As I said, the putter looks fine, but it’s not going to win any beauty contests amongst the major putter brands out there.Ĭostco offers the KS1 stock at 34.5 inches with two 10 gram sole weights and a SuperStroke Counter Core Mid Slim 2.0 grip.
Again, it’s fine, but sort of has a cheaper look to it. Even though this putter is “100% forged and CNC milled stainless steel”, they still went the route of using a milled stainless insert. The Kirkland badge in the cavity looks kind of cheap, if we’re being honest, as does whatever this “TRULINE” feature on the neck is. It’s a wider-profile Anser 2 shape in a matte silver finish with the usual Kirkland brand color schemes. So obviously we’re talking about one of the hottest putters in recent golf history, right?Ī common theme will come up with this putter, and it starts with the looks. While the putters didn’t fly off the shelves at the select stores they were in, they sold out almost immediately online and the prices soared through the roof on ebay just as fast. After months of speculation and high-grade investigation by fellow golf nerds, the KS1 finally became available for purchase. It was nothing more than an ad for a Costco golf ball, but there was about a third of a putter sole laying behind the ball that clearly said Kirkland on it. We first saw hints at a Kirkland putter sometime back in the Fall of 2019. Naturally, I couldn’t miss out on this hype train. Fast forward a few years and Costco has reignited that buzz with the new Kirkland Signature KS1 putter. Secondary market resale prices for these balls went through the roof and Costco was officially a notable player in the golf industry.
Everything from the outrageously low price, the perceived legitimate premium quality, and the general mystery and intrigue not only had the internet abuzz, but also led to massive demand for this new gem. When the world was first introduced to the Kirkland Signature 4-piece golf balls, Costco found itself immediately in the center of Golf Internet hype.
