The TaylorMade Qi10 family of drivers, the third generation to feature a face made of carbon composite, further unlock the lightweight material’s potential.
TaylorMade Stealth 2 drivers take another bold step in moving to fully carbon composite constructions, this time with special attention to making mis-hits more like centre hits.
A carbon-composite face – not the crown or even the body as we’ve seen in various stages over the past 15 years or so, but the part of the club that makes contact with the ball – is the foundation for TaylorMade’s three new Stealth drivers.
Despite Mickelson’s best efforts to hide any identifying marks on the club, the bat is a TaylorMade Original One Mini driver with a Fujikura Ventus Black 7x shaft.
At the Farmers Insurance Open on the PGA Tour, that meant a new driver shaft and wedge grind for Adam Scott, a putter switch for Jon Rahm and Lefty doing Lefty things. On the European Tour, Paul Casey had a new driver in the bag for his win in Dubai.
To suggest that the three new TaylorMade SIM2 drivers – SIM2, SIM2 Max and SIM2 Max•D – are simply a more-of-the-same follow-up to last year’s trio of SIM drivers is to suggest that Terminator 2 is merely The Terminator with a better motorcycle.
