Why so many Stealth drivers for sale?

[scbird]

I think because a lot of golfers hit with the face open and stealth is set up super open if you’re in this boat. I did try it in a fitting and it was slice city.

I never got along with Twist-Face. Not even sure if TM still does TF, but my normal miss was a push fade because of a lateral slide, and TF turned it into a nasty slice.

I've read about the unforgiving nature of the SLDR. Although my buddy won one in a tourney and has been gaming it successfully for years. I'm using the mini driver version and at least it mostly keeps me in shorter grass.

Is your buddy a decent ball striker? Square it up and hit it around the middle and it will go forever.

Putting ego aside and lofting up was also important with that head. Saw a lot of people come in and hit ultra low spin knucklers 20 feet off the ground with their "usual" loft. Bumping it up a few degrees would increase spin and loft somewhat, but this was a club you really needed to dial in the numbers on to be playable.

I had a Stealth Plus for a portion of last year and found similar.

Was a bomber when squared up, but my miss is a push left (as a lefty) and this club really exaggerated that miss.

He has a tight draw. Shoots in the 80s. Picked up golf later in life but a good athlete. Ticks me off.

The sldr was one of the worst drivers on miss hits ever made. You can get a 2 or 3 gen old driver for 300-400 bucks that’s way better than anything made during the sldr era

Not the worst driver ever made. IMO it is the longest TM driver ever when hit on the button since its COG is so close and low to its face. That extra distance comes at a cost, extra unforgiveness.

Corey Connors still games the Ping G400.

I have the 410 and wouldn't trade it for anything else. Even the stock CB shaft has tight dispersion and good distance.

[RobertThompson]

Actually he switched to the new PING driver several months ago.

Saw this... it must be out of date. Cheers

[RobertThompson]

He did play it until a couple of months ago. I spoke to him about it in March, I believe, and he'd made the switch then.

Could also be there is so many for sale because a few weeks ago costco.com had them for 299 after 80 off.

[elmeroil]

I was wondering the same after seeing a bunch in the used bin at Fore Golfers Only last week.

[dmcdam]

There does seem to be a lot of used Stealths. Could be they didn't meet expectations or maybe just that they sold so many of them so more will show up on the used market. Could be some of each too.

[RobertThompson]

If I were guessing, I'd think they overproduced based on potential Covid marketing demand and were left with ones they couldn't sell.

Yeah - this is from March - https://www.golfwrx.com/707815/corey...tb-2023-march/
