In this video, I will review the new Callaway Paradym A.I. Smoke drivers, which claim to be the fastest and most advanced drivers in Callaway history. Callaway have used artificial intelligence to design the new driver face, called the AI Smart Face, which creates a series of sweet spots all over the face for more distance and forgiveness. The AI Smoke driver also comes in four different head options, each with a different shape, weight and performance.

I will also give you my honest opinion on the looks and feel of the AI Smoke driver, which features a black carbon crown and a smoke effect on the sole. I will tell you how much it costs and who might benefit from playing this driver. And finally, I will answer the big question: is the AI Smoke driver as good as Callaway say it is? Is it worth buying or upgrading to this driver?

You don't want to miss this video if you are interested in the Callaway AI Smoke driver. Watch it now and learn everything you need to know about this new driver from Callaway Golf.

What a game changing review!!!! Thank you so much. I went with the Max Fast since I have a slower swing speed. Mine arrives tomorrow. Bought a mint condition for 220.00 cannot wait

@JT-xs4br says:

I bought a year old triple diamond at a good price and have to say that it is amazing! I actually flipped the heavy weigh to the back and the spin and forgiveness are really good!

@WilliamMeagher-i9w says:

Well done Mark!

@darrenchittock804 says:

these club tests are completely irrelevant. If the driver isn't being tested by an average golfer then the results mean nothing. A golf Pro could pick up literally any driver and get good results.

@jameshirschy7150 says:

Talks like he has chew in his mouth

@jm-um4st says:

i have had the triple diamond 8 degree for 2 yrs and it is NOT for avg ball strikers. Although I hit around 70% fairwayd depending on the course, at times I still have trouble getting a high launch.
I just ordered the smoke max 9 degree and I'm hoping to hit more fairways and bombs.

@TabascoPepperShoots says:

Mark at the end did you not test the Max D? I ask as I have just purchased the Ladies version.

@TravelEatGolf says:

I am using a 2014 Callaway Big Bertha driver. I saw your old review on this and you were hitting about 265. With this new, Callaway AI driver you are hitting 310-320. Does this mean there is that much of a difference in balls and driver in 2024? And/or are you swinging faster and better? This would be interesting to hear your take on this. Thank you!

@hammer1901 says:

Playing an Ai Smoke Max. It might be due to upgrading from a 915 which was nearly 10 years old but the difference between the two clubs is very obvious. The smoke is a much better driver.

@danielkemp4187 says:

Tsr3 or Ai smoke max?

@bobberry8094 says:

I picked this up yesterday. After just 15 range balls the shaft came loose from the head. Callaway did not include a wrench so my disappointment is up as are my expectations once I tighten it up. If this is a r.epeating occurance, back it goes

@AbadaWeeeeeeee says:

Forgiving but relatively short compared to the others and awful aesthetics

@FarbmeisterGeneral says:

What does the ai stand for here 😂

@HProductions71 says:

I live the smoke look, everyone has different opinions

@Station2Station-du2gh says:

Callaway didn't use AI. They just used simulations of impact physics which has been around for decades. No supercomputers, just workstations with high end GPU's. No machine learning. No aliens involved here, people. Just marketing.

@Herndez1 says:

Seems like Mark was more enthusiastic about testing this club compared to the Qi10.

@kentbrown3736 says:

Mark I will never buy one of these stupidly expensive drivers. I play off scratch. I paid $10 AUD for my used PGF V8 beta titanium 450cc driver on a regular flex cheap arse graphite shaft 14yrs ago. It hit draws, fades, straights, high ones and low ones because I practice and takes lessons. It drives 250m (273yrds) on the full all day long. Sometimes 270m (295yrds) on the full. No one makes fun of me for owning it either. Many of the members at my club including the young blokes love to have a turn and they laugh when it hits just as far and sounds just as good as their very expensive models. I guess I need others to keep buying the expensive stuff so I can get a bargain whenever I feel like it.

@RobertFlynn-i4h says:

Hi from Australia, I did see these drivers today at my pro shop, the only good thing that I could say about them was.
They sat beautifully, for God sake we know they have a carbon crown, but I don't like looking at gloss carbon crown.
To look down at them, it's too busy.
Its not classy.
I've always gamed Callaway drivers, but this one won't get in my bag

@bobbys4327 says:

I wonder how durability will be. Will it crack at the titanium carbon fiber seam like my Epic Flash did?

@matthewfarrelly4839 says:

Great review Mark! I'd love to see the comparison testing between previous Callaway drivers, I wouldn't expect much difference between the Paradym from last year but I wonder how much difference there is to my driver Callaway Epic Sub Zero which is only 4 years old
