Introducing the Callaway Elyte Family: From Good to Elite

At Callaway, they believe in pushing boundaries, and with the new Elyte family of golf clubs, the are redefining what it means to achieve elite performance. Inspired by the journey of Xander Schauffele, who transformed himself from one of the world’s top players into a multiple Major champion, the Elyte line is a testament to breaking through barriers and reaching new heights.

Callaway’s theme this year, "from good to elite," embodies the philosophy behind Elyte. Just as Xander meticulously examined every aspect of his game to achieve greatness, Callaway revisited every detail of their design process to overcome a challenge that has persisted throughout the history of driver innovation: the trade-off between speed and forgiveness.

For years, golfers have had to choose between fast, aerodynamic head shapes like those in Callaway’s Epic franchise or highly forgiving designs such as Rogue ST Max and Paradym. While both offered excellence in their own right, combining these attributes into one truly elite product remained elusive – until now.

With Elyte, Callaway believe they have shattered the traditional limitations. By rethinking shape, leveraging revolutionary materials, and applying cutting-edge artificial intelligence, they have created a product line that has no weaknesses. Elyte represents the culmination of decades of driver design evolution, pushing the boundaries of performance further than ever before.

Join us as we walk through the new Elyte family of golf clubs and discover how this game-changing line is setting a new standard in golf.

Callaway Elyte Drivers

Callaway was the number one selling driver in the U.S. per Golf Datatech in 2024, and now their new Elyte Drivers are up to eight yards longer with even more forgiveness*. This performance is led by an advanced new shape, developed through new prototype capabilities, that provides enhanced aerodynamics for elite speed throughout the entire golf swing. The improved shape is designed to maximise swing speed with improved forgiveness.

A revolutionary new aerospace grade Thermoforged Carbon crown enables fast head speeds while optimising high launch and low spin. Callaway’s most advanced face to date, the new Ai 10x Face, delivers 10x more control points than Paradym Ai Smoke, and is a breakthrough design that produces exceptionally fast ball speeds, tight dispersion, and optimised launch across the face. Elyte is available in 3 driver models: Standard, X, and Triple Diamond.

Of the three Elyte models available, the X is available with a women's specific shaft, WMS Mitsubishi Chemical Eldio, at a length that is an inch shorter (44.75") than standard with the 10.5 and 12 degree heads. It is highly recommended that you visit a local PGA Professional or fitting centre to make sure you get the right driver set up for your swing.

RRP Standard £569, X £569, and Triple Diamond £599.

Callaway Elyte Irons

Completing the lineup, Elyte Irons promote exceptional ball speeds and forgiveness for every type of player. An optimised Speed Frame construction and new Ai 10x Face deliver incredible ball speed, forgiveness, sound, and feel. The new Speed Frame construction incorporates advanced design elements allowing for additional patented urethane microspheres to deliver exceptional sound and feel. This innovative construction also produces fast ball speeds, giving you the distance and performance needed to elevate your game.

The tri-sole design features three distinct sections to ensure fast, smooth turf interaction. A sharper leading edge and trailing edge chamfer allow for efficient entry and exit, while the mid-section offers enhanced forgiveness for consistent results from a variety of lies. Elyte Irons are available in 3 models: Standard, X, and HL (high launch).

Of the three models, the HL is available with a women's specific shaft, WMS Mitsubishi Chemical Eldio, at a length that is an inch shorter than standard and a C3 WMS swing weight.
