Not saying you don't bring up a valid point, but a user named snaphooker on the WRX thread found one up here:



Though not specifically named I would imagine it was around the GTA somewhere, can't see someone coming across a prototype ball in the prairies. Maybe they'll only carry it in certain parts of Canada?

Greyhawk should have a few in the rough/water

You should probably ask an executive that works for Costco.

it's been in the works for a while (granted they are a smaller population, but maybe it's because Sam's Club got there first!?)

That might be only the 2nd Kirkland ball found 'in the wild', and both are in Canada? One costco exec is having a bad time on the course!

Re: Rumoured Costco Kirkland Signature 4-piece balls

The only question is whether I leave it in the woods when I find it or not? Right now only keeping found Prov1's, Tour Preferred, Provect A's, Pentas & chrome softs.....

Looks like a Callaway HEX pattern the way the light hitting it on the top.

yes that was my observation as well. The Hex pattern was created by Royal Rubber that made the Royal Plus 6 ball released in the mid '70.

Callaway acquired numerous ball patent rights when it bought up Spalding and the Hex dimple might have been among them.

Titleist released "their" hex in 2009 in spite a patent lawsuit by Callaway.
Ironically Titleist is now suing smaller competitors on similar hex dimple patterns to theirs, one of them being Vice.

I think the hex is lighting. To me this looks like regular dimples.

Re: Rumoured Costco Kirkland Signature 4-piece balls

I have the Hex-Bite and Hex Control Callaway balls and the dimples are different. It is the lighting in those pictures that make it look like hexagonal dimple but the Costco ball have circular dimples if look closely. Whereas the Callaway balls have hexagon dimples.
