ERC Soft
A three-piece hybrid-cover ball with GRIP urethane coating (a thin soft layer over the cover for spin) and AI-designed high-modulus mantle (a stiff inner layer for energy transfer) that delivers high launch, low driver spin, and surprising greenside control at a mid-tier price point.
Who It’s For
The Callaway ERC Soft is built for slower swing speeds (under ~95 mph). It suits golfers who prioritize moderate swing speed, mid handicap, great value, seniors.
Feel
With a compression around 60 and a ionomer cover, feel is noticeably soft off the face — think marshmallow at impact.
Spin Profile
Expect low driver spin for more carry and roll and workmanlike short-game spin — not tour-grade, but dependable.
Trajectory & Construction
Trajectory is high with a 3-piece construction. The softer core performs well in cooler temperatures.
