Performance index
Six researched ratings, lower (blue) through to elite (gold).
Where it wins
- Looks83
- Distance78
- Feel78
Watch
Rated highest for looks and distance; its softest dimension is workability.
You chase ball speed and distance, strike it fairly well, and want a neutral, no-bias head.
You want a solid titanium feel, low spin (the Stealth Plus) or slice help (the Stealth HD).
Pros
- Real ball speed and distance from the light carbon face
- A higher MOI than the low-spin Stealth Plus, with no draw bias
- A bold, distinctive red face
Cons
- Polarizing — it splits opinion on feel, sound and forgiveness
- A soft, muted carbon sound that some dislike
- No movable weight to tune a bias
By dimension
Forgiveness
SolidA divisive one — the carbon face frees weight for a higher MOI, but it wants a good strike.
Distance
StrongThe headline is ball speed — the light carbon face is fast, and a middled strike goes a long way.
Workability
FairA neutral, no-bias all-rounder — no movable weight and no draw lean, with a little shaping by hand.
Feel
StrongA cushioned, quiet strike — the carbon face swallows the buzz at impact, which some prefer and others find muffled.
Sound
StrongA muted, slightly higher-pitched note than the SIM2 — much-debated, and softer than a titanium face.
Looks at address
ExcellentThe bold red carbon face stands out under a clean crown — a striking, love-it-or-not look.
