Callaway’s most well-known golf ball has a high reputation amongst both Amateur and Major Winners alike. It has been so popular since its inception there is now a whole family of Chrome Soft golf ball options available.
So how do you know which one you should be putting in play? We’ve put each model head to head to find out.
Which Callaway Chrome Soft should you use?
When it comes to looks Callaway keeps the design and logo of each model very similar. We have two side stamp options, the simple arrow look or a bolder triple track offering.
The Triple Track design has been used to great effect by Phil Mickelson. In fact he is rumoured to have helped Callaway design the alignment aid.
I think the triple track technology is great for any level of golfer. Whether you are just starting golf, or an elite-level player looking for some distinct markings that help whilst putting. It also saves you having to spend lots of time drawing your own lines onto your golf balls!
If you are after something really different you can also opt for the more vibrant Truvis options. These are available in a Pentagon or Shamrock pattern and help with visibility and focus. Perfect for those late rounds after work or for visual players who want to be able to see the spin on the ball.
The Chrome Soft is noticeably the softest feeling of the three golf balls due to its Hyper-Elastic SoftFast Core. Personally, I felt it was softest on long shots, especially fairway woods into greens.
Initially, the Chrome Soft X and X LS felt very similar. Then I hit my driver. I could instantly feel that the LS had a harder feel on impact to the X and the original Chrome Soft.
When comparing the three models for distance I hit multiple 7-irons on Trackman and compared the data. As expected The Chrome Soft X flew the furthest followed by the Chrome Soft X LS and finally the original Chrome Soft.
