According to GolfSpan, Woods uses a TaylorMade Stealth Plus driver. Despite his review of the Stealth 2, it is not a common find in his bag. The Stealth Plus is designed specifically for hitters like Woods, who are built for faster swing speeds.
All the other clubs in his bag are made by TaylorMade too, except for his putter. For this, he uses a Scotty Cameron GSS Newport 2, which is used to provide the optimal feel, topspin, and immediate roll forward.
