Carbon face or the Titleist? I wanted the one that stays in play. Stealth 2 sells the face. GT2 sells the miss. That is the fork.

The Stealth 2 for carbon face technology and raw distance; the GT2 for multi-material precision engineering and tight dispersion. Both at the premium end of the market.

TaylorMade Stealth 2: 60-layer carbon Twist Face generates ball speed more efficiently than titanium across wider area. High peak ball speeds among best in class. Twist Face correction helps recover heel and toe misses. Explicitly engineered for distance. High launch, manageable spin. Lively feel at impact. Price: ~$599.

Titleist GT2: Mid-MOI option built for distance alongside tighter shot dispersion. Multi-material construction prioritizes consistent performance over peak ball speed. Tighter shot pattern than Stealth 2 in most independent testing. Traditional, cleaner driver aesthetic. Price: ~$599.

Head to head:

– Raw distance: TaylorMade Stealth 2 on center strikes

– Dispersion/accuracy: Titleist GT2 (particularly for players with varied strike patterns)

– Sound/feel: Stealth 2 livelier and louder; GT2 more muted and controlled

– Aesthetics: Titleist traditional look vs. Stealth 2 distinctive dark carbon

Stealth 2 for players prioritizing maximum distance willing to trade some dispersion. GT2 for competitive golfers who value accuracy and want consistent performance across the face.
