Callaway Paradym Metals Review

Drivers

To create a new Paradym for golfers, Callaway reimagined the driver from the ground up. This created a complete shift in performance, with a design that radically breaks the tradeoff between incredible distance and exceptional forgiveness. This new lineup features 3 new drivers: Paradym, Paradym X, and Paradym Triple Diamond.

Notable Technology in the Paradym line:

Industry First 360° Carbon Chassis

The 360° Carbon Chassis promotes unprecedented weight redistribution for maximized distance. The Triaxial Carbon crown and Forged Carbon sole is 45% lighter than a titanium chassis. This massive weight savings is repositioned for higher MOI and increased forgiveness.

New Jailbreak A.I.

Callaway’s new A.I. designed Jailbreak system provides stability in both the horizontal and torsional direction. Now with a 33% lighter weight design, Callaway enhanced stability for fast ball speeds.

New A.I. Designed Face

An all-new A.I. face optimization enhances speed, launch and spin, and now downrange dispersion. This is the world’s most advanced driver face designed by artificial intelligence.

Speed Enhancing Face Cup and Forged Titanium Face

Paradym is the first driver to utilize Callaway’s speed-enhancing face cup technology. Callaway has paired the face cup with a powerful, forged titanium face.

Paradym

The Paradym driver model provides a refined shape with high MOI and adjustable perimeter weighting. Engineered for players of all skill levels, this club promotes high launch and low spin characteristics along with a neutral ball flight. It’s Callaway’s best combination of distance, forgiveness, and adjustability.

Paradym X

The Paradym X Driver is built for a high launch with high MOI, along with a generously stretched profile at address. This model is best suited for golfers seeking extreme forgiveness and a slight draw bias from their driver.

Fairways

To create a true breakthrough in performance, Callaway’s engineers have reimagined how a fairway wood is constructed. For golfers, it’s a total Paradym shift in distance and forgiveness. With This line comes 3 new fairways being the Paradym, the Paradym X, and the Paradym Triple Diamond

Notable Technology for the Paradym line:

Jailbreak with Batwing Technology

The A.I. Designed Jailbreak Batwing structure is pushed to the perimeter to stiffen the body, while allowing the face to flex for high ball speeds.

Patented use of Forged Carbon

The Forged Carbon sole enables unprecedented weight redistribution for maximized distance and high MOI in our longest fairway wood ever.

The Tungsten Speed Cartridge

By incorporating up to 23g of high-density tungsten, Callaway can push the center of gravity (CG) low and forward. The result is optimal launch and spin, with enhanced speed for maximum distance.

New A.I. Designed High-Strength Face Cup

Callaway applied an all new A.I. face optimization to include speed, launch, and spin. The unique face pattern is customized for each model and paired with our high-strength C300 maraging steel face cup. This promotes impressive speed and consistency across the face.

Refined Shaping with Adjustability

With progressive shaping and the most extensive offering, Paradym Fairway Woods will be the go-to model for players who want consistent launch with ease and a neutral ball flight. An adjustable hosel in the 3W and 3HL models gives players additional control to dial in launch.

Paradym Fairway
