Golf ball ranks (longer, brilliant, softer, etc.) are useful, but they do not always tell you the whole story. Sometimes you need a deep immersion in a single model to understand what you really do. That’s what we’ve done here with Callaway ERC soft. USER MygolfSspy’s ball test 2025 Presented by UNRLWe destroyed how it performed with the driver, handcuffs and wedges to give you the knowledge you need to decide if it belongs to your bag.
What is Callaway Erc?
Erc soft It is positioned by Callaway as its longest -feeling golf ball, aiming at a wide range of players who want distance without losing too much control.
It contains:
- Soft elastic and elastic hyper core – designed for the fastest speed of the ball from the driver while improving the feeling.
- Hybrid cover + rolling urethyan coating -A multi-material construction for durability, gentle feeling and improved short game rotation compared to standard Jomaler models.
- Cloak – Improves energy transfer for the extra ball speed and wedge rotation.
- Triple -lining – Popular Callaway by setting help to improve accuracy in the greens.
With $ 39.99 a dozen, it sits below the Chrome tournament line, traded as a Full of performance Distance mixing, gentle feeling and movable control of Greenside. Probation data show where those claims are kept.
Driver’s performance
With the driver, Erc soft showed a clear identity with low rotation, the middle to the high. It was not the only longest tasting ball, but at all swing speeds, he remained competitive with the steady top 10 ends.
- High swinging speed: At 321 yard, ERC Soft ended only seven meters after the trial leader (328). The rate of its 2,390 rpm rotation was among the lowest in the field, producing a flight that stood in the game. A slightly higher angle of starting helped not to fall out of the air, but the overall distance tracked the models much longer.
- Middle swing speed: With a total of 286 yards, ERC Soft landed in the top 10 and only three yards behind the leader (289). The spin was again very low which kept the drives straight and efficient. The departure landed in the middle of the middle to the high, giving it sustainable carrier and a reliable trajectory for this swinging speed.
- Low swing speed: At 221 yard, ERC Soft was only out of the first 10, three timid leader yard (224). The spin was in the middle middle, not as oppressed as at higher speeds, and its highest releasing angle gave the slower extra -dependent swingers.
Iron and wedge performance
With cuffs and wedge, the ERC software moved tightly to a high -release, low rotation profile. All over the swing speeds, it was among the balls easier to get air, but was constantly ranked after all for rotation, especially in approaching and shots with short games.
- High speed cuffs: Erc Soft posted a Top-10 finish in the distance, supported by one of the highest group departure angles (third in general). The rotation was low, about five drops from the bottom. As the shooting flew up, they offered less prohibition power than competitors.
- Medium -speed cuffs: For medium-speed players, the ERC Soft again produced the Top-10 distance. Its rotation rate was the lowest of any tested ball, even under Callaway’s superstition. The departure angle was the second higher in the test, making it easy to hit the big iron shooting even though the more once released approaches they landed.
- Low -speed cuffs: ERC Soft stood out as the highest ball for slow swingers and the third longer in general, less than half of a yard after Vice Pro Plus at the top. Spin measured at 4,292 RPM, much below 5,531 RPM leader, which means highly carried shots, but offered limited control in greens.
- Wedge: In the full wedges, the ERC Soft rotated to 9,259 RPM, placing it near the end of the test (against the 10,147-RPM leaders). At all 35-Oborre shots, it generated 5.189 RPM, again a little of the 6,026-RPM winner. Both results highlight the boundaries of its dressing system compared to the premium urethyan covers.
Strengths and weaknesses
Ballo ball comes with trade. Here’s where Callaway Erc ERC Excels and where players may want to look elsewhere.
Strengths
High launch and excellent keeping along the swing speed Top-10 performer in the distance with both driver and cuffs Feeling very gentle and forgiving the profile of rotation from tee The triple track lining is a bonus to set
The weaknesses / actions of trade
Among the lower rotations for cuff and wedge → limited prohibition power Greenside spin urethane patterns with a wide margin Low driver rotation can flatten flight to high -speed players PriceMiming sits on some competitors of DTC JUMONER
Who should play it
Callaway ERC soft It is best suited for players that:
- Want higher and more carried out release, especially with the speed of the middle-up to the lower
- Evaluate the sensation soft with rigid driver and iron distance
- Prefer a narrow, low -rotated ball with joined help
Golfists who prioritize the Greenside Rotation and Stop Power must bend toward urethan patterns as Chrome tournament, Chrome OR Tixist Pro v1.
Table
| Swinging speed | Driver’s performance | Iron/wedge performance | end |
|---|---|---|---|
| High | 321 yds, low rotation (2390), slightly higher release | High distance-10, low rotation, high release | Tall and movable but lacks the prohibition power |
| Middle | 286 yds (Top 10), very low rotation, high medium release | Lower iron rotation, second higher boot | Pardon the carried ball, trades rotate for distance |
| Low | 221 yds, lower middle rotation, high release | Third Longest, Lower Departure, Higher Start | Ideal for height/carrier but the Greenside Rotation is missing |
Final thoughts
Callaway ERC soft MIX High boot and strong distance one with milder sensation. Especillyte especially suitable for players at moderate or slower swinging speed, who need help to raise the ball in the air. Trade is predictable: low rotation in greens and below wedge average control. If you can live with those restrictions, ERC Soft offers reliable medium terrain.
