Callaway has launched its new Chrome Tour Family golf balls, including the Chrome Tour, Chrome Tour X, and Chrome Soft models.
On Tuesday, Callaway unveiled the next generation of its premium golf balls with the official launch of the Chrome Tour Family 2026. Featuring the Chrome Tour, Chrome Tour X, and Chrome Soft models, the manufacturer expands its portfolio to target ambitious golfers who value tour-level performance, consistent ball flight, and precise feel. The pre-sale starts on January 6 at 3 PM, with global retail availability beginning January 30, 2026.
Focus on Speed and Consistency
At the core of the new Chrome Tour Family is Callaway’s highlighted Speed Technology. Central to this development is the new Tour Fast Mantle, which, through an optimized core and layer system, increases ball speed and distance. The goal is to deliver consistent performance across all clubs. This concept is supported by the Advanced Seamless Tour Aero®, which according to Callaway provides a high, stable ball flight as well as exceptional flight and distance consistency on every shot.
Another key component is the Precision Technology, a holistic development approach where design, manufacturing, and testing are meticulously aligned. The result is a golf ball that delivers reproducible results and maximum reliability for players.
Chrome Tour and Chrome Tour X: Detailed Tour Performance
The Chrome Tour and Chrome Tour X models are designed as 4-piece golf balls clearly positioned in the tour segment. Both variants feature a Precision Tour Urethane Cover, providing excellent control and feel especially in short game situations. The Chrome Tour offers a medium feel and combines low spin on long shots with high spin around the green and high workability.
The Chrome Tour X targets players who prefer a firmer ball characteristic. Control, consistency, and playability remain key, enhanced by a design optimized for maximum performance within the Chrome Family.
Chrome Soft: Soft Feel with Tour-Level Performance
The Chrome Soft completes the family as a 3-piece golf ball. It continues the brand’s promise to combine outstanding tour performance with an exceptionally soft feel. Callaway also uses a urethane cover here, developed to deliver high spin rates in the short game and precise control on approach shots. The Chrome Soft is aimed at players who prefer a softer feel without compromising performance.
Pricing and Market Launch
Callaway positions the new Chrome Family in the premium segment. In Germany, the balls will retail for €65 per dozen.
With the 2026 Chrome Family, Callaway reaffirms its commitment to providing cutting-edge golf ball technology for top performance demands – tailored by player type but united by speed, consistency, and precision.
