Callaway Women’s Paradym Ai Smoke Max D Fairway Adjustment Guide, Settings & Chart

The Callaway Women’s Paradym Ai Smoke Max D Fairway family mixes adjustable and bonded fairway-wood heads. The 3W and 3HL configuration(s) are adjustable; the other lofts should be treated as bonded unless Callaway marks that exact head adjustable.

Which heads can you adjust?

Use a wrench only on the 3W and 3HL head(s) that actually have the Callaway hosel screw. Do not try to rotate or loosen the bonded heads in the same family.

Hosel settings

-1 1° lower than stated loft
S Stated loft
+1 1° above stated loft
+2 2° above stated loft
N Neutral lie
D More upright/draw lie

Check strike before changing the club

High face Often raises launch and lowers spin. Do not keep raising the tee if flight is already high.
Low face Often lowers launch and adds spin. Raise tee height slightly before changing loft.
Heel Can add fade/slice gear effect. Improve centred contact before adding draw bias.
Toe Can add draw/hook gear effect. Check strike before adding fade bias.

Best first changes

More launch Add loft one step and re-check strike.
Less launch/spin Reduce loft one step before jumping to the minimum setting.
Right miss Use the more upright/draw direction only after centred contact is established.
Left miss Use neutral/flatter bias where the exact hosel provides it.

Bonded-head tuning

On the non-adjustable lofts, tune strike, ball position and shaft fit. If static loft is wrong, choose another factory head rather than forcing the hosel.

Factory specs

Loft specs 3W HL (16.5°), 5W (19°), 7W (22°), 9W (25°)
Lie specs 58.5° (3W HL); 59.0° (5W); 59.5° (7W); 60.0° (9W)

Disclaimer: Hosel systems, adjustable lofts and removable weights can vary by loft, handedness, model year and regional configuration. Before loosening any screw, confirm the exact settings and compatible wrench in official Callaway documentation for your exact club.
