Callaway has released the new Chrome Tour Family golf balls: 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, expanding the brand’s portfolio for ambitious golfers who value tour-level performance, consistent ball flight, and precise feel. Pre-sales begin on January 6 at 3 PM, with worldwide 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. Central to this development is the new Tour Fast Mantle, featuring an optimized core and layer system that enhances ball speed and adds distance. The goal is to maintain consistent performance across all clubs. This concept is supported by the Advanced Seamless Tour Aero®, which Callaway claims provides a high, stable ball flight along with exceptional flight and distance consistency on every shot.
Another key element is Precision Technology, representing a comprehensive approach where design, manufacturing, and testing are meticulously aligned. The result is a golf ball that delivers repeatable outcomes 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 feature a Precision Tour Urethane Cover that offers exceptional control and feel, especially around the greens. The Chrome Tour delivers a medium feel, combining low spin on long shots with high spin near the green and excellent workability.
The Chrome Tour X targets players who prefer a slightly firmer ball characteristic. It emphasizes control, consistency, and playability, complemented by a design optimized 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 maintains its reputation for outstanding tour-level performance combined with a notably 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 appeals to players who want a soft touch without sacrificing performance.
Pricing and Launch
Positioned in the premium segment, Callaway’s new Chrome Family will be available worldwide from January 30, 2026, with pre-orders starting January 6. In Germany, the balls will retail for €65 per dozen.
With the Chrome Family 2026, Callaway reinforces its commitment to delivering cutting-edge golf ball technology that meets the highest performance standards—tailored to different player types but united by speed, consistency, and precision.
