Callaway Reinvents the Tour Ball -- Again
"We've reinvented Tour ball performance again with our new Chrome Soft and Chrome Soft X," said Dr. Alan Hocknell, Callaway SVP of R&D.

The new generation of Chrome Soft and Chrome Soft X are prime example of the rewards Callaway is reaping from its continued commitment to improving its world-class golf ball manufacturing plant in Chicopee, MA. Callaway has invested upwards of US$50 million over the past several years to revitalize the facility by incorporating modern machinery and materials to provide best-in-class innovation and performance in every golf ball category.
