For the first time in their golf irons, Callaway used their artificial intelligence technology to create a ground-breaking level of performance. The Callaway MAVRIK irons are the first irons to feature Flash Face technology. With their unique computer-created design, the face of each iron is different to provide the specific performance golfers need with each loft. Combine that innovation with their signature Face Cup they use on their irons and these golf clubs give you long, consistent distance.
These irons are more than just distance. Callaway uses their urethane microspheres to enhance the feel of the clubs without slowing down the face. Every iron also features a custom tungsten weight placed specifically to optimize launch and trajectory specific to each loft. There are three models available: MAVRIK, MAVRIK Max, and MAVRIK Pro, designed to provide a set of MAVRIK golf irons to every type of golfer. See them in action in our exclusive video reviews.
Callaway Mavrik Irons Review
The Callaway MAVRIK irons are the standard-bearer for the irons lineup. They feature a forgiving cavity back shape and fit the majority of golfers. MAVRIK is your standard performance package. Flash Face Technology with Face Cup, the Tungsten Energy Core, and urethane microspheres combine to make these irons fast, far, and forgiving.
Who It’s For
Callaway MAVRIK irons are a great fit for the golfer who wants to maximize distance and forgiveness. These are game improvement golf clubs so players who need more help in those categories will benefit most from this set of irons.
Performance
The Callaway MAVRIK irons are incredibly hot. Our product expert saw an increase of around 4 mph in ball speed when compared to his current 6 iron. That produced a distance increase of around 10 yards with a 6 iron when swung at around 90 mph. We saw a medium to lower trajectory with a peak height of around 70 feet and some extra roll out to add distance.

Callaway Mavrik Max Irons Review
The Callaway MAVRIK Max irons are the first special performance package that Callaway includes in the MAVRIK lineup. Their Max irons are made for even more game-improving performance. The Max performance package features a larger, confidence-inspiring shape, wider sole, and lower center of gravity all designed to be more forgiving, launch higher, and carry the ball longer.
Who It’s For
The Callaway MAVRIK Max irons are ideal for golfers who are looking for maximum forgiveness and distance with higher ball flight. With a larger shape, these are an oversized game improvement club designed to give the most distance and forgiveness while making it easier to launch the ball in the air. For players who tend to miss to the right, the Max irons do feature significant amounts of offset.
Performance
Callaway MAVRIK Max irons are built for distance and our testing showed just that. Our product tester saw an increase of around 5 yards in distance with the 8 iron over his current club. Ball speed was only slightly higher but the lower spin rate and higher launch angle produced solid elevation and descent angle to gain distance and hold greens. All in all, we saw about a half-club extra distance with MAVRIK Max.

Callaway Mavrik Pro Irons Review
Callaway MAVRIK Pro irons are the players’ version of the MAVRIK irons. The Pro performance package is built around all the things that better golfers prefer in their golf irons. The club head is more compact, the topline is thinner, and there is less offset in each club. All the things skilled golfers like are packed into the MAVRIK Pro irons along with Callaway’s signature technologies like Flash Face Technology with Face Cup, the Tungsten Energy Core, and urethane microspheres.
Who It’s For
Callaway MAVRIK Pro irons are the MAVRIK set for the more skilled golfer. With a more compact head, thinner topline, and less offset, they have a player-preferred design that better golfers love. The more workable look of the MAVRIK Pro irons will appeal to skilled players.

Appearance
Callaway MAVRIK irons are a little bit larger game improvement clubs and you will notice that right away. It is oversized, down by the ball it does have a little bit thicker topline and the overall size of the club is larger. That does inherently make these irons more forgiving. They do have a clean look as expected from Callaway and do inspire confidence with the size at address.
Feel & Sound
The MAVRIK irons had a soft feel for a game improvement iron. Sometimes, oversized irons sacrifice some feel for the extra distance and forgiveness but the MAVRIK irons do not compromise on feel. The sound was not muted or too “twangy” as our product expert described it. It’s a pleasant feeling and sounding option for this year.
Callaway Mavrik Hybrids
Callaway’s MAVRIK hybrid golf clubs are made to be pure distance machines. There are three models to choose from, just like the irons: MAVRIK, MAVRIK Max, and MAVRIK Pro. Each model shares the same core Callaway technologies. Every hybrid has a specific, fully-optimized Flash Face design to bring every golf club up to the legal limit of ball speed. That means you hit the ball faster and farther, every time. To protect that ball speed, Callaway included their Jailbreak Technology and Face Cup design just like in their metalwoods. It’s all done in the name of fast speed and long distance where you need it. Watch the three models in action and see how they stack up against last year’s Epic Flash in our exclusive video reviews.
Callaway Mavrik Hybrid Review
The Callaway MAVRIK hybrid fits right into the bag of most golfers. It features a more round face and a more rounded profile like a fairway wood. For golfers who want a hybrid that lets them hit it farther, straighter, and more consistent, this is the golf club they need in their long game.
Who It’s For
The Callaway MAVRIK hybrid is a club for the masses. This golf club will fit into the bag of most golfers of all ability levels. It features technology that can help almost all golfers hit the ball faster and farther.
Performance
We compared the Callaway MAVRIK hybrid to the Epic Flash model from last season. Ball speed was impressive With the MAVRIK hybrid, our product expert was able to swing the 4 hybrid at around 95 mph, producing a ball speed of 134 mph which lead to a carry distance of 207 yards with roll out to 226 total yards. That adds up to about a half a club longer than other hybrid models. The MAVRIK hybrid also produced a medium trajectory with a peak height around 95 feet and a landing angle of 42 degrees which is steep enough to hold a green.

Callaway Mavrik Max Hybrid Review
Just like the irons, the Callaway MAVRIK Max hybrid features a special performance package designed to enhance the playability of these golf clubs for game improvement golfers. The biggest difference in the Max hybrids from the standard MAVRIK is the head shape. MAVRIK Max hybrids are larger with more progressive head shapes from loft to loft. They are made to launch easier and be more forgiving where game improvement golfers need it in the long game.
Who It’s For
The Callaway MAVRIK Max hybrid is a game improvement golf club. For golfers who need more forgiveness and a little help hitting the ball higher, this is the hybrid for them. It features a larger footprint that inspires confidence for the game improvement golfer.
Performance
With the Callaway MAVRIK Max hybrid, our product expert was getting 207 yards of carry with roll out to a total of 225 yards. We saw ball speeds around 133 mph and club head speed of 94 mph. The 3 hybrid produced a high ball flight for our test with a peak of 106 feet so the player who doesn’t hit the ball quite as high will get some help in that area. We also saw a landing angle of 44 degrees so it will hold the green.

Callaway Mavrik Pro Hybrid Review
Callaway MAVRIK Pro hybrids are the perfect companion for the Pro irons package. They feature a player-preferred fairway wood shape. The sole of the Pro hybrids is made with an enhanced camber designed for crisp turf interaction and a more controllable ball flight. For the more skilled golfer who wants to be able to work the ball and shape their shot in the long game, the Callaway MAVRIK Pro hybrid is the model of choice.
Who It’s For
The Callaway MAVRIK Pro hybrid is designed for the better golfer. It features a lower trajectory and workable ball fight making it a great option for the player who wants more control over their long game shots.
Performance
When testing the Callaway MAVRIK Pro hybrid, this golf club produced the lowest, most piercing ball flight over the MAVRIK line. With a 12-degree launch angle, we saw a peak height of 72 feet as well as a more shallow 35-degree landing angle. Our product expert swung the Pro model at 92 mph, producing a ball speed of 135 mph, and a carry distance of 207 yards. With roll out, he hit the MAVRIK Pro a total of 234 yards.

Appearance
The Callaway MAVRIK hybrids feature a consistent look with previous Callaway models. They are easy to align to the ball and control the face with a consistent look. One difference is the use of the burnt orange accent color where in the past we have seen shades of green and blue. The overall silhouette of the hybrids is consistent with what we have seen from the Callaway brand.
Feel & Sound
Consistent is also the best way to describe the sound and feel of the Callaway MAVRIK hybrids. Any golfer who has hit a Callaway hybrid golf club over the last few years will be familiar with the way the MAVRIK models sound and feel. With a trusted golf club name like Callaway, you can count on getting consistently good feel and sound when you swing one of these clubs.
