#### Product Description


The Callaway Paradym X Fairway Wood caters to golfers seeking maximum power and easy launch, making it ideal for golfers who struggle with finding the fairway or maximizing distance from the tee box. A key feature is the A.I. Designed Jailbreak Batwing Technology. This innovative structure incorporates artificial intelligence to optimize weight distribution and stiffness within the clubhead. The result is a highly stable clubhead that promotes faster ball speeds across the face for explosive distance, even on off-center hits. Additionally, the Paradym X Fairway Wood has a forged carbon toe patch. This lightweight material redistributes weight towards the heel of the club, promoting a draw bias that can help golfers who slice find more fairways and straighten out their ball flight.

**Perfect club for:** Golfers looking for a forgiving shape with a high launch and a slight draw bias.


#### Key features include:

- **Forged Carbon Toe Patch:** Redistributes weight towards the heel of the club making this fairway easy to turn over. 

- **A.I.-Designed Jailbreak Batwing Technology:** This structure promotes stability in the body at impact, allowing the face to flex and increasing ball speed and distance.

- **A.I. Designed Face:** Optimized face thickness and curvature across the hitting surface, maximizing ball speed, launch characteristics, and spin for consistent performance.

- **Tungsten Speed Cartridge:** Incoporates up to 25g of high-density tungsten, pushing the center of gravity low and forward. This results in the optimal launch and spins with enhanced speed. 

- **High Launch Performance:** Built with an upright lie angle and a neutral face at address. The forgiving shape produces a high launch with a slight draw bias and an adjustable 3W.


#### Top competitors comparison: the [TaylorMade Stealth 2 Fairway Wood](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/golf/clubs/fairway-woods/taylormade/stealth-2-3/l345130) and the [Cobra Aerojet Fairway Wood](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/golf/clubs/fairway-woods/cobra/aerojet-4/l322862)


Similar to the Paradym X, the TaylorMade Stealth 2 Fairway Wood prioritizes distance and forgiveness for a wide range of golfers. However, TaylorMade achieves this through advanced face technology and a Thru-Slot Speed Pocket. Their Inverted Cone Technology creates a larger sweet spot for more consistent distance, while the Thru-Slot Speed Pocket allows for more face flex on lower hits. The Cobra focuses on distance, forgiveness, and high launch with the Aerojet Fairway Wood. They achieve this through weighting strategies and their Baffler Rails technology. Weighting with strategically placed sole weights promotes a lower center of gravity for potentially higher launch and forgiveness. Baffler Rails on the sole help the clubhead glide through various lie conditions, even thick rough.

#### Progression:

The Paradym X Fairway Wood takes the Rogue ST Max's distance potential to the next level.  Here's a breakdown of the progression and key improvements:

**Callaway Rogue ST Max Fairway Wood (2022):**
- Offered a titanium body construction.
- Featured Callaway's A.I. Flash Face Technology, a variable thickness face designed using Artificial Intelligence to optimize ball speeds across the hitting surface for more distance.
- Had a more traditional fairway wood head profile.
- Did not have an adjustable hosel (except for the Rogue ST Max OS model).

**Callaway Paradym X Fairway Wood (2023):** The Paradym X Fairway Wood builds upon the Rogue ST Max's foundation for distance with advancements in forgiveness, performance, and design:
- **Industry-First 360° Carbon Chassis:** This replaces the titanium body with a lightweight carbon fiber construction throughout a larger portion of the clubhead. This weight saving creates a significantly higher Moment of Inertia (MOI) for exceptional forgiveness on off-center hits.
- **Jailbreak A.I. Technology:** This innovation incorporates Artificial Intelligence to design an internal structure that promotes stability in the body at impact. This allows the face to flex more efficiently for increased ball speed and distance potential, even on mishits.
- **Generously Stretched Profile:** The Paradym X Fairway Wood has a larger head profile than the Rogue ST Max. This can inspire confidence at address and offer a bigger sweet spot for more forgiveness on off-center hits.
- **Adjustable Hosel (Model Dependent):** Unlike most Rogue ST Max models, some Paradym X Fairway Woods come equipped with an adjustable hosel. This allows golfers to fine-tune the loft to optimize launch trajectory and ball flight for their swing and course conditions.



#### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

**PROS:** 

- This club is very forgiving. It has given me 10+ yards. My ball flies straight. This is by far the best fairway wood I have ever used.
- Love that I can strengthen or weaken the loft on this fairway wood.
- In both dry and wet conditions, the stock Golf Pride Tour Velvet grips (52g) hold up and provide plenty of grip.
 


**CONS:**
- It is difficult to determine where the mishit occurred. This may not be the best option for someone who needs to make adjustments throughout the round.
- The ability to work the ball is limited. 
- I really thought I would get more loft on my ball. Disappointed.
