Callaway’s NEW driver Paradym (Para-Dime). Callaway’s Biggest Launch of 2023.

CALLAWAY GOLF

HAS STARTED 2023 in a big way, with it’s biggest launch of the year.

Introducing Paradym (Pron. Para-Dime) which comes in different forms. But the line includes Drivers-Fairway Woods-Irons and Hybrids.

But even better news is that fittings for Paradym are expected to begin this month at places like the Mistwood Golf Dome in Bolingbrook. So watch for fitting dates on line.

Paradym the driver. There are three different models. Paradym, Paradym X and Paradym Triple Diamond. Pricing is $600.00.

The following comes from information released by Callaway Golf. But more details and specifications will come out in the days ahead.

PARADYM DRIVERS are a complete shift in performance, with a design that breaks the tradeoff between distance and forgiveness. Top of mind in design is our industry-first 360 Carbon Chassis that eliminates titanium from the body, so we can push weight and stability to the limit. It promotes unprecedented weight redistribution for maximized distance, with a Triaxial Carbon crown and Forged Carbon sole is 44% lighter than a titanium chassis, this weight savings is repositioned for higher MOI and increased forgiveness.

Because the new A.I. designed jailbreak system enhances stability for faster ball speeds, while Callaway’s all-new A.I. face optimization enhances speed, launch and spin, and now downrange dispersion. Paradym is the first driver to utilize Callaway’s industry-leading face cup technology. We’ve paired the face cup with a powerful, forged titanium face. A combination that provides higher energy transfer to the ball than a standard driver face insert.

Callaway’s new Paradym fairway wood.

PARADYM Fairway Woods.

There are three models. Paradym, Paradym X, Paradym Triple Diamond (349.99/each).

This new construction eliminates weight from body and repositions it for unprecedented gains in speed and MOI. The A.I. Designed Jailbreak Batwing Structure is pushed to the perimeter to stiffen the body, while allowing the face to flex for high ball speeds. Plus, every model has been uniquely designed with a specific player in mind to fully maximize their performance.

PARADYM FEATURES progressive shaping, and it’s most robust offering that fits a wide range of player types. While Paradym X will fit players looking for our most forgiving shape with a high launch and a slight-draw bias. Paradym Triple Diamond is for stronger players how want penetrating ball flight with a lower spin.

PARADYM HYBRID 2 Models to pick from.

CALLAWAY has not forgotten about the hybrid players.

Because with Paradym there are two models to pick from.

Paradym and Paradym X ($299 each)

So with Paradym Shift Construction, the Cutwave Sole design improves the club’s performance through the turf, making this our most versatile hybrid we have ever made. Plus now we have adapted our best speed technologies from fairway woods and implemented them into hybrids for maximum distance. So this includes our Tungsten Speed Cartridge, Jailbreak with Batwing Technology and an A. I. Designed 455 Face Cup.

Paradym is for golfers who want a mid-sized, wood-shaped hybrid that’s long with excellent versatility and control. But Paradym X is built for maximum forgiveness and excellent versatility.

The NEW Paradym Irons.

PARADYM IRONS

Come in two models: Paradym and Paradym X. ($200 per club or $1400/standard 7 piece set).

The Paradym Shift Construction gives you the best ball speed and feel. Our industry-leading A.I. face technology is applied to a high-strength Forged 455 face, creating our most powerful forged iron face ever.

Because each face is uniquely optimized for more speed, higher launch, and increased spin consistency. The all-new Hollow Body design features Speed Frame construction for added stiffness to the body and support for the high-strength Forged 455 Face Cup. So this unique construction is the catalyst that stabilizes a thinner face for incrediblly fast ball speeds.

A forged face and patented Urethane Microspheres deliver the ultra-soft feel and premium sound that discerning players demand. Because internal tungsten weights are placed precisely to enhance launch conditions and improve speed on mis-hits.

The Paradym iron is designed for golfers who want a players distance iron with a refined shape and premium forging. Paradym X is for players who are looking for an iron that’s incredibly long, but with premium forged feel.

There will be more details on Paradym in the days ahead. Callawaygolf.com.

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2023.

The new year is off and running quickly.

Srixon Golf is batting lead off with the first new club announcement-some new woods were announced today.

But word is that Callaway Golf might not be far behind. So stay tuned.

But there was great news coming from Pinehurst, that Pinehurst #10 will happen. However it’s not the old land of the Pit Course, that has Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw’s name on it. But other land 4 miles from the main clubhouse that has some sandy dunes and 75+ feet of elevation change to it.

Architect Tom Doak gets the call on this one, and will work at Pinehurst for the first time. I will be visiting Pinehurst on the way down to the PGA Show weather permitting, or on the way back if necessary in early February. I’m hoping to visit the site during my visit to Pinehurst.

KAPALUA and the Plantation Course starts the year on the PGA Tour this week. This is one of the elevated stops on the tour this year. Which means more money for the guys who have won a tournament and are in the field. Favorites this week are Justin Thomas, Tony Finau, and Patrick Cantlay.

IT WAS REALLY GOOD TO SEE the Masters Tournament decide to continue to let the LIV players in it’s 2023 field. So as a result 16 of them are in the field, including 5 past Masters champions. The Masters did not change it’s requirements to play this year, so player that were in are still in the field.

But the best Masters story of this year, is that Scott Stallings invite was mistakenly sent to another Scott Stallings. Who reached out to the real Scott Stallings and said I might have something your looking for. Stallings said he plays golf, but not at the level of the Stallings who plays on tour. So many folks are hoping that Scott Stallings the pro golfer will get some tickets for the Scott Stallings who got the invite by mistake.

LIV GOLF has announced 7 of it’s 14 stops for 2023, but the full official schedule is not yet released. So there are wonders of what’s going-on because the entire schedule was to come out by last November. The Chicago LIV Golf event is two weeks earlier on Labor Day weekend in 2023. LIV Golf events begin next month.

THE MILWAUKEE GOLF SHOW Feb. 17-19 will beat the Chicago Golf Show to the first tee by a week this year. Tickets available at RoyalGolfShows.com The Chicago Show in Rosemont is back this year, Feb. 24-26.

Willow Hill’s massive new golf dome should be ready for golf shortly.

The Gog Blog will return all week. RS
