Pros & cons
- Lightest iron in Elyte lineup — ultra-lightweight 40g graphite shafts help slow swings generate speed
- 5-10yd more carry than traditional GI irons at 70mph swing speed
- Ai10x Face — 10x more control points + tuned for 65-70mph swing speeds + 25-30° 7-iron launch
- Speed Frame + 20% more urethane than Ai Smoke for buttery forged-like feel + 2025 Golf Digest Hot List recognition + 5/5 Callaway store rating
- Best for beginners, seniors, or high handicappers (20-36 HCP) — narrow super-GI fit, NOT for mid/low handicap players
- Oversized head built to add swing speed and launch shots high — resists workability
- Distance is relative to slow-swing baseline — players with 90mph+ swing speeds see no benefit (use standard Elyte)
- Lightweight design + oversized profile less visually refined than standard Elyte for non-target buyers
