    Why We Like It

    • The lighter overall weight targets players with moderate swing speeds who are looking for a higher launch and a built-in draw bias.
    • A new internal-weighting structure frees up the lower portion of the face to flex with the same potential ball speed as the center of the face.
    • A tungsten bar is positioned extremely low and forward, pushing the center of gravity even lower and allowing the face to flex more freely.
    • A high-strength steel-alloy face insert wraps around the crown and sole for faster ball speeds.
    • Callaway used AI-driven algorithms to develop a variable-thickness face that optimizes spin, launch and ball speed.
    • The carbon-composite crown saves mass that’s used to lower the center of gravity and provide perimeter weighting.
    • The sole geometry has a stepped design with extensive relief on the back half for improved turf interaction.
    • 16, 19, 22, 25 degrees (fixed hosel)
