Chrome Soft balls

I was looking at the 2026 My Golf Spy ball testing and the Chrome Soft fared pretty well in distance and spin.
Any thoughts on this ball ?

Is it Chrome Soft or Chrome Tour?
For some reason Chrome soft sounded sort of clicky for me.
I’m sure they are a high quality golf ball.

I have been playing the Chrome Tour.
But I was thinking about the Chrome Soft as a winter ball since it's lower compression.

Haven’t played those. But I have been playing the Chrome Tour Triple Diamonds and have definitely enjoyed using them. Hell I’ve been damn near a club longer carry wise with them on irons

Did they bring the Chrome Soft back?
My understanding is that the Chrome Tour is the replacement.
FWIW, Callaway had some major QC concerns a few years back with the Chrome Soft. I use to love that ball but then I saw the issues (like 1/3rd of a box affected) and stopped playing them. The Tour was nice though

I noticed alot of spin off the tee. Thats really the only thing that affects me in my game. Im not good enough to notice it around the green.

I'm going to give them a try.

Have you tried the Ballnamic fitting system from Ping? I tried it last night and got some interesting golf ball choices. The Srixon Z Star XV and the Wilson Staff were the top two matches.

Somebody posted a really good golf ball analysis that I am pretty sure was also from My Golf Spy. The bottom line was unless you have elite club speed you will not benefit from premium ball distance. The summary statement was “money does not buy distance. Money buys spin.”

I tried the Ballnamic tool 3 times.
For me it was realky slanted towards the Maxfli Tour and the BRX .
I didn't care for the BRX at all.
The Maxfli is good, but I like the Chrome Tour better.

Man, I appreciate you calling this out. Not sure what I read a few years back to make me think they did away with the CS. Might have to give them another shot.
One of my all time favorite balls and I was not happy when the QC stuff started coming out.

I can’t justify their price new so I buy them thru lost golf ball
I also enjoy super soft and a softer taylormade I think it’s called distance

Me as well. I like them for $30/dozen, not $55

The Chrome Tour X is the Pro V1X ball comp. I've played both interchangeably. I prefer the CTX just for some greenside spin and maybe just personal preference. The CT Triple Diamond ball is a Left Dash competitor. I think the CT is a Pro V1 competitor and the Chrome Soft would fall more like AVX. The 2026 Ball Test data is very similar between Chrome Soft and AVX, Chrome Tour and Pro V1 and CTX and Pro V1X. Those will correlate well with the compression numbers as well.
I love Cally's new Chrome Tour line. I think they stack up with Titleist just fine and the X actually spins a little better greenside. Got a playing partner that uses the Chrome Soft exclusively and he really likes those as well. I think if you are looking for a lower compression ball, the Chrome Soft line will do you well. Tested well in the mid-speed categories this year.
