Britt is a small business owner, author, and freelance golf expert that knows this game inside and out. If you look at the packaging the yellow balls are made in a different plant from a different country. The 2018 and 2021 generations of the Kirkland Signature Performance+ line had an average compression of 86 and 91, respectively. I play a wide range of balls (though I play K Sigs the most) and don’t notice giant differences between them. With all of the testing, I did between the Kirkland golf balls and the Titleist golf balls on the course, this greenside spin makes Kirkland golf balls just a little less valuable than the premium Titleist Pro V1.

The way you can tell this is version 3 is where it says “Performance” in small type surrounded by double arrows on both sides. Taking these to the golf course has taught me a few things about this popular golf ball that you should know before you purchase. Costco grabbed golfers’ attention across the globe when they released their original Kirkland Signature ball with its three-piece design and urethane cover drawing comparisons with the best golf balls.

I don’t personally feel that the Costco ball has the same level of “bite” that a premium ball with a better cover does, but a good wedge player will still be able to stop the ball well enough.

If you are looking for an all-out budget urethane golf ball, this one offers excellent performance in the short game. These Kirkland signature golf balls feature a urethane cover for improved feel, control and durability.

I didn’t, however, feel like the lack of distance in the irons was negative; it felt more like I could control the shots because of the little bit of spin you get with the Kirkland Signature golf balls.
