Which is better for a complete beginner?

The Tour Edge TE-200. It gives you every club plus a bag for $529.91, while the Stealth 2 HD is a single 3-wood at $119.95.

Can I buy the Stealth 2 HD instead of a full set?

No. It is one fairway wood. You would still need a driver, irons, wedges and a putter.

Is the Stealth 2 HD worth the extra over a set fairway wood?

If you already have clubs, yes. Its 200cc head and draw bias are more forgiving than the TE-200's 15° 3-wood, and $119.95 is a low entry price for a TaylorMade fairway.

Which is more forgiving?

The Stealth 2 HD, club for club. It is built as TaylorMade's highest-MOI fairway wood with draw bias; the TE-200 set is forgiving for its price but entry-level.

Does the TE-200 set include a bag?

Yes. The 12-piece set includes a lightweight TE-200 stand bag along with the driver, woods, hybrid, irons, sand wedge and putter.

The Stealth 2 HD should hold up better as a single club, with a titanium face and name-brand shaft. The TE-200 set is built to a starter price point.
