Callaway Chrome Soft Golf Ball Review |2024|

2 words. Wilson Boost 🫡🫡

I play the chrome soft & I have no problem holding greens. I have around 100 mph driver swing

Thanks for doing a video on this ball. I have hit the chrome soft for several years now and agree with everything you’ve stated. I have the 2022 and the 2024 balls and actually I prefer the 2022 version slightly better. The 2022 does in fact feel softer and with the 2024 I seem to gain 5 yards per club and 10 yards with the driver. If I had to pick between the 2022 and 2024 I would go with the 2022 version untill there not available anymore.

I used buy these when they were reasonably priced but now I would rather buy a Legato or Vice as they are the top price to performance.

Great review!

New model absolutely sucks for putting

You should do a ERC Soft vs Chrome Soft, from what I remember the numbers are very close together. Instead of spending the extra money on Chrome Soft, just buy the ERC Soft....just a thought.

Spot on review. Very long with short irons. But low spin that does not check like other premium balls.

GOLF BALL ADDICT JUST DROPPED 🙌🙌🙌

i love the cut red and grey, i know you’ve done a review on them but maybe we could get an updated review soon?

Golf Ball Addict Crew!

I would like to try these but I am not going to buy 3 dozen to get 1 dozen free to get the price down. Many other balls just as good but cheaper. I will stick with Inesis 900 or the Jayllah JG3X.

It is over priced even at 42 a dozen you have so many golf that are at a much better price, Wright and ditson, legato which I'm using now.

This my fav channel to drink my coffe 2🙂I have some wierd "fix idea" that im a Callaway ball dude haha.i just like the white/blue/red. So went for Chrome Tour trutrack bc i like the pattern. Tried TP5 pix 1 time because of the pattern, but reminded me 2 much of doritos haha..But anyways, im in 2 my second dozen CT now, and the durability has not been good..I dont know if its my new Raw Jaws wedges that are to "sharky" or what it is, but i get way to many balls to fast in to the "broken ball" pocket of the bag..Playing Srixon Divide atm since i wanted 2 try it, and those are crazy long!

Interesting! I have a dozen chrome soft balls of the last three years I found on courses near me, I play them on occasion. Thanks Nick

Do you think most of us could tell the difference between this and the prior model?

Thanks Nick. It's possible I might see a whisker of improvement with this ball, but I can't justify the price/performance ratio. I refuse to spend that much on golf balls, even with the discount price.

55 a dozen shaking my head it's almost like these companies are trying to be to expensive for the average Joe golfer

So glad you did this video. I had bought a dozen back when they first came out. I hit them and just never could get used to them. I was expecting a softer ball and higher trajectory. I stopped using them and you have confirmed why. The Vice Pro Air for me is the best 3 piece ball!

I love your reviews. I do not use anything Calaway, but I do enjoy seeing how thet perform. Keep it up!

Excellent review. Thanks

I use and was fitted for the chrome soft ball. I use it exclusively and it without a doubt outperforms the vice balls, the cut balls and the legato golf ball as I have tried all of them. I love the distance and the way it holds the greens.

Great review! Price vs performance is bottom line. I wonder if they thickened the cover and that’s where durability comes from. I agree though the previous Chrome Soft was a great ball at a Meh price. Now it’s a good ball at a high price. I started playing to Vice air it’s a good ball at o good price in bulk order. Kind of wondering if I should have leaned towards the Vice Pro now. lol. Maybe next year. Wondering now how the ball “rollback” is going to affect us. Coming soon!

Couple of points here:

You went from 130 to 160 from 9 to 7 iron. Given the 5H numbers, I’d expect the 9I to be around 140.

5H rolled out 10 feet. This is unacceptable for a player of your caliber.

I can tell you that I do not like the Chrome Soft 2024. Feels like a tennis ball coming off of every club except the wedges. Maxfli Tour S and Vice Pro Air are far better options in the same space.

Great review, as always, Nick!

The low spin numbers make me wonder if they've redesigned this ball for slightly faster swingers who might get more spin? Any thoughts on that possibility?

Kind of bummed, since I swing a few mph slower than you and was hoping this would be a good fit for me next year.

You rock, dude!

They made the ball slightly harder for faster swing speeds. It’s basically the “soft” version of the new tour ball. It works out great for me because I thought the OG was just a little too soft. Now I think it’s PERFECT 👍

It’s not a ball intended for swing speeds under 100 mph. That’s why they make cheaper balls. Try the new SuperSoft if you want something cheaper and more comparable to the older model.

I will never pay that much for a golf ball.

This years model with it's lower launch and spin is what's giving you the great distance. However, with a shallower decent angle and less spin, holding greens should be harder. Isn't the whole purpose behind a 3 piece urethane ball to hold greens?

“Addicted” to your channel - very informative! However, I do have an odd question? Do you live in a prison? I notice the barbed wire fence surrounding your chipping/putting green! I am, of course, being flippant but you do seem well protected.

Great review, as always. I agree on the price. Too much for this ball. Should be no more than $44.94 per dozen.

I switched from Titleist AVX and ProV1X to Chrome Soft this year and I'm really happy. I picked up 3 dozen for $54.99 and got one dozen free. Softer than the Titleists and 1000% more durable. Better all-around IMO

As someone who has played all the Callaway Balls, I think I would classify the Chrome Soft as sort of a "Intro to high end tour balls". It does spin a good amount, but not overly crazy where it can get you in trouble like the others. Definitely straight off the tee and more than enough spin to hold most greens. I would say great for 10-20 handicaps with moderate swing speeds. It's a good ball, but like you said for the price point you can basically play any ball on the market. Pretty much agree with your analysis in the video.

Let me know where I can go to see if you have some sleeves for sale of the sugar golf ball… or your recommendation of something as a close second with just a good of value.. thanks

Been playing chrome soft last 6 months and really like them. Based on less than stellar reviews, been considering other options. Tried the chrome tour a couple rounds and was always in the rough and losing more balls than normal. Switched back to chrome soft mid round and game returned to “normal”. Don’t play enough rounds to waste time trying tons of options. More concerned with performance than cost. Looking for a couple suggested next options to try.

I currently play the speedsoft and like it a lot but I feel like my swing is starting to get to the point of seeing the benefits of the more premium like the chrome soft and TP5. Especially around the greens. What are your thoughts on making the change or sticking with the more "softer" budget ball?

Nice review! Is there much difference between 2022 and 2024 models in terms of durability?

These balls crack in half... I have never had this before with the last generation but now in two dozen, I have had five crack in half. Buyer beware 😮

I used to like the Chrome Soft better when it was softer. Looking forward to trying out the Vice Pro Air this week. :)

I just played the Chrome soft pic.’s this week, I couldn’t believe how far the went! Thanks

Academy Sports has the triple track 4 pack for $144.99!
