Jan 16, 2026

Callaway has today introduced its all-new Quantum irons which arrive in three models: Max, Max OS (super game-improvement) and Max Fast.

The new Quantum irons are underpinned by Callaway’s Modern 360 Undercut cavity that’s designed to deliver fast ball speeds and high launch in a refined game-improvement shaping. This advanced two-piece design provides perimeter weighting and a fully exposed undercut for added flex where golfers need it most.

The Progressive Tri-Sole Design in the Quantum irons also promotes cleaner, more consistent contact across the set, with a re-engineered sole geometry that adapts from long irons to wedges for smooth turf interaction and efficient speed retention.

Callaway Quantum Irons Key Technologies:

Modern 360° Undercut: The Modern 360° Undercut Cavity is designed to deliver faster ball speeds, higher launch, and more forgiveness across the face, thanks to its advanced two-piece design with extreme perimeter weighting and a fully exposed undercut for added flex where golfers need it most.
Progressive Tri-Sole Design: The Progressive Tri-Sole Design is designed to promote cleaner, more consistent contact across the set, with a reengineered sole geometry that adapts from long irons to wedges for smooth turf interaction and efficient speed retention — even on heavy strikes.
Next Generation Ai-Optimized Face Design: The Next Generation AI-Optimized Face bids to deliver faster ball speeds and more consistent launch, spin, and dispersion by shaping the face to match real-world impact patterns and expand the sweet spot.
Urethane Microspheres: Urethane Microspheres enhance sound and feel at impact by absorbing unwanted vibration, in a bid to deliver a softer, forged-like sensation in a high-speed game-improvement head.

Quantum Max Irons

The Quantum Max irons are designed to inspire confidence with powerful speed, consistent carry, and forgiving performance across the face.

The irons feature a clean, modern shape that aims to help golfers hit more solid and consistent strikes with control.

Quantum Max OS Irons

The Quantum Max OS irons are designed to blend confidence with maximum forgiveness, powerful speed, and consistent carry.

The irons feature an oversized shape designed to help golfers hit it more solid across the face.

Quantum Max Fast Irons

The Quantum Max Fast irons are a lightweight, easy-to-launch iron designed to help you get more height, speed, and distance.

This model is designed to be fast and forgiving, while also promoting a high launch for moderate swing speed golfers with its oversized shaping.

Availability

The Callaway Quantum irons are available at retail from February 27th.

Slab city on the Korn Ferry Tour — Lead Tape Report

This week, we have our Tour Photographer, Greg Moore, on the ground at the OccuNet Classic at Tascosa Golf Club in Amarillo, Texas, for the 14th event of the 2026 Korn Ferry Tour season. With that, we see some great things in the Lead Tape Report as we roll into Amarillo.

Joel Thelen

Monday Qualifier, Joel Thelen is in the field this week. He has played on the Korn Ferry Tour for a full season in 2023, and he is back in action this week. A couple of clubs caught my eye this week in his bag.

First off: His trusted Titleist 816 H2 hybrid. This club came out in October of 2015, and it still remains strong in the bag. Also, take a look at this Odyssey White Hot OG 7, putting a capital S in the 7S model. This custom neck has some impressive lean for an arm-lock-style putter. The bottom of the putter is covered in tape for optimal weighting.

Mitchell Meissner

Taking a look at Mitchell Meissner’s bag this week, we have some great lead tape coverage. Top to bottom working from fairway metals, irons, and wedges. We can see on the short irons and wedges that there is tape at the base of the grip, adding a little counterbalance. Along with that, some tape on the short irons and wedges as well. Moving to his putter, he rolls the Odyssey 7 Bird putter. Meissner putts left-handed and strikes the ball right-handed.

In our forums, one user has offered up a prompt for the true sickos, inviting fellow forum members to share every set of irons they’ve ever owned. As to be expected, this is a lengthy forum topic.

@Lamosteve began:

Can you name every set of irons you’ve owned? Here’s mine

Spalding Dots
Spalding Eclipse
Ram Lazer FX
Lynx Parallax
Mizuno EZ Comp
Ben Hogans
Cleveland CG Red
Taylor Made R9s
PING i20
PING iE1
Taylor Made M6

Our members in the forum have been offering up their own collections. Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

macedan: “Started with a hand-me-down Golden Bear set from my brother when I was in high school, never really played more than once a year or got into the game until about summer of 2017. First purchased a set of Cleveland CG4’s (I actually really miss this set sometimes, soft & not terribly large for a GI iron), moved into Nike Vapor Fly’s by the end of the year. Those lasted until spring of 18 when I decided I wanted new, so I traded them in for TM Rbladez. Honestly, although I liked the Rbladez, poor decision on my part, I think this was really about the only time so far that after a week or two I was kicking myself for not staying with what I had. Rbladez stayed with me until late last summer when I switched to P790’s and (knock on wood) I am hoping this will be my longest lasting set.”
JimmyC59: “MacGregor Jack Nicklaus Triple Crown. Palmer The Standard. Still play these.”
