Callaway introduces new Rogue fairway wood family for 2022

Published

on

Callaway Golf has today officially announced its new Rogue family of fairway woods: the Rogue ST Max, Rogue ST Max D, and Rogue ST LS.

The 2022 fairway woods feature new Batwing Technology and a completely redesigned A.I. Jailbreak system. The new additions are available to pre-order today and arrive at retail on February 1, 2022, priced at $349.99 each.

Here’s a rundown of all the technology packed into the new fairways for 2022:

  • Jailbreak ST: Two Jailbreak batwings are pushed to the perimeter, providing stiffness while allowing the face to flex in design for high ball speeds
  • Tungsten Speed Cartridge: By incorporating up to 27g of high-density tungsten, the Center of Gravity (CG) is pushed low and forward to provide for lower spin with more ball speed
  • A.I. face: The all-new A.I. face optimization bids to improve speed, launch and spin, with the unique face pattern customized for each model and loft in the fairway lineup
  • High Strength Face Cup: The C300 maraging steel is specially treated through a proprietary process for high strength and flexibility, while the Flash Face Cup is designed to offer greater speed and spin consistency across the face

Rogue ST Max

Per Callaway, the Rogue ST Max is their fastest ever fairway wood and boasts an all-new Tungsten Speed Cartridge, new Jailbreak ST, and an A.I.-designed Flash Face, which are all engineered to provide maximum speed and forgiveness.

The new addition is a mid-launch offering with slight draw bias and features models from a 3W through 11W.

Lofts: 3/15 degrees, 3 HL/15 degrees, 5/18 degrees, HW/20 degrees, 7/21 degrees, 9/24 degrees, 11/27 degrees

Rogue ST Max D

The Rogue ST Max D is Callaway’s first dedicated draw fairway wood and is the highest launching fairway wood in the 2022 lineup.

The fairway wood utilizes a slightly closed face, more upright lie angle and additional weight in the heel to promote a draw, with the club aimed at players that need the most shot shape correction in their fairway wood.

Lofts: 3/16 degrees, 5/19 degrees, 7/22 degrees

Rogue ST LS

Billed as the company’s fastest fairway wood in a compact players shape, the Rogue ST LS model features a deeper face with a compact footprint that is suited for better players.

The 28g Tungsten Speed Cartridge and forward weight screw push the CG forward for low spin, while the shape and face profile make this the company’s most fade-capable fairway wood.

Lofts: 3+/13.5 degrees, 3/15 degrees, 3 HL/16.5, 5/18 degrees

Published

on

We’re proud to once again partner with 2nd Swing Golf to bring you GolfWRX Members Choice 2025! 2nd Swing has more than 150,000 new and pre-swung golf clubs available in six store locations and online. Check them out here

What is the best driver in 2025? At GolfWRX, we take great pride in our online community and the cumulative knowledge and experience of our members. When it comes to the best driver of 2025, we want to know what our forum faithful think.

Since our founding in 2005, the bedrock of GolfWRX.com has been the community of passionate and knowledgeable golfers in our forums, and we put endless trust in the opinions of our GolfWRX members — the most knowledgeable community of golfers on the internet. No other group of golfers in the world tests golf clubs as frequently or as extensively, nor is armed with such in-depth information about the latest technology.

Below are the results of GolfWRX member voting for the 2025 best driver, along with the vote percentage for each club.

Best driver of 2025: The top 5

5. Callaway Elyte Triple Diamond: 6.02%

Callaway’s pitch: “For golfers looking for a fast, forgiving, yet workable driver, the Elyte Triple Diamond features a tour-inspired shape and is the preferred model by most Callaway tour players.”

You can read what other golfers are saying about the driver in the GolfWRX forums, and see our launch piece here. Shop the Callaway Elyte Triple Diamond here.

4. Ping G440 Max: 6.86%

Ping’s pitch: “The most forgiving G440 model, MAX has a hotter face to generate speed and distance, and a lighter overall system weight with a longer shaft (46″) for faster clubhead speed, higher launch and longer carries. The Free Hosel and Carbonfly Wrap crown save weight to create our lowest CG ever and increase forgiveness while contributing to a more muted, pleasing sound.”

3. Ping G440 LST: 9.53%

Ping’s pitch: “LST is an especially good fit for faster swings, offering less spin and more control with a penetrating trajectory. A hotter face, lighter overall system weight and longer shaft (46″) deliver more speed and distance while maintaining tight dispersion.”

@phizzy30: “Not a fan of Ping drivers in general, but 440 LST takes the cake. It’s super forgiving across the face for a low spin head, looks and sounds good and the ability to make it play neutral or slightly fade biased through the hosel settings is very appealing.”

2. Titleist GT3: 16.55%

Titleist’s pitch: “The GT3 Driver offers Titleist’s boldest combination of power and personalization through adjustable performance. Dial in the CG Track to your frequent contact location to make your biggest drives even bigger while taking total control over flight and shaping.”

@mrmikeac: “I’ve been Anti-Titleist for years and years and years (outside of Vokey, of course). With that being said, HOLY BEGEEZUS the GT3 driver is an absolute NUCLEAR MONSTER! This thing blew my G430 10K Max out of the water in every single category. Forgiveness is the biggest thing that stands out of me, the 3 model has always been one of the less forgiving models in the past but this GT3 can take bad shot after bad shot and still end up in the fairway, I think a ton of that has to do with the adjustability, it’s actually effective. Feel and sound is perfect, that solid crack is so addicting to hear and when you hit it out the screws this thing can absolutely bomb it. Titleist, I’m sorry for doubting you. You have converted me.”

1. Titleist GT2: 22.91%

Titleist’s pitch: “Delivering impressive distance from any impact point, the Titleist GT2 Driver extracts maximum performance through a forgiving design. Get the stability and added confidence of a high-MOI driver without sacrificing speed.”

@DTorres: “The Titleist GT2 has proven to be the best driver of the year. Packaged in a classic profile, GT2 perfectly balances performance and forgiveness while consistently being a high performer across all categories.”
