New Costco golf balll

[john8888]

In the US now at 29.99 for 2 dozen

Off brand pro v1?

Coming to Canada soon

[justsomeguy]

Probably a Callaway. The dimple pattern looks like a hexagon, and they've sold Callaways for years now.

The person who gave it to me today at Kanata lakes was a buyer for Costco. He said they were handing them out at Greyhawk to at the Costco company tournament this week. He stated that it was manufactured by Titleist.

[justsomeguy]

Interesting. At that price I would definitely give them a try.

At that price, perhaps more like NXT or Velocity than ProV1.

Found one today while playing the Marshes..Very nice ball..feels more like a Titleist NXT S. not as soft as a Pro V... Great ball..can't wait to see them at the local Costco, especially at that price.

Here is a different view on the source of the new ball

I have the NXT ball and the pro v in my bag and the dimples on the Kirkland ball match the pro v1x pattern more then the NXT

It's in the Sept 2016 Conforming balls list:

Kirkland Signature with Signature in red
£ Tour Performance ¢
colour: white
construction: 4P-SC-3c

didn't see Nassau as a manufacturer of any other known brand ball (titleist: acushnet, callaway: callaway, etc)

Thank you. You are a great detective

The golf balls, which do appear on the USGA conforming golf ball list, are made by Nassau Golf Co. Ltd. of South Korea. The four-piece ball is intended, we think, to compare with Titleist Pro V1s. It has 360 dimples and is a medium-to-high spin ball around the greens, according to the USGA's conforming ball list.

Now we just have to figure out who Nassau is??

specs are listed in the thread above from testing and it has similar characteristics to a ProV1 - how that translates to the course I am not sure. Happy reading!

Nice marketing strategy by Kirkland..

As the saying goes: "Often imitated; never duplicated."

[justsomeguy]

As the saying goes: "Often imitated; never duplicated."

If the ProV1 price is not duplicated then I'm OK with that.

[jeffc]

As the saying goes: "Often imitated; never duplicated."

For most the prov1 is overkill. At 15-20$ a dozen, I'll take these any day over $50 a dozen.

For those interested...maybe coming to Canada in the spring?

Costco had their yearly tournament in Sept at Emerald Links. Next day my buddy and I found about 10 of them on the course. We did not know what they were. I played one on the back nine just to see how they were. Well i was realy surprised. The ball was at least 15 yards longer of fairway woods and driver with nice feel. About the same length of irons. I usualy play Pro V1. Definately buy some at Cosco in US when i go down this winter to Florida. Very good ball.

I have been reading all about this new ball on golfwrx.com. I even called a Costco in Bellingham, Washington about them and they did not have them. Not all Costco's in the US have them. I hope they do come to Costco in Canada.
I would have to order online from Costco.com or drive to a Costco that is South East of Seattle, Washington.

Bought 2 dozen, got them yesterday, online and a friend picked them up. I will try them on the weekend.

I would love to pick up an extra 15 yards. But did they spin enough to offer the stopping power that the ProV's provide around the green?

here are some spin #'s

Interesting. Thanks for posting the chart. Performance overall is very competitive with the others.

It appears to me the ball rolls out a little more than the others on average (2 yards difference between total carry and distance)...

They definitely look to be worth a try when they become available.

[jeffc]

the latest comparison vs ProV1.
