  • The details

Callaway has been a leading light in the field of fairway woods for a number of years now. They have been the most used brand on the PGA Tour a number of times of the last several years.

  • RELATED: Most Forgiving Fairway Woods
  • RELATED: Best Hybrids for Seniors

The performance pillars that Callaway focus on in claiming that top spot are consistent launch, impact location and perfect gapping. This is the same for the new Quantum offerings.

Callaway made a conscious decision to include the same technologies in both the fairway woods and the hybrids for effective performance gains in both.

Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all solution, Callaway has created a clearly structured range that covers everything from maximum forgiveness and lightweight speed to tour-inspired control and workability.

Here’s a look at what makes them tick…

Callaway Quantum Fairway Wood or Hybrids: The Technology

Both the fairway woods and hybrid models use a number of key technologies to enhance the launch, ball speed and consistency of each club.

First of all, they all utilise what Callaway calls their Speed Wave 2.0 technology. For the fairway woods this means they have positioned up to 40 grams of tungsten low and forward in the club head.

This weight placement helps to increase the ball speed while promoting a consistent playable launch. Effectively, this is an updated Speed Wave design from previous generations and helps to increase face flex.

Energy transfer is improved because of this. The brand believe this is particularly evident on strikes from lower off the club face.

Elsewhere, Callaway has included its next generation AI-optimised face in all of their metal woods. Its inclusion has been done to help deliver consistent performance across the entire face.

AI modelling has been used to fine tune different sections of the club face to optimise speed, spin, launch and consistency. Golfers can then access more predictable distances and ball flights.

Additionally, Callaway has introduced a new sole design. Its inclusion is thought to help reduce turf interaction and allows the golf club to move through the ground more efficiently.

in practice, a reshaped heel section improves stability through impact and helps the face return to square more consistently. This is said to benefit both distance control and directional accuracy from a variety of lies.

About the author

Max Mcvittie

A bit of a late bloomer to the game of golf, Max fell in love with the sport when he attended Saturday coaching sessions down at his local golf club after being inspired by friends and family members.

Max has remained a member of Eden Golf Club in Carlisle for a number of years now as he looks to get his handicap down into single figures. Most of his golfing career has been spent battling a permanent slice off the tee, which has led to some ugly rounds.

Having studied at the University of Sunderland, Max is starting out his dream career in sports journalism. During his time at university, he picked up valuable work experience at Reach PLC, BBC Radio Cumbria and GiveMeSport, whilst also getting work published in the Teesside Live. He also spent time working at a local weekly newspaper, Eskdale and Liddesdale Advertiser, as a general news reporter partially covering some local sport just north of the border in Langholm.

Max has just started his journey with the NCG working as the assistant equipment editor. He looks forwarded to reviewing the latest golf equipment, taking up an interest in reviews when buying his first golf club, a Cleveland RTX wedge.

With his bag not going under too many changes throughout the last few years, Max carries an M3 driver, Titleist GT3 Fairway Wood, M2 hybrid, a set of M2 irons, Callaway Jaws wedges and a TaylorMade Spider putter. And yes, Max is a bit of a self-proclaimed TaylorMade fan boy.
