At the Grandaddy each year, 12 lucky THPers experience something special, but it comes with a job of reviewing their equipment to the masses through the THP Forum once it is released. This year, there are only 4 THPers for the Grandmama, but they will be doing the job of 12, so we are looking for members who are truly committed to the whole process before, during and after the event. The person that loves to talk about this game, the equipment and share their honest assessment of everything they learn through content and reviews.

The Contest
The Callaway golf ball lineup has been getting rave reviews so far and we want to hear from you. Would you choose the Chrome Soft or the Chrome Soft X, and why?
How to Enter
Give us 50 words or less on your golf ball of choice from their lineup. If you have played them, consider this a mini review. If you haven’t yet, that is okay, tell us why you think it is the right ball for your game.
Good luck everybody. This contest will remain open for about a week.
Loved the 2019 CSX TT and the 2020 CSX TT appears to have improved upon an already excellent ball. After a few rounds the 2020 CSX TT is long of the tee with short game control. Bonus for having the best alignment aid in golf with Triple Track!
I love the low spin off the driver but high control off the irons and wedges. I can see why so many of the tour pros love this ball.
I like the Chrome Soft. The ball is easily compressible for low spin off the driver while maintaining a higher spin than a two piece around the greens. Honestly, my favorite part about the ball is the visual options from a gazillion Truvis, Tripple Track, or plain white/yellow. Style+Preformance=Chrome Soft.
Driver: Long and Straight
Fairways: Piercing Flight
Irons: Can you say fantastic distance control?
Wedges: One hop stop or suck it back with a hard swing, your choice!
Putter: Feels great but I still 3 putt!
Which ball am I?
Chrome Soft X for me!
My golf ball of choice is the ChromeSoft (Truvis). I enjoy it because of the soft feel off the driver and the control around the greens. I particularly enjoy the Truvis pattern. It really shows the spin around greens and out of the bunker, which is great feedback for me.
I’d chose the Chrome Soft over the Chrome Soft X. While the X is a great ball, the softer feel of the Chrome Soft matches what I’m looking for in a ball. Soft feel, spin robustness ? and tons of speed. Great all-around performer with no compromises.
Longer and both more consistent and durable than ever before, the Chrome Soft not only changes everything, it redefines what the modern golf ball should be. Both balls perform well, but the Chrome Soft performs more consistently for my amateur swing where I’m not trying to control spin as much.
I chose the 2020 CS ball for yesterday’s round and was pleasantly surprised. As a ProV1 user, I honestly felt like I was giving up nothing with the ball change. The firm feel with longer clubs and soft feel with scoring clubs and putter equaled the Titleist. Nice work Callaway!
I’ve recently switched from the CSX to the Chrome Soft having found that I tend to get a little less side spin with the longer clubs. I can still get spin around the greens, which makes it a solid switch. Still feels great off the putter face, too.
My ball of choice is the 2020 CSX Triple Track. It’s hard to pick against the more forgiving experience of the regular CS but I need as much spin as I can get to stop my approach and pitch shots that can often come from less than ideal locations.
I’ve been playing the 2018 CS Truvis and have loved the feel, but on a whim, bought the 2020 CSX and there is no comparison. The feel is just as sweet and buttery, especially off the drive, and I have not hit another ball longer with my current driver.
I was hoping for more spin on greenside shots and have not been disappointed. The competitors X balls spin around the greens but feel very hard on longer distance shots.
This is just one of those balls whose combination of feel and performance brings a smile to my face every time I hit it.
I don’t have extreme swing speed and can’t rely on pull the string spin but I still deserve controllable flight, consistent distance and great feel… give me box of Callaway Chrome Soft and I’m set for the course.
Winner announced Friday.
