2023 Callaway PARADYM Driver Launch

[DukeStKing]

Anyone know the MOI of the standard version with the sliding back weight? I saw a video where some Englishman said it was 9K. Can anyone confirm?

Pretty much impossible.  I believe the max MOi for a driver is 5900. 
 

9000 sound like a mallet putter MOI

What is the highest MOI driver and where would the Paradym rank?

I shared my fitting experience for the Paradym driver in my 2023 Driver Theead If anyone is interested

Typically the PING G drivers like 425 or 430 rank near the max of 5900.  
 

I haven’t seen any numbers on the Paradym.  But my guess, pure guess would be somewhere in the middle like low 5000’s along with TSR2

The maximum total MOI(horizontal + vertical) is 10,000. The Ping G425 has just under 10,000 MOI. The Paradym Core has a total MOI of 9000. Most use the horizontal MOI which the maximum is 5900. The Ping G425 has a horizontal MOI of 5600. Some other horizontal MOI of other drivers are: Callaway Rogue ST Max 5300, Tour Edge Exotics E722 5500, Titleist TSi2 5300, Cobra LTDx 5200. Callaway has not revealed the horizontal MOI of the Paradym. Titleist stated that the MOI of the TSR2 is lower than the TSi2 at around 4900.

Great post and info! 

Thanks for the clarification.  Clearly I am one who is only aware of the horizontal MOI

Some other driver horizontal MOI #'s that I've found: Mizuno ST-Z/ST-X220 5000, Tour Edge Exotics C722 4900(wt. back)/4400(wt. front), Cobra LTDx LS 4200, Ping G425 LST 5000, Callaway Epic Max 5200. So given that the last 2 Callaway max drivers were 5200/5300, I'm guessing that the new Paradym core is around 5300-5400.

As someone who hasn't hit driver since 2021 due to acute lack of talent issues, I played 18 today and hit driver on all the "driver" holes with only one "bad" hole (OB that was a great, straight drive with an aiming error).  I followed up my OB with a bomb* down the middle.  

The "regular" Paradym driver is a very forgiving beast.  It was fun playing driver again instead of 3HL or 5w off the tee.

 

 

(*I'm old, a bomb is 275)

I recently upgraded to the paradym from the rouge st max ls, distance seems to be the same on strikes out of the center of the club but on miss hits the paradym definitely provides a lot more distance, all in all I’m very pleased with its performance
