That definitely looks like a rebranded older Titleist driver and that is exactly what Costco does. Most of their "Kirkland" products are rebranded products from well know manufacturers. The good thing is they seem to use quality manufactures to buy from and rebrand as Kirkland. Their batteries are Duracell's with the Kirkland wrapper and sold at half the price.

Great review! You bring into question the true value of being fitted for brand-name clubs. If I can go to Costco, buy off-the-shelf, lower priced clubs, and obtain the same level of on-course performance as compared to brand names, why wouldn’t I? As mentioned before, I’ve been Totally Titleist since 1995 and would be hard-pressed to switch. But for casual, new-comers to golf, that seems to be a no-brainer!

I would never pay all the money for the TSR3 when this driver is chasing it down the street at a fraction of the cost. Hats off to Kirkland, I love it and I wish them all the best with all the clubs they have out. They have never disappointed so far, thanks for the great test I love your inspiration!

Thank you! Thoughts: - seems the shaft was selected for low spin. With the vast majority of amateur players fighting high spin, likely a good choice for stock. - Both drivers were basically equal, and any tiny difference could be made up with ball tuning. Would be very interesting to see how this driver pairs with Kirkland balls - I dont foresee most single digits gaming this unless it fits perfectly into their swing profile. Not enough adjustability and fit options are very limited.
@MattSwanson

This is a VERY solid point: The KSig balls are (notoriously) high-spin, so making the driver more of a low-spin option actually makes a ton of sense.
