    Trottie may be a nice guy, but did he just lecture Mattie and Ian and during product launch? Classy way to diffuse the situation by Ian.

      Seen a few launch videos of Trottie with various people lately, and he doesn't shut up long enough to let anyone give an actual opinion on the clubs. Overall I like him, but man does he sound like a guy trying to shove this year's product down people's throats.

    Really hope the lads do a head to head of OG Steath+ v Stealth+ 2. As Ian has said in many videos, OG Stealth+ was by far the most popular FW at TXG last year. Said it wasn’t a fair fight and blew everything away. Is this really better?!?!🤯

    So glad you guys gave this its own video. Unbelievable amount of adjustability. Would love to see if you can dial it in even more back at the studio, maybe playing with different shafts in combination with weight/sleeve adjustments. Either way, I'm very interested in trying this myself. I have the Stealth 2 and it's awesome but might as well be a mini driver in most settings.

Honestly I think Taylor Made have done so much to improve their brand with brake through technology. I have try playing different brand and tested so many others brand before and Taylor Made has that open field that fit for all players.
