Callaway has released the new Chrome Tour Family golf balls, including the Chrome Tour, Chrome Tour X, and Chrome Soft.
On Tuesday, Callaway unveiled the next generation of its premium golf balls, officially introducing the Chrome Tour Family 2026. The lineup includes the Chrome Tour, Chrome Tour X, and Chrome Soft models, designed specifically for ambitious golfers who value tour-level performance, consistent ball flight, and precise feel. Pre-sales begin January 6 at 3 PM, with worldwide retail availability starting January 30, 2026.
Focus on Speed and Consistency
At the heart of the new Chrome Tour Family is Callaway’s highlighted Speed Technology. Central to this innovation is the new Tour Fast Mantle, featuring an optimized core and layer system that increases ball speed and adds distance. The goal is to provide a consistent performance level across all clubs. This concept is supported by the Advanced Seamless Tour Aero®, which Callaway states delivers a high, stable ball flight with exceptional carry and consistency on every shot.
Another key component is Precision Technology, a comprehensive development approach aligning design, manufacturing, and testing in detail. The result is a golf ball that delivers reproducible results, offering players maximum reliability on the course.
Chrome Tour and Chrome Tour X: Tour-Level Performance Details
The Chrome Tour and Chrome Tour X models are 4-piece golf balls clearly positioned in the tour segment. Both feature a Precision Tour urethane cover that offers high control and feel, especially in short game situations. The Chrome Tour provides a medium feel, combining low spin on long shots with high spin around the green and excellent workability.
The Chrome Tour X targets players who prefer a slightly firmer ball feel. It emphasizes control, consistency, and playability, enhanced by a design within the Chrome Family geared toward maximum performance.
Chrome Soft: Soft Feel with Tour Expectations
Completing the new family is the Chrome Soft, a 3-piece golf ball. It continues the tradition of combining outstanding tour performance with a particularly soft feel. Callaway uses a urethane cover here as well, designed for high spin rates in the short game and precise control on approach shots. The Chrome Soft is aimed at players who desire a soft feel without sacrificing performance.
Pricing and Market Launch
Callaway positions the new Chrome Family in the premium segment. In Germany, the balls will be available for €65 per dozen.
With the Chrome Family 2026, Callaway reaffirms its commitment to providing the latest golf ball technology for top performance needs—tailored to player type but united by speed, consistency, and precision.
