Callaway has released the new Chrome Tour Family golf balls: Chrome Tour, Chrome Tour X, and Chrome Soft.
On Tuesday, Callaway unveiled the new generation of its premium golf balls, officially presenting the Chrome Tour Family 2026. With the models Chrome Tour, Chrome Tour X, and Chrome Soft, the manufacturer expands its portfolio targeting ambitious golfers who value tour performance, consistent ball flight, and precise feel. The pre-sale starts on January 6 at 3 PM, with worldwide availability from 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 Callaway claims provides high, stable ball flight and exceptional flight and distance consistency on every shot.
Another key element is Precision Technology, an all-encompassing development approach aligning design, manufacturing, and testing in detail. The result is a golf ball that delivers reproducible results, offering players maximum reliability during play.
Chrome Tour and Chrome Tour X: In-Depth Tour Performance
The Chrome Tour and Chrome Tour X models are designed as 4-piece golf balls positioned clearly in the tour segment. Both feature a Precision Tour Urethane Cover, which offers high control and feel especially in the short game. The Chrome Tour provides a medium feel, combining low spin in long shots with high spin around the green and high workability.
The Chrome Tour X is aimed at players preferring a slightly firmer ball characteristic. Control, consistency, and playability remain central, complemented by a construction designed 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, staying true to its reputation for outstanding tour performance with a particularly soft feel. Callaway continues to use a urethane cover developed for high spin rates in the short game and precise control on approach shots. The Chrome Soft targets players seeking 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 retail for €65 per dozen. With the Chrome Family 2026, Callaway emphasizes its commitment to providing cutting-edge golf ball technology for the highest performance demands—tailored by player type but united by speed, consistency, and precision.
