Callaway has released the new Chrome Tour Family golf balls, featuring the Chrome Tour, Chrome Tour X, and Chrome Soft models.
On Tuesday, Callaway unveiled the new 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, expanding the brand’s portfolio targeted at ambitious golfers who seek tour-level performance, consistent ball flight, and precise feel. The pre-sale begins on January 6 at 3 PM, with global retail availability starting January 30, 2026.
Focus on Speed and Consistency
At the core of the new Chrome Tour Family is Callaway’s highlighted Speed Technology. The key innovation is the new Tour Fast Mantle, featuring an optimized core and layer system designed to increase ball speed and add 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, ensures a high, stable ball flight and exceptional flight and distance consistency on every shot.
Another critical component is Precision Technology, representing a holistic development approach where design, manufacturing, and testing are precisely coordinated. The result is a golf ball that delivers reproducible outcomes and maximum reliability for players.
Chrome Tour and Chrome Tour X: Tour-Performance in Detail
The Chrome Tour and Chrome Tour X models are designed as 4-piece golf balls and clearly positioned in the tour segment. Both feature a Precision Tour Urethane Cover, offering high control and feel, especially around the greens. 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 firmer ball character. It emphasizes control, consistency, and playability, complemented by a construction geared for maximum performance within the Chrome Family.
Chrome Soft: Soft Feel with Tour-Level Performance
The Chrome Soft completes the new family as a 3-piece golf ball. It remains true to its reputation for outstanding tour performance paired with a notably soft feel. Callaway also uses a urethane cover here, designed for high spin rates in short game shots and precise control on approach shots. The Chrome Soft is intended for players who want a soft feel without sacrificing performance.
Pricing and Market Launch
Callaway positions the new Chrome Family in the premium segment. The balls will be available for around €65 per dozen in Germany.
With the Chrome Family 2026, Callaway underscores its commitment to delivering state-of-the-art golf ball technology for the highest performance demands—tailored to player types but united by speed, consistency, and precision.
