Callaway Announces New Quantum Mini Spinner Fairway Woods

Landing soft is usually a wedge's job.  Usually.  But today Callaway Golf has announced their Quantum Mini Spinner, a new top-of-the-bag solution designed for golfers who need more spin, control, and confidence when attacking greens from distance.  These new offerings will be available at retail starting on August 14th.

Engineered with a compact, deep profile and optimized for higher spin, the Quantum Mini Spinner lineup delivers the stopping power and precision players often struggle to achieve with traditional fairway woods or hybrids.  Built to bridge the gap between woods and irons, it gives golfers the control they need to take aim and hold the green.  The Mini Spinner has recently been released in Japan, where it’s already the #1 selling fairway wood model in the market.

Designed around PXG’s growing Zero Torque (ZT) platform, the PXG One & Done ZT Putter combines a new onset hosel configuration, hollow-body construction, advanced face milling, and perimeter weighting to create a putter that naturally resists twisting throughout the stroke.

As the zero torque category continues to gain momentum across the industry, PXG’s latest addition is designed to broaden the appeal of the technology with a highly stable, confidence-inspiring mallet putter that fits a wide range of players. It also further expands PXG’s ZT Putter family, which includes multiple head shapes from traditional blade profiles to high moment of inertia (MOI) mallets and long putter options.
