Callaway has launched 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 with the official introduction of the Chrome Tour Family 2026. Including the Chrome Tour, Chrome Tour X, and Chrome Soft models, the manufacturer expands its portfolio specifically for ambitious golfers seeking tour-level performance, consistent ball flights, and precise feel. The pre-sale starts on January 6 at 3 PM, with the balls becoming globally available from January 30, 2026.
Focus on Speed and Consistency
At the heart of the new Chrome Tour Family is Callaway’s highlighted Speed Technology. The core development is the new Tour Fast Mantle, featuring an optimized core and layer system that boosts ball speed and adds extra distance. The goal is to ensure consistent performance across all clubs. This concept is supported by the Advanced Seamless Tour Aero®, which, according to Callaway, delivers high, stable ball flight along with exceptional flight and distance consistency on every shot.
Another central component is the Precision Technology, representing a holistic development approach where design, manufacturing, and testing are precisely coordinated. The result is a golf ball that provides reproducible outcomes and maximum reliability for players in their game.
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 feature a Precision Tour Urethane Cover, providing excellent control and feel, especially in short games. The Chrome Tour offers 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 firmer ball feel, emphasizing control, consistency, and playability enhanced by a construction aimed at 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 maintains its well-known promise to combine outstanding tour performance with a particularly soft feel. Callaway also uses a urethane cover that provides high spin rates in the short game and precise control on approach shots. The Chrome Soft is aimed at players who want a soft feel without sacrificing performance.
