50 AG equipment panelists were given the opportunity to put the new balls to test with launch monitors, and on the course
AmateurGolf.com's equipment panelists are serious about the equipment they play. So when we asked 50 of them to try the new Callaway Chrome Tour and Chrome Tour X balls, we knew we would get some really good feedback. Here's what they reported.
CALLAWAY CHROME TOUR
Summary:
Best Individual Quotes:
"Despite cool weather (55 degrees) the impact felt true and the distance exceeded my expectations."
"Surprisingly, the tour X played a lot like the AVX Titleist, that I usually play. They have good consistent feel around the greens."
"Great feel and great control. The cover held up much better than the ERC Softs I played before."
"Did not go as far as my current golf ball, but in fairness, it was a chilly day. Stopping power was good on full wedge shots."
"Compared h-t-h with my normal ball Titleist left dash. Chrome Tour consistently went further, with nice trajectory and best of all held better on greens."
"I have been a ProV player for as long as I can remember. Have now played three rounds with the new Callaway Chrome Tour & it has all the attributes of a GREAT golf ball … especially wonderful 'feel' with the irons."
"This ball was very predictable, it flew on a slightly lower trajectory than my normal one, which was GREAT I have been trying to get the ball to fly lower."
CALLAWAY CHROME TOUR X
Summary:
Best Individual Quotes:
"Really like the distance, very consistent and nice spin into the green, even backed up a few shots into the green even with an 8 iron."
"Extremely good feel around the green and on the putting surface. Distance control around the green is exceptional. Putting the ball felt extremely nice."
"Overall, this is a great ball. First off, the feel is amazing... Great feel, spin and iron distance control."
"These are the ones for me... The shots really felt different than any ball I've used. Soft, but solid. I loved the feel more than anything."
"I have played three rounds with the Chrome Tour X golf ball. Overall impressions are very good, the ball has great feel on and around the green... very good durability, no scuff marks at all after three rounds."
