People are always dying to know more about what’s coming next in the world of Costco Golf and it looks there might finally be some news. I was hoping for more information to leak out before posting something, but it looks like we’re in another period of “wait and see” with the new irons. But, folks, there’s some big news. There’s going to be a Costco Kirkland Signature driver! Yes, A DRIVER!
Shout out reddit user u/Henderson56 who posted in r/golf what looks like pricing and release dates for the new products. Many have been expecting a new set of irons from Costco since earlier this year, but the big news has been the leak of the new driver. As new photos surfaced, all of my inboxes blew up from fellow golf nerd friends. Admittedly, I’m not a big “Costco Golf” guy which I sincerely apologize for. I know how much that kills so many people that stop by this site. That said, I’d be 150% lying if I told you I wasn’t really excited by this news. I personally can’t wait to get my hands on these new clubs and see what they’re all about.
The Newest Costco Golf Gear
I won’t speak for anyone else, but I’m very curious to see how this driver will sneak by Titleist when it comes to market. Let’s just assume Costco’s legal team is already on top of things and isn’t too worried about it. The key is that players will now be able to almost put together a full bag of Kirkland clubs as the putter, wedges, balls (still need to review/test the latest version), and gloves are already out there. All we’re waiting on now are fairway woods and hybrids, which one has to image aren’t too far behind at this rate. I also hope we see a Costco/Kirkland branded bag at some point and that it’s absolutely amazing. Just a giant Kirkland billboard that matches the KS1 putter’s headcover. That reminds me…I can’t wait to see the headcover for the driver!
The other thing I can’t tell from these pictures, but I’ve seen recently is that the irons may be different than what we saw on the USGA Conforming list earlier this year. A picture I saw a few weeks ago showed different branding and a sleeker profile. Of course, those could have been a different iron altogether! Also, I assume the golf ball is the same latest 3-piece ball, but with a yellow cover. I’ll make sure to pick up a box and test them for everyone!
Costco Kirkland Signature Driver, Irons, & 3-Piece Ball Release Details
The prices leaked are somewhat interesting to me. After the Kirkland 3-piece signature ball went up to $34.99 per box of two dozen balls, it looks like the new yellow 3-piece is going to be $27.99. I can only assume that will be for two dozen balls as that’s how Costco balls have been sold since the beginning. The driver appears to be coming in at $199.99 and the irons will be released at $499.99. Remember, the wedges are sold in a set of three consisting of gap, sand, and lob. That leads me to believe that $499.99 price is likely for a 4-PW set of clubs.
If the gear is actually good, those are pretty solid price points compared to most of the market. Obviously components will play a major role, especially in the driver. If the shaft is terrible, that’ll be pretty tough to overcome for a golf nerd. I can already envision myself getting flamed in the comments of the future review by people saying “yeah, but it’s only $200 and a great entry club!” We’ll certainly find out.
The above pictures states an estimated release date for November 1st. How true that date will hold is anyone’s guess, but fingers crossed. Stay tuned and we’ll of course keep everyone posted as we learn more.
I am very interested in your new products.
However, if they don’t,t make them for lefthanded golfers?? Then how long would I have to wait?
Regards
We aren’t Costco…but I think that’s always a fair point. As a lower cost option, I think they consider the most efficient return on investment.
Agree. Very little love for lefties. The putter finally came out left handed. It’s very good. Let’s see everything else. More lefties than you know
Totally agree
No love for lefties
I got the putter and it’s great
Had to wait for gloves too. Hopefully irons and drivers next.
I saw on you tube the driver and performance. Looked good.sounded good.and went far and straight
Are they selling golf bags?
They do sell golf bags, but they aren’t “Kirkland” branded.
Any updates? I haven’t been able to find them. I have my buddy that works at Costco and he’s on the lookout. If you know any more info, I can send it to him to check their system.
I’ve been keeping my eyes peeled too, and nothin’!
When will the weight sets be back in the stores?
No idea. Have to hit up Costco for that info!
Has Costco discontinued the Kirkland 3-Wedge Set. I have been asking my local Costco store about them for over a year and today I was told it is a “discontinued” item . What is the true story.
I don’t actually know, but they seem to come and go from the website fairly regularly. I know there have been multiple versions.
