 Go ball. Go. Carry. Carry. That's got to be arguably the biggest ball I've hit on camera. Wow. Oh my word. Today's video is absolutely mind blowing. That's huge. That's huge. Oh my word. This is ridiculous. This is one incredible head to head seriously. This is awesome right now. My word. I cannot believe these two are doing this. Yet this video is absolutely ridiculous what's gone on so far and we'll see how this pans out. I'll be on the course very very shortly but what are we doing? Well we've got arguably what I've been mulling over which is two drivers. The Stealth, the standard Stealth product from Taylor Made with a 44.5 in shaft in it and the Rogue from Callaway Max product and again I've got the shorter length shaft in it. The numbers that we are producing are absolutely phenomenal. Wait till you see what we've recorded in terms of data and we'll also get out on the course and see if these kind of things ring true out there but right now my mind is blown. So if you've seen last week's video you'll know that a driver that I got fit for back in November, December time in terms of Taylor Made Stealth. The shaft that I've been waiting for for a couple of months actually eventually arrived as a Pro4's V2. It's a high launch shaft. It was a regular and it's shortened down to 44.5 inch. I did say in the initial video that it was stiff but this is a regular version. Now a lot of you asked for a shorter shaft into the Rogue and would it make the same sort of differences in terms of performance as what we've seen in the Stealth. Now I can't get the exact shaft for the Callaway product but what I have got is the RCH 45g regular 44.5 inch shaft that I used really favourably in the B21 drive which was a huge fan of. So they're both exactly the same length of shaft. They're both regular shaft. There's a slight difference in the weight of them but I'm really interested to see just how these two perform with these shafts in and believe me it's very impressive. Now I hit one of these two drivers an incredible 265 yards. Yes 265 yards with a 44.5 inch length shaft. Work that one out. Now we all know that drive all data is quite honestly a load of times and means very very little indeed and there'll be plenty of you out there of question and smash factors. Question was Trackman set an altitude which it's not and all other reason as to why on earth this ball has not carried 265 yards. My answer to that is quite simple. Take from it what from it what you will. All things are relative and if you want to take 5, 10, 15, 20 yards off of each of the drives and come to a conclusion that you're more comfortable with the difference between the two they will still be the same. Right let's come clean early in this video and be clear that the club that hit the drive 265 yards and by far the longest I've ever recorded on a video on Trackman full stop was in fact the Callaway Rogue yet Rogue hit the ball 265 yards carry. The stealth by comparison the longest ball it was stealth was 256 yards carry and either way they're phenomenal numbers for me. They are really really impressive numbers and what I want to see and I'll give you the full data as I always do at the very end for people who want to go through it and scrutinise it but every ball was hit pretty solid dispersion was good carry was good I put everything down to this 44 and a half inch shaft what I want to see is out here on the golf course can I replicate those kind of numbers and also what happens out here in reality in terms of that dispersion. So for the record round one will certainly go to the Rogue which is this ball here and then down on the other side of the fairway hopefully you can see that one is the stealth. We all know that 10-15 yards in terms of distance means very little because the average golfer well my strike has got plenty of variables in it so round one to Rogue we'll see what happens on the next one shall we? You see the thing is for me the biggest thing I take from this is the length of shaft has been the most important factor in this test and the biggest I open that I've seen in the last three or four years of testing because it's made huge huge differences and clearly is a key factor in both of these drivers performances at least in my hands. Right so next up was our second drive and as you can see nothing to split them both slightly weaker drives not my best trying to avoid the water which is the other side of that black and white marker where you see the ball rushes and they're not quite on the fairway but there's nothing to split them in terms of yardage. Has he got it? Has he got it? He's only gone and got it and ultimately the end of this video the questions will remain exactly the same. Did the average golfer really at that ball out there at 265 yards? Is Trackman a load of absolute nonsense? How many takes was it to get that put in the hole? But ultimately one more question is stealth better than road? Are any of them any good? But ultimately none of it makes a jot of difference because the only thing that matters is that you go out and try these drivers and see for yourself or one more question can a 44 and a half inch driver really help an average golfer? A lot of questions in there but only you have the answers. Right next two shots you're going to see me hit first of all with the stealth as good as I've got absolutely nailed this one really really long big high carry arguably in softer conditions this one would have reached the green and I'll show you that very very shortly. Rogue again really good strike but a clear difference between the two in terms of ball flight and that resulted in these two balls where they finished. Right in front of us there is the ball of the rogue which was okay finished yours of that bunker that's the green we're going to but if you can see in the distance and I mean in the distance there's probably a good 30 yards extra carry on stealth and like I said if you're in drier conditions that one's bouncing onto the green put it into perspective and to take our 265 yard carry from the track man that flag was just over 300 yards to the green I reckon we've carried that pretty much well we've definitely carried at least 265 on the fly track man's never too far off you know sit down sit down oh that's a decent birdie chance and not a bad wedge in more than happy with that and we could go all day long comparing shot for shot here out in the course and the likelihood is the outcome would be the same when I put a good swing on one club and a bad swing on another the results will end up being invariably different and that's what we're keeping on seeing the only thing that is definite is that these two clubs perform incredibly well and they both perform incredibly well with a shorter shaft on right so video ends here in the warmth in the van a little bit cold today in the UK but my evaluation and summary of these two clubs is I'm a fan of both of them I can't hide the fact I know sometimes there's very much a sort of tailor-made camp and a Callaway camp I sit in neither really because I could arguably quite comfortably game either of these and I wouldn't complain the one shining light for me like I said in these recent tests and again I did it in last years as well was the shorter length shaft and greater control finding the middle of that club phase is ultimately where the ball speed is yes they're more forgiving than they used to be but right out the middle is where it's all about and that shorter length shaft for me seems to be that I find the centre a little bit more often a little bit more control when you get out in the fairways you've seen today that are not banging it down the middle of the fairway there's some left there's some right that's always going to be down to the quality of your capabilities and your swing let's not kid ourselves but they just both perform really really well and you're going to choose one or the other if you're in the market that is for a driver based on some personal preferences as they always saying that would be to do with the way it looks the way it sits at address those kind of things and and which camp you sort of sit in because I know that sometimes that's the way it goes but anyway I hope you enjoyed that test I did too if you've been watching the last few weeks videos I am very much chopping and changing between these two drivers and I probably still will do to be honest with you for the foreseeable future until I can decide on ultimately which one I think is the best suited for me on a personal level right as ever thank you for watching both have been available for quite some time now in in retail so I want to know who's got them who's tried both what were your differences who's into this idea of 44 and a half in shafts give me all the feedback you want and as ever I appreciate you watching and getting involved with the channel see yw'l sy'n
