4 and at retail on February 4, 2022.

RickyBobby_PR Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Honestly the first time in awhile I’m excited for a driver release. The story about the length of time that this technology has been in development and how they talk about how manufacturing processes change is cool. I think many in the crowd that bash releases and technology changes overlook things like the manufacturing process when they go on their yearly rants. I’m definitely looking forward to getting fit for this. New stock options from PX along with the previous releases and a good amount of upgrade shafts open up some interesting possibilities GolfSpy_SHARK, Nolan220, TR1PTIK and 3 others 6 Quote Driver: PXG 0811 X+ Proto w/UST Helium 5F4 Wood: TaylorMade M5 5W w/Accra TZ5 +1/2”, TaylorMade Sim 3W w/Aldila rogue white Hybrid: PXG Gen2 22* w/AD hybrid Irons: PXG Gen3 0311T w/Nippon modus 120 Wedges: TaylorMade MG2 50*, Tiger grind 56/60 Putter: Scotty Caemeron Super Rat1 Ball: Titleist Prov1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MNUte Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 For the driver itself, TXG and Rick Shiels' initial reviews make it seem like its another one in the line of very good to great Taylormade drivers. HOWEVER, I think a big thing to this one is the personalization, and I actually love that aspect of this driver. Being able to have a bit more control with regard to your clubs and being able to have a bit more fun and personality with them goes a long way towards setting itself apart.

GolfSpy BOS Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 I'm a little relieved that the official and professional photos of this driver look WAYYYYYYY better than the unofficial 1990's cellphone camera shots we were getting a few weeks ago. I'll need to see it in person but I still *think* I wouldn't like the look of the red face. I played around with the MyStealth+ configurator though... and the Matte Crown, chalk White body, and red accents, along with the gray face option looks like something I would bag.

Definitely not something my wallet can handle at the moment, but I am extremely intrigued by this release - especially after seeing Tiger using it at the PNC.

Lefty19 Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 At least we are not dehydrated on this forum unlike others. Some of them should be passed out from the lather and foaming of the mouths in preparation of ordering the driver. Do I think the driver will be good- yes Do I think the driver will be earth shattering- Maybe to some that just suck so bad, they can't find any decent part of the face. Do I think the driver to most will help- moderately more forgiving than the previous SIMs. Maybe a little more consistency. BIGGEST QUESTION: Do I think anyone gives a hairy rat's ARSE about my opinion---------- ahhhhh no.... LOL.

KC Golf Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 I am actually surprised the all carbon face of the Stealth is not selling for a further premium to the SIM 2 given its increased ball speeds and multilayer carbon face construction. I would think they are paying Tiger a ton of sponsor money to use and motivate sales for this driver too. With TM and its high priced sale strategies, I would think they would retail this at an even higher price point. I guess the cost of manufacturing could be lower than Titanium? Bonding with glue vs weldin and sanding?. So they can price it at this level and still make more profits? Curious if anyone knows how the manufacturing costs differ between this and traditional heads. I will curious to see if all the major OEMs will switch to an all carbon face in their drivers. Calloway's original all carbon driver never caught on for some reason, but I think it may have been its odd head shape vs its carbon face.

edingc Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Don't really have a lot to add to some of the comments here already, but I can at least say I'm very intrigued. Realistically, I know performance is largely at it's max, but TM doing something different is enough to make me want to hit it. I have never swung a TaylorMade driver...

Their clubs are always in line with the other big manufacturers such as Callaway and titleist.

It will be interesting to see how this moves for them. As mentioned in the article CT and COR are loosely related so I am intrigued to see if the flexibility in a carbon face lets them decouple this a bit more than titanium. I am sure that is still talking about those 1 to 2% gains, but get enough of those and its a noticeable difference for a player.
