More Than Just Bertha: Callaway’s High-End Golf Balls

callawayblog.jpg

Callaway Golf burst on to the equipment scene more than 25 years ago with the game changing Big Bertha line of drivers, fairway metals and eventually irons. Alongside a few other key competitors, these products pushed the industry away from persimmon woods and toward the modern era of equipment defined by titanium and composites materials.

While its influence on the world of club design is undeniable, the company has also been making some excellent golf balls for the past decade and a half. For this blog post, we want to focus on the Tour caliber balls that rival other industry titans like the ProV1 for a spot in the bags of high-level amateurs and professionals.

One of the most recognizable and unique features in Callaway’s balls first showed up in 2002, distinct hexagonal dimples. This design helps reduce drag, making them travel further and straighter through the air, according to experts at Callaway. It has been a staple in the company’s most popular models, including those we’re examining further here.

The newest Tour level ball is the Chrome Soft, which features 4-piece construction and Dual SoftFast Core technology to provide higher ball speeds and optimal spin rates to maximize performance through the bag.  The Dual SoftFast Core is engineered for fast ball speeds with low spin for players needing spin reduction to optimize their launch conditions off the tee. Another version of the ball, called Truvis, features a red and white pattern and is specifically designed to maximize the player’s view of the golf ball for better focus and visibility.

For those looking for another great option, but at even better savings, check out last year’s Speed Regime 3, which was used by the winner of the 2016 Masters Tournament. The “SR3” provides optimized aerodynamic performance for more distance at Tour-level swing speeds. A soft urethane cover delivers maximum control and an incredibly soft feel. Designed for low handicap players, the aerodynamic performance works best with driver speeds of 105mph and above. If you don’t quite hit that mark, check out the SR2 and SR1 options for great performance at lower swing speeds.

The quality of Callaway Golf Balls is second to none and at LostGolfBalls.com we give you the option to buy a variety of quantities, so you can test a dozen against your current gamer or buy in bulk buckets and save big.

Genesis Invitational Gives Us The Reality Of Sports

I’ve written this before and I’m repeating it because it never ceases to amaze me how televised sports is the ultimate reality show, the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat, as the now-defunct ABC Wild Word of Sports used as its intro. On the final hole of the Pebble Beach Open, Jacob Bridgeman (TaylorMade TP5x) was hitting a shot off of pebbles on the beach on the 18th hole. His ball ended up in the ocean and resulted in a bogey, tying him for eighth place when he was close enough starting the hole for a much better finish. I thought his spirits were crushed and dismissed him for the Genesis Invitational. So what does he do? Goes on a tear and headed into the final day, chasing a tournament record score. But he nearly frittered away the win, coming undone on the back half of the back nine and eking out a single stroke victory, and only because he parred a four-foot putt that must have seemed much longer because of the pressure. That’s drama, real drama, not manufactured reality. He won the event for the first time in his 66th tournament on the PGA Tour and only 65 days after marrying.

It's Time To Talk About Tiger Woods Again

Some thoughts on the world of golf with the Masters less than eight weeks away: When Tiger Woods (Bridgestone Tour B XS) speaks, we all listen. As the host of the Genesis Invitational this week, Woods held his annual address about his health, career, playing in the Masters and the PGA Tour at large. Woods is gradually returning to swinging his clubs from his latest back surgery last fall, which naturally had reporters asking him about his playing status. He did not specify when he will return to playing again, yet he tersely and emphatically did not rule out playing in the Masters. “No,” he said. Woods has always tried to play in the Masters, no matter his physical condition.

Chris Gotterup Making A Name For Himself

Who is Chris Gotterup (Bridgestone Tour B X), and why is he tearing it up early in the 2026 PGA Tour season? If you had asked golf fans heading into this year’s season, some may have known him and success he has had, but I don’t think there would be many who would say he was slated for a breakthrough season. But now the word is out: Not only is he a long-ball hitter off the tee and someone who can keep it in the fairway, but he also has a complete game and championship mettle. With two victories in only three tournaments in 2026, most recently last weekend beating two-time winner Hideki Matsuyama (Srixon Z-Star XV) in a playoff in the WM Phoenix Open, Gotterup is on a heater. Matsuyama, the tournament leader heading into the final round, was spraying his ball all over the course and was scrambling most of the day. Gotterup was quietly doing his own thing. In fact, while Scottie Scheffler (Titleist Pro V1) was making a serious run for the lead that just fell one shot short after a seven-under par, Gotterup was putting together a similar round. He had the tournament lead after round one with an eight-under par – Scheffler was just hoping to make the cut after opening two-under par – but shot one-under par in his next two rounds. Gotterup really turned it on in the final round. He was two-under after the front nine, but five-under on the back nine, including birdying five of the last six holes.
