TaylorMade Stealth Rescue

The 3D carbon crown relocates 7 grams of mass, creating a hybrid that's easy to launch with incredible stability — a 15% higher MOI compared to SIM Max. Off-center hits with the Stealth were remarkably close to pure strikes. Twist Face technology helps keep the ball in play on off center shots, and the Speed Pocket optimises ball speed and augments forgiveness during impacts on the lower face. Spin standard deviation of just 119 rpm across all shots — exceptional strike-to-strike consistency. Top-tier forgiveness for a GI hybrid — 15% MOI bump over SIM Max + carbon crown CG perimeter + Twist Face + Speed Pocket.

Independent testing ranked the Stealth Rescue the 2nd longest of 22 hybrids tested with a 225-yard carry distance. 131 mph average ball speed + 13.5° launch + 3,095 rpm spin in 19° loft testing. Average 210 yards of carry distance — an improvement of about 10 yards over the prior gamer. C300 steel face along with Speed Pocket — no shortage of speed potential from the tee or turf. Top-tier distance — 2nd longest of 22 hybrids tested + 131mph ball speed + +10yd carry improvement vs prior gamer.

The standard Stealth lacks adjustability and has a tendency to stay extremely straight due to its twist face technology — less suitable for players who want to shape their shots. High-launch / mid-low spin profile — GI character, not workable. Higher handicap golfers may well end up taking a longer look at the Stealth Rescue, which sports a more confidence-inspiring profile. Mid-tier workability — Twist Face is explicitly designed to neutralise shape; standard Stealth is the GI variant in the family, not the tour-shape Plus.

The Stealth Rescue features a firmer feel off the high strength C300 steel face. C300 material for the face along with the Speed Pocket — no shortage of speed potential. Easy to hit with a stable penetrating trajectory. Above-average feel — firm C300 steel face with stable, responsive impact character.

Great acoustics at impact. Considerable effort was put into the acoustic profile of the Stealth line — curvature, shape, and internal stiffening ribs to dial in acoustics. Stable acoustic profile across strike locations. Above-average sound — engineered acoustics with internal stiffening ribs + carbon crown deadens unwanted resonance.

The Stealth is one of the best-looking hybrids — the all-black crown and red detailing received very positive reactions from golfers. Advanced Laser Alignment feature — directional alignment aid. Tester feedback: probably the favorite rescue tested, ball turns over with ease, with a likeable look. Top-tier address — universally praised all-black carbon crown with red detailing + Advanced Laser Alignment + confidence-inspiring profile.
