They're ridiculously inexpensive and My Golf Spy's recent testing was off the charts.
Just a moment...
With Villagers' passion for saving money & a new Costco coming to town, I thought I'd spread the word.
BTW, these balls are "hard". Higher compression than a Pro V1. They will feel hard when you hit them. That said, in almost every case, a "harder" ball will go further. Don't buy into the "seniors need soft golf balls" BS. |
I've played the Kirkland balls for three generations of the ball including the latest, I'm on my first dozen of the new ball and find it similar to the last generation, I found the ball prior to that had very high spin with my irons and was terrible in the wind. I'll play a Pro v or TP from time to time and I do like them better but I just can't justify the cost, I don't think they help my score that much if at all. I play blue tees and probably swing my driver around 92-95 mph and according to my Garmin watch I only hit about 50% of the fairways and a better ball doesn't seem to help with this. I'll stick with the Kirklands.
