My local PGA Tour SS says rogue is outperforming stealth by a wide margin. They also say the sleeper is the cobra Ltd which seems to have a lot of great reviews all over with the testing gurus.

I can't contribute much to the discussion, only that I haven't seen anything jump out at me that makes me want to move away from my TSi3

EDIT: I also genuinely thought the Stealth face was an orange sticker for marketing. I can't wait to see the battle scars on them

The Stealth is ugly as advertised.
It does go straight. It’s no longer than the Sim2.

TSi3 will be staying in my bag.

Sticking with my TSi2 for the foreseeable.

Forgiveness and long enough.

I’ve heard from the guy who fitted my woods that the Stealth is a knuckle ball driver so the other aspects of ball flight weren’t better than the SIM2. Could have just been him though.

I’m averaging 10-12 fairways (out of 14) with my Ping G410. No reason for me to switch.

I’m due a new driver this year and my plan is to get a 2021 driver at a discount with the new ones out. From what I’ve read and been told there isn’t a significant difference

Best discounted drivers out there.

Mavrik
Ping G410
PXG 0811X & 0811 Prototype

I was not a fan of the TM SIM.

Check out the pics of the Stealth demo from the PGA Show. I was wondering how the face would wear

I just did my first Driver fitting ever and was deciding between Stealth and Ping G425

Glad I decided on the Ping G425

Yeah like I mentioned earlier, my dumbass thought the orange face was a marketing sticker lol.

And that was people within the industry hitting it lol. Imagine how the weekend warriors will hold up

I got fitted for a Rogue Max yesterday.

I don’t think the head itself is any hotter than my OG Epic, but he put me in a better shaft and ball

Be sure to look at the numbers before pulling the trigger on a new purchase.
Don’t assume the Rogue LS will give you less spin.

The Rogue LS was spinning twice as much as the Rogue Max for me and costing me about 20 yards.

That's interesting. I assume you used the same shaft in testing.

What shaft did you end up with ?

Yeah, tested the same shaft in both heads. I was around 3200-3300 spin with the LS, 1700-1800 with Max. He said it was unusual, but couldn’t argue the numbers.

Ended up with the tensei white raw shaft

Also, the chrome soft x balls were flying further than the LS balls

The new Chrome Soft X balls are suppose to be a big upgrade over previous models.

To me the Stealth is nothing but a marketing gimmick. And now at $600?

TSi2 all the way.
