                       Report of Independent Accountants


To the Participants and Administrator of the
Callaway Golf Company 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan

In our opinion, the financial statements listed in the accompanying index
present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits
of the Callaway Golf Company 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan (the "Plan") at December
31, 1999 and 1998 and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the
years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Plan's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.  We conducted our audits of these
statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the
United States, which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.  The supplemental schedule of assets held
for investment purposes is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and
is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary
information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for
Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974.  This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan's
management.  The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our
opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.

Callaway Golf Company 401(K) Profit Sharing Plan
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 1999 and 1998
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.   Description of Plan

     General

     Callaway Golf Company (the "Company") adopted on December 12, 1991,
     effective January 1, 1991, a voluntary deferred compensation and profit
     sharing plan, the Callaway Golf Company 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan, as
     amended, (the "Plan"), to enable eligible employees to make pre-tax savings
     deferrals and to share in the Company's earnings, thereby providing
     employees with an opportunity to accumulate funds for their retirement.
     Eligible employees who are employed for at least six months and accrue 500
     hours of service, and are age eighteen or older, may participate in the
     Plan.

     The Plan is administered by the Company and Wells Fargo Bank serves as the
     trustee. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement
     Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA").

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
     principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to
     make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of net
     assets available for benefits and disclosure of contingent assets and
     liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount
     of changes in net assets available for benefits during the reporting
     period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     Plan Merger

     On December 31, 1998, the Odyssey Golf 401(k) Plan (the "Odyssey Plan")
     merged with and into the Plan. As a result, $778,000 in net assets were
     transferred to the Plan.

     Contributions

     Participants can elect to defer from 1% to 10% of their compensation,
     subject to the maximum permitted under Federal law. Participants also may
     contribute amounts representing distributions (or "rollovers") from other
     qualified plans.

     During 1999 and 1998, the Company made matching contributions each pay
     period equal to 100% of the deferral rate elected by participants for
     deferral rates up to 6% of annual compensation.

     The Company also may make discretionary profit sharing contributions. For
     the Plan year 1999, the profit sharing contribution authorized by the
     Company and accrued by the Plan was $3,605,000. The entire contribution was
     received by the Plan in February 2000. Plan participants do not accrue
     earnings on contributions until such contributions are received by the
     Plan. There were no discretionary profit sharing contributions for the Plan
     year 1998.

     Participant Accounts

     Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contributions
     and an allocation of: (a) the Company's matching and profit sharing
     contributions; (b) Plan earnings; and (c) forfeitures related to terminated
     participants' nonvested balances. Only participants who are actively
     employed on the last day of the Plan year or have completed more than 500
     hours of service during the year will be allocated forfeitures and profit
     sharing contributions. Allocations of the Company's profit sharing
     contributions and Plan forfeitures are based on each participant's
     compensation in relation to total compensation of all Plan participants.
     Plan forfeitures totaled $273,000 and $223,000 for the years then ended
     December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

     Vesting

     Participants are fully vested in their pre-tax contributions and vest in
     Company matching and profit sharing contributions at a rate of 25% per
     year, becoming fully vested after the completion of four years of
     employment.

Callaway Golf Company 401(K) Profit Sharing Plan
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 1999 and 1998
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     During 1998, the Plan was amended to allow certain participants terminated
     by the Company to receive, upon termination, 100% accelerated vesting in
     the unvested portion of their matching employer contributions account.

     Distributions

     Distributions to participants are payable when a participant retires, or is
     terminated and requests distribution of the vested value of his or her
     account. If the vested value of the participant's account exceeds $5,000,
     the participant is allowed by law to leave benefits on deposit with the
     Plan. The amount left on deposit and the interest earned thereon are not
     forfeitable.

     Investment Options

     Upon enrollment in the Plan, a participant may direct contributions to any
     of the following investment options:

     .    Wells Fargo Money Market Fund - Invests primarily in U.S. Government
          and corporate debt securities with an average maturity of 30 to 45
          days.

     .    Wells Fargo Short-term Intermediate U.S. Government Fund - Invests in
          short to intermediate term debt obligations of the U.S. Treasury,
          government agencies, corporations, and mortgage and asset-backed
          securities. The average maturity of the fund is not to exceed 10
          years. This investment is no longer available to participants for
          future contributions.

     .    Wells Fargo Equity Value Fund - Seeks to provide long-term capital
          appreciation by investing in common stocks which the fund manager
          believes are undervalued.

     .    Wells Fargo S&P 500 Stock Fund - Seeks to provide total returns
          comparable to the returns of the S&P 500 Stock Index by investing in
          the same stocks and in substantially the same percentages as the S&P
          500 Index.

     .    Wells Fargo Managed Investment Fund - Seeks a high level of total
          return consistent with reasonable risk by shifting investments among
          common stocks, bond and money market instruments. This fund became
          available to participants as of October 1, 1999.

     .    T. Rowe Price Science and Technology Fund - Seeks long-term growth of
          capital by investing primarily in companies which are expected to
          benefit from the development, advancement, and use of science and
          technology.

     .    Janus Flexible Income Fund - Invests in various types of income-
          producing securities.

     .    Strong Government Securities Fund - Invests in fixed income securities
          issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government and its agencies or
          instrumentalities and in investment-grade corporate securities.

     .    Templeton Foreign Fund - Invests in stocks and debt obligations of
          companies and governments outside of the United States.

     .    Dreyfus Founders Discovery Fund - Seeks capital appreciation by
          investing primarily in equities of small, rapidly growing U.S.
          companies. This fund became available to participants as of October 1,
          1999.

December 31, 1999 and 1998
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     .    Callaway Common Stock Fund - Invests in the common stock of the
          Company. Included in the Callaway Common Stock Fund are funds held in
          a money market account that will be used to purchase or redeem shares
          of the Company's common stock.

     Plan Administrative Expenses

     Plan administrative expenses are paid by the Company.

2.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

     Basis of Accounting

     The financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.

     Investment Valuation

     Investments are valued at quoted market prices. Participant loans are
     stated at amortized cost which approximates fair value.

     The Plan presents in the statement of changes in net assets available for
     benefits the net appreciation (depreciation) in the fair value of its
     investments which consists of the realized gains or losses and the
     unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on those investments.

     Contributions

     Participant contributions and Company matching contributions are recorded
     in the period during which the Company makes payroll deductions from the
     participants' earnings. Company profit sharing contributions are recorded
     by the Plan when and if approved by the Company's Board of Directors.

     Distributions to Participants

     Distributions to participants are recorded when paid.

3.   Participant Loans

     Participants may borrow up to 50% of their vested account balance in loan
     amounts ranging from a minimum of $1,000 to a maximum of $50,000. Such
     loans must be repaid within 5 years or, if used to purchase a principal
     residence, 15 years. The loans are secured by the balances in the
     participants' accounts, and bear interest equal to the current prime rate
     at the inception of the loan. The prime rate was 8.50% at December 31, 1999
     and 7.75% at December 31, 1998.

4.   Plan Termination

     Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the
     right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to
     terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. If the Plan is
     terminated, participants will become fully vested in their accounts.
     However, the Plan assets will first be used to pay any expenses of the
     Plan.

5.   Income Taxes

     The Internal Revenue Service has determined, and informed the Company by a
     letter dated May 23, 1995, that the Plan and related trust are designed in
     accordance with the applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code. The
     Plan has been amended since such determination, however, the Plan's
     administrator believes that the Plan is designed and is currently being

     operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal
     Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been reported
     in the accompanying financial statements.


6.   Reconciliation to Form 5500

     Net assets available for benefits per the accrual basis financial
     statements and the cash basis Form 5500 differ by $3,605,000 and $44,000 at
     December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. These differences are due to the
     following accrual adjustments reflected in the financial statements:
