The family of Elyte drivers introduced in Jan. by Callaway featured several improvements including reshaping of the heads for less aerodynamic drag on the downswing, a new Ai-designed variable thickness face and an improved carbon fiber crown, all of which were carried on to the three latest members of the family.
The Elyte Mini capitalizes on the interest shown by pros and better amateurs for a shorter length driver with a smaller head that will serve as a “fairway-finder” plus the new Mini has a rear weight that can be adjusted to help produce a neutral, draw or fade tendency for the ball.
Designed for tour professionals, the Elyte Triple Diamond MAX is a combination of the Elyte Triple Diamond and Elyte standard drivers but with more forgiveness than the original Triple Diamond.
Having a slightly more compact head shape than the Elyte Triple Diamond, the Elyte Triple Diamond Tour Draw also has weighting towards the heel to facilitate right to left ball for pros wanting a stronger draw bias.
