The QUANTUM fairway wood series boasts a high level of perfection achieved through a wide range of advancements, including ball speed, controllability, and smooth turf interaction.
The "QUANTUM" fairway wood was developed with the theme of optimizing launch angle and impact point. The Speed Wave structure, which was adopted in the previous "ELYTE" model and is positioned floating inside the sole, has been further evolved. By positioning the screw-fastening point of the new Speed Wave 2.0 shape at the rear of the head, the amount of flex is increased even when impacting the lower part of the face, minimizing the loss of ball speed. This achieves a high launch angle and stable distance performance. In addition, the latest adjustable hosel "OptiFit 4" is adopted, which has a wide variety of loft and lie angle combinations, allowing golfers to adjust the trajectory to suit their individual needs. Furthermore, a step sole design that is even easier to get through the turf has been introduced. The level of perfection has been increased in every aspect.
■The Speedwave has evolved to its second generation. In the "QUANTUM" fairway wood series, the Speedwave, which has been incorporated into the head since the previous ELYTE series, has now evolved into Speedwave 2.0. Without changing the total weight of the weight, the width in the toe-heel direction has been narrowed and extended to the rear, so that the screw fixing position is moved further back. In addition, the front end has been advanced to the very edge of the back of the face, and the height from the inside of the sole has been designed to be as low as possible. As a result, it has become possible to extend the length of the hinge part (the L-shaped bent part) at the bottom of the face cup, which increases the amount of flex even when the ball is hit at the bottom of the face, and minimizes the loss of ball speed. This results in a high launch and stable distance performance. Furthermore, the shallow center of gravity design makes it easier to control the head at impact.
■ Equipped with OptiFit 4 hosel, which offers a wide range of loft and lie angle settings. A major change from the previous model in the "QUANTUM" fairway wood series is also in the hosel. From this model onwards, it is equipped with an adjustable hosel called OptiFit 4, which was first adopted in the ELYTE utility clubs. Compared to conventional adjustable hosels, it offers a wider range of loft and lie angle settings, making it easier for each golfer to achieve their preferred ball flight, and also allowing for more appropriate adjustment of the distance gap between clubs.
■The step sole design has been changed to a triangular shape. The step sole design, which first appeared in the ELYTE fairway wood series, has been refined. In the previous model, the central part of the step was trapezoidal, but this time it has been changed to a triangular shape. While maintaining the stability of the head at address, the sole's ability to glide through the ground has been further improved.
■ Callaway's AI design expertise continues to be incorporated. The face incorporates Callaway's long-standing AI design (model- and club-specific design). The AI designs the clubs by inputting real swing data and ball flight data from many golfers. As the face flexes more easily at impact, the control points created by the AI design are further enhanced, and the ball flight correction effect is more pronounced than ever before. It optimizes launch angle and spin rate for each point of impact, achieving a stable ball speed. It helps to send the ball to a narrower landing area further away.
■ The "QUANTUM MAX Fairway Wood" is positioned as the standard model in the [QUANTUM MAX Fairway Wood] series. The head has a round form that is characteristic of Callaway, and the shape is inherited from the previous ELYTE fairway wood. There are seven types of clubs available: W#3, W#3HL, W#5, W#7, Heaven, W#9, and W#11, and the OptiFit 4 hosel is used on W#3, W#3HL, and W#5. The crown is made of carbon material from W#3 to Heaven, and stainless steel from there onwards.
■【QUANTUM MAX D Fairway Wood】The "QUANTUM MAX D Fairway Wood" is a model that makes it easy to hit a high-trajectory draw. The head is slightly longer in length from front to back and has a draw bias characteristic, and it has the largest volume in the series, with a slightly deeper face. There are four types of clubs available: W#3, W#3HL, W#5, and W#7, and the OptiFit 4 hosel is used in the W#3, W#3HL, and W#5. The W#3, W3HL, and W#5 have carbon crowns, while the W#7 has a stainless steel crown.
■【QUANTUM MAX FAST Fairway Wood】The "QUANTUM MAX FAST Fairway Wood" is the lightest model in the series, making it easy to hit a high-trajectory draw. The head is longer in length from front to back and has a draw bias. Compared to the ELYTE MAX FAST Fairway Wood, the face is even shallower, and the lower part of the toe and heel has a slightly boxy shape, increasing the volume. The face appears wider at address, giving a sense of confidence that the ball will be easy to pick up. There are four types of clubs available: W#3, W#5, W#7, and W#9, and for the first time in the MAX FAST models, OptiFit 4 is used in the W#3 and W#5. The W#3, W#5, and W#7 have carbon crowns, while the W#9 has a stainless steel crown. A distinctive feature is the loft setting, with the W#3 adopting a 16.0 degree loft that prioritizes ease of getting the ball airborne.
