What TaylorMade say about the Stealth Plus rescues:
“Engineered to complement the performance of Stealth fairways, the new Stealth Plus Rescue was designed to deliver the distance and forgiveness of a hybrid with the workability and control of an iron.
“The Stealth Plus+ Rescue is a shot makers dream. A high-toe profile and compact overall footprint make it easier to control trajectory and shot shape, while maintaining added forgiveness compared to long irons.
“The ultra-strong C300 Steel face delivers powerful ball speed and is paired with Twist Face, the corrective face curvature designed to give everyone straighter shots on mis-hits.
“A redesigned V Steel sole positions weight low in the club to encourage optimal launch properties and enhances turf interaction to make this club a weapon from any lie. The Thru-Slot Speed Pocket provides optimal forgiveness on shots hit low on the face.”

Verdict: Are TaylorMade Stealth Plus rescues any good?

The Stealth vs Stealth Plus Rescues is largely down to ability with the larger clubhead of the Stealth more forgiving.
The Plus model is much more compact, but the performance is seriously good from just about any lie on the course. Expect to hit it straight and find more greens from distance.
