Callaway’s latest release, the Elyte series, aims to push driver and fairway wood performance forward with new materials, aerodynamic shaping and AI-driven design. The goal is more speed, better launch conditions and greater consistency. Do these clubs live up to their name? We’re looking for four golfers in the U.S. to test and review the Elyte driver and fairway wood to find out.

Key features

Elyte Driver

Aerodynamic head shape: Callaway has reworked airflow dynamics to reduce drag and increase clubhead speed, particularly near the hosel and rear.Thermoforged carbon crown: Lighter materials allow for a lower center of gravity, aiming to reduce spin and increase ball speed.10X AI Face Technology: Uses thousands of control points to optimize ball speed and dispersion across the face.

Elyte Fairway Wood

Tungsten Speed Wave: A 35-gram weight positioned forward to enhance ball speed, particularly on low-face strikes.Step Sole Design: Reduces turf interaction by minimizing sole contact, allowing for more consistent contact.10X AI Face: Engineered to provide improved performance across a larger portion of the clubface.

What you’ll be testing

Selected testers will receive both the Elyte driver and fairway wood. Over a six-week period, testers will evaluate these clubs on looks, performance, forgiveness and overall playability. You’ll provide feedback on their strengths and weaknesses, interacting with the MyGolfSpy community throughout the process. How do these clubs compare to your current setup? Does the AI-driven design actually improve consistency? We want to hear it all.

Dale Whitnell made two holes-in-one in the same round at the South African Open, having entered the day worrying about just making the cut at the European tour event.

We’ve started planning for the 2025 robot ball test and part of the plan this year is to include more of the cheap stuff.

Let me define cheap. I’m talking about the two- and occasionally 3-piece stuff with ionmer covers. While these balls get zero tour play, they’re loved by a segment of golfers for their lower price points, often soft (dare I say, super soft feel), and the variety of colors and patterns in which some models are offered.

It should go without saying that we can’t test everything, but we want to make sure we include some of the most popular models. To that end, we did some research to figure out what those balls are.

Our requisite fine print is that not every place that sells golf balls sold reports sales data. With that, sales data for direct-to-consumer brands can be spotty, but the list does give us a good idea of what the best-selling models (by unit share) were for 2024.

Let’s look at top 5.

While we may all dream of playing in the Masters, attending the Masters tournament is usually the closest we can get.

With the pricing of a Masters trip being what it is, let’s just say attending might feel like a bit of a pipe dream, too. We took a deep dive into the costs involved—from tickets to lodging to pimento cheese sandwiches—and you might be surprised by the total price.

Here’s a closer look at how much it really costs to go to the Masters in 2025.

Getting to Augusta

Augusta National Golf Club is located in eastern Georgia, about 145 miles east of Atlanta, 165 miles southwest of Charlotte and 75 miles west of Columbia, South Carolina. It’s not an area that sees much tourism outside of Masters week.

While Augusta Regional Airport (AGS) is conveniently located, the pricing for flights to this smaller airport is not cheap. A Delta flight from New York to Augusta that gets in on Wednesday and leaves on Monday will cost a little more than $1,000 for a round trip.
