I’m willing to bet there are two main areas that make this so much lower in price. 1 is Costco’s insane infrastructure. They’re able to mass produce and ship clubs far more efficiently than anyone else. They don’t need a huge profit margin on golf clubs. Number 2 is Kirkland/Costco isn’t paying out insane sponsorship money/marketing. When you’re buying a big name brand, I wouldn’t be surprised if at least 30% of the club cost is tied to marketing and player sponsorships.

IMO you shouldn't compare it to the latest model drivers, because it is so much cheaper it should be compared to similarly priced used drivers. Go to Golf Bidder again and find something around $200, maybe a Titleist TSI 1 or 2, or a Ping G425. The benefit of the used is you can get a shaft that might fit you better, but its older tech so it's a tradeoff.

I play the Kirkland Signature balls, gloves and wedges. They ALL perform beautifully for an average golfer and the value is incredible. I even caught the wedges on sale for $120 for the set of 3. To my eye they look just like Vokey's and the combination of those wedges and balls give me more spin than I've ever had coming into greens. I've actually spun a few wedges off the green which was previously unheard of in my golf game.

This is like the perfect driver for beginners. Sub 200 bucks and until you get super consistent with the ball striking, it will give you all the performance you NEED to learn how to hit fairway finders and most amateurs can't carry the ball 280 yds anyway. I know my 2018 Callaway Rogue (not the ST) I get about 240 carry 265-270 total distance. I probably would be just fine using this driver instead... CostCo is NOT screwing around with this golf equipment. REALLY GLAD they're building a CostCo near me because as soon as the irons are available again (TaylorMade just sued them btw, that's why no one can find them right now) I'm sticking those in my bag to replace my 2017 M2's...

I have stopped making clubs but for decades, I was building clubs and fitting people, repairing clubs, replacing shafts, grips even re-grooving irons. I do think the profit margin on clubs are out of sight these days. If you can find something reasonable in price, works well, you like it, by all means, use it. Most people make two big mistakes with clubs: 1) wrong flex and, 2) wrong iron design. Many folks use shafts that are too stiff. Imagine if your swing speed was complimented with a shaft to match! You will hit the ball farther. Next is iron designs. The pro golfers can handle blades. For that matter, they could hit just about anything. Non-pro golfers? Not so much. Game improvement irons for average duffers? It will help you be consistent and maximize distance. I see a lot of upsides in this driver from Kirkland.

Nice review Rick. The driver looks premium and well functioning. I may get one for a back up or travel. Btw 90% of golf cloths are costco name brands like Pebble Beach or Oakley and 100% cost gloves -

I played my entire D1 career at UMN with Wilson Staff forged irons. These “secondary” brands always have hidden gems. I’m in the market for a new big stick, and this looks super appealing.

The TaylorMade mini driver out performed it and you can hit the Mini driver off the deck. Yes cost is more. But it has more forgiveness and more versatility. Thanks for this test Rick. Keep up the great work and Cheers.

I think part of the reason that other manufacturers don’t sell a driver in this price range is because they’re giving all the equipment away and sponsorships to PGA Tour pros, and everyone else in the world that they see fit to donate the equipment to and support. Costco is not doing that. We’re paying for all those freebies that these people get across the world even the KZbin golfers that have a sponsorship somebody has to pay for all that stuff that gets given out so they figure if the average Joe wants to play PGA quality equipment the same as the pros that’s where we get hit. As for the driver, it is awesome, some testers have put different shafts in it and seen even better results with an upgrade. But there’s certainly nothing wrong with that driver when you pay it right and you get 308 yards! Keep the reviews coming

The reason we pay so much for new golf clubs... raw materiials, R&D, manufacturing etc. Add to this the labour prices, marketing, staff, buisness locations (rent or mortgages). Plus the company has to make a profit. Got a feeling this driver is maybe a few years old tech so the prices are going to be much lower. Good on them tough for making pennies on the pound and providing cheap gear to get people playing.

Rich as usual you have a great review and unfortunately I have been trying to buy one in the US and can't seem to get one. I have checked all of the secondary sources and still can't buy one. Do you think I can buy one in the UK and have it shipped to this side of the pond???????

Great review as always Rick, however I’d love to see a more realistic test. You’re obviously a very good golfer, and I’d argue this is aimed at mid-high handicappers. It would be great to see you bring in a mid-high handicap player (like me) and test this alongside something like the QI10 MAX or PING G430 MAX, maybe also alongside the Callaway Edge from Costco

End of last year I managed to get a PXG gen 5 driver, fully fitted at their fitting centre for £199. They even upgraded the grip for free. I would just wait for pxg sales instead of getting the Kirkland driver.

Some commenters here have mentioned that one of the reasons why Costco's clubs are so much cheaper is that it is not paying endorsement fees to professionals. I once sat on an airplane next to a professional golfer on the Senior Tour, and he explained the whole system to me. He was a lifelong amateur who miraculously qualified for the Senior Tour when he was around 50. He was arguably the LEAST known pro golfer on a much less popular tour (I later found out that he ended up leaving after a year or so because he did not win all that much), and yet he was paid more than I was making a year at time, PLUS he received brand new clubs from his sponsor every single tournament. He played every week with completely brand new clubs. If Costco is not paying famous top professionals any fees, no wonder these clubs are so cheap.

You can however use a mizuno adapter to fit in the club head so you can get any shaft you want as long as you have that mizuno adapter

Great video Rick, the Kirkland equipment looks really interesting. As someone who is 6ft 5 but on a limited budget, do you think this driver would be ok as I am looking to modernise my bag but a brand new fitted driver from the big brands is out of my budget at this moment in time.
