CALLAWAY PARADYM
FACT FINDER: Callaway’s latest range, PARADYM, is the brand’s take on how to reimagine golf club design from the ground up. What they hoped to achieve is a complete shift in performance, with designs that radically break the trade-off between distance and exceptional forgiveness. In the golf driver models, an industry-first 360° Carbon Chassis has been employed, removing all titanium from the body by combining a Triaxial Carbon Crown with Callaway’s proprietary Forged Carbon Sole. This helps to make the body a whopping 44% lighter than an all-titanium one. Beyond the Carbon Chassis other game-changing technologies such as a new A.I. Designed Jailbreak system and 455 Face Cup help to make this one of the most highly anticipated releases in recent years.
WHO IT’S FOR: With adjustability available in many of the models, and the option to custom fit any of the PARADYM golf clubs, this is truly a range for every level of player.

“I recently purchased a Callaway PARADYM X HL Fairway 3 Wood on the recommendation given by GolfOnline, and I must say, it has proven to be a very wise choice. The innovative design of the PARADYM X HL Fairway 3 Wood makes it incredibly easy to swing smoothly through to impact and very forgiving. What has really impressed me about this club is its versatility, whether hitting off the tee or from the fairway, this club is equally effective on long par 5s and shorter par 3s, making it a great all-around option for any skill level of golfer,” – Gary, May 2023

The Stealth 2 Driver uses more carbon than any other driver in TM history, with weight being repositioned for better forgiveness and stability.

“I bought this club to replace my old (cheap) 3 wood. I chose TaylorMade as it is the same as my driver, and I was able to choose the same shaft as my driver. Sometimes I find it takes a few rounds to get used to a new club, but I was pleased with it from the very first time I used it. I've only used it from the tee so far, but I am getting better distance from the tee than my old club. It's been a good buy!”–Ian, March 2023
PING G430
FACT FINDER: The new PING G430 series of golf drivers, fairways, hybrids offer golfers of every level of ability the speed, distance and forgiveness they crave. Featuring the latest PING technology, the new Carbonfly wrap is a lightweight composite crown that wraps into the heel and toe of the skirt, saving weight and lowering CG for more ball speed and higher MOI.

“I traded up from a TSi driver to a TSR and there isn’t really a very significant change. However, the TSR just feels more stable and is the best driver I have ever owned. I ordered this custom fit with a top of the range shaft and have been amazed at the difference this makes. Additionally, I must give credit on the lead time - I was told to expect a Nov delivery and received my new driver mid-September. Well done Titleist and GolfOnline” – Paul, September 2022
