What’s New: 2020 Callaway Chrome Soft Hits Retail
Well now it seems like I will be picking up some sleeves and having a ball battle soon.
interesting reads from everyone here, cool seeing the overlap of the benefits from both of the balls through different swing speeds. @McLovin was saying the ball was coming off the face hotter around the greens vs Previous version has caught my interest. The feel and response there and not feeling too soft is a huge win for me personally.

Incredible statement.
I do love me some Truvis.... can't wait to have these in hand to test out!
It’ll be CS for me. Love the idea of the extra yardage and performance. Like with many other OEMs offerings, just not in love with the idea of paying $50 for a box of balls..

@JasonFinleyCG
The limited edition Truvis releases have been great (Shamrock, Playing Card Suits, American Flag, etc,) are more of those coming this year?
Will the Yellow/Green Truvis still be available at DICK’S stores this year?

Z-Star might have some competition this year...
I appreciate a response like this. Honesty, owning it, fixing it.

Since you guys are emphasizing that we try both models with all the new changes that are underway with the ball, can you guys sell a box with 2 sleeves of the Chrome soft and 2 sleeves of the Chrome soft X so we don't have to buy a box of the Chrome soft and a box of the Chrome Soft X?
i always thought it was suspicious that @JasonFinleyCG managed to go to The Grandaddy every year.....?
???
Great info here for sure. I’ll be picking up some of the CS to try for sure this year.
Lots of knowledge dropped yesterday. Love the transparency. I need to test both of these out this year.
CS should be similar feeling but feel is very personal. The CSX should have a similar feel to the 2019 TT version but firmer than the 2018 CSX.
Not at this time, just not enough volume to support it at this time
We have some ideas we are excited about. We will only have the White/Green for Sports Matter.
No current plans for that and with all the variants it could get complicated. Many places will be selling sleeves so that is always an option. Our reps will also have two ball packs at demo/fitting events as well.
I hope you aren't in Cali right now haha, otherwise you are up awful early.
In Orlando
So it sounds like the CSX will see gains off driver for faster swing speeds, but will perform similarly around the greens as compared to the 2019 CSX TT?
Also, any tour pros playing the new CS?
Shortly before the Grandaddy began, I was contacted to take part in a secretive ball study on the new 2020 Chrome Soft. Beyond the normal reviews that we were tasked with, I was asked to go above and beyond in order to perform more longer term testing for others who are new to the game, or just high caps, like myself. I wasn't given specific directives from @JasonFinleyCG, but moreso given freedom to carry out the program as I saw fit. Sort of a "pilot" program, per se. It was to be done on both days at the Hideaway, and results would be compiled at a later date. In fact, I may never hear the results, but we'll see....
The program had the code name "SUB". It stood for Submerged, Underbrush, or Buried. I did my best to insure most of my allotment of new balls were placed strategically in various out of bounds locations throughout the course, in hopes that some day down the road, they would be retrieved and studied for long term elemental exposure. The overall experience was enjoyable, as I've never been part of a long-term study like this, but hope that the research based on this study will help Callaway better develop balls that will survive the bottom of the lake, the deep woods, or the thick rough.
In all seriousness, the time I spent playing the new Chrome Soft was good. It's very difficult for me to tell how a specific ball will respond to me over long shots, as I'm not a consistent hitter. I like the feel of it off the driver, as it doesn't feel too hard. Where I really saw the benefits was around the green. When I was able to make a good strike, it responded pretty much exactly like I expected it to. Plenty of stopping power, and spin, when I wanted it.
