Is there any way to check which Costco store carries it physically?
I called at the one in my area but they didn't have it. Like I wouldn't mind driving around 1hr or so haha.

Initial review:

http://www.golfwrx.com/637692/cos...s-discuss/
That's less of a "review" and more of a self-promo. GolfWRX will shill anything,

The competitors to a 3-wedge set from Costco are not Vokey or Cleveland, they're doing an apples to oranges comparison. These are the wedge sets of a more equal quality and value:

https://www.rockbottomgolf.com/go...wedge-set/

https://www.walmart.com/ip/Ram-Go...ight-Hand/

https://www.walmart.com/ip/Wilson...t/44186545



The Kirkland Signature golf balls took the world by storm because of the price/performance ratio. They worked almost exactly like a ProV1 and cost 1/3rd the price. These wedges have that equation upside down. They'll work exactly like a 3-wedge set from Ram, Wilson, Ray Cook, MacGregor or Tour Edge, but are being sold for twice the price. At $50 a set these would be a buy, at $150 you would have to be a chump to go anywhere near them.

I picked up the putter and I think it's solid quality, but it's a more reasonable price point for 1 club. I agree that this price for $150 is tough. It's either an amazing deal or they are not the same quality as top end wedges. My guess is they are almost as good of quality to the point where an average golfer wouldn't know the difference, and it's a great deal.

I attempted to post some pics. I just realized it looks like there is more info on the back of the box I missed as I was in a hurry with my kids. Sorry. It may have the bounce, etc on it. Oh well.

Here's the bounce from BollyBolly's link:
52-10, a 56-10 and a 60-8. All lies are 64deg. The 52 is D3, the 56 and 60 is a D4.

I'm glad you were able to look at them hands on and make that determination. Saves us all the effort of thinking that they would be similar to any decent wedge. Golf equipment is 75%+ marketing IMO. Kirkland branding does mean something though and that's high quality at a budget price.

Thought I'd add a comment on bounce:

I just got 3 new JAWS wedges this year which is why I didn't grab the Kirkland set. I didn't know how to pick a bounce. It was all about the lie when I read articles. Is it normally a tight lie, rough, etc. my thought was I do all of it. Sometimes out of fairway, sometimes sand, sometimes rough. So, I got middle of the road 10 bounce.

Well, I went and got fitted for my clubs. What he had me do is put tape on the bottom of the club and hit three balls off of plexiglass. You want the wear pattern centered. Mine wasn't, so he grinded my 10 bounce to a 12.

Anyways, that's a way to see if what you have is appropriate for you.

I just got into golf during the pandemic, so I have no idea if what you're saying is true. But you sound reliable.

I have or had all the wedges you list, I also have callaway titleist and cleveland wedges. The ones you listed do their job but the feeling is no where near a top wedge and thats why theyre priced accordingly. A lot of this price point is going to fall on which side of the spectrum do these play on. If its in the callaway titleist cleveland side or slightly under performing then $160 is a good price for 3 wedges IF you want/need new. It would be double/triple that to buy 3 callaway, titleist, cleveland NEW depending on brand level. Buying used is always cheaper even with the hugely over inflated golf market prices during covid so I highly suggest that to anyone who wants good value. If i see them I will buy 100% no thought though to try out.
