Kirkland Irons

KCee

scotts33 It may be true, but it works! When I went for my last iron fitting I was 99% sure I would walk out with a set of Mizunos. I demoed several different models along with Miura, Epon, Callaway, et all. The Miuras felt the best by far. Honestly the Mizunos felt the worst by far. Maybe shouldn't have been surprised as I haven't really liked the feel of Mizunos for the last 15 years or so. I swear I remember 20 year old Mizunos feeling sooo smooth, but they all feel sort of hard/harsh now....but no I did not try any blades. The Miuras were like butter, but the TM P770 felt as good and maybe a bit better. The goo works.

scotts33 Ya know what goo and hollow body is about? It's about hiding shitty metallurgy and making irons "feel" about the forged"feel". It's totally about "feel".

That goes for P790's and whatever TS irons Golfworks. It "feels: good so it must be Mizuno good. NOT!

Sound of ball off face compression is "feel"!

So you're saying it's.......

My $ is on you..😉

sdandrea1 Need to see what shafts they are going to use. Subsonic is in play.

Subsonic What shaft exactly, are you wanting to see in them, to make you buy?

I laugh when people say such things. Knowing they have not bought other brand irons that are /will be, same pricing or (most) even cheaper. And Steve has even said we could get heads only from Giga Golf, and they have a very similar iron head.....complete iron at only $62/ea. . So does PXG (similar + brand recognition), and you can even get the specs you want, with shaft choice. There are a few other companies with similar heads that have really good pricing, less than Costco will probably have.

Just sayin'......again.....a lot of hot air about a subject no one will buy. 😉

They will probably try some kind of "one size fits most" steel offering. Not that there really is such a thing, but PING was hugely successful in the 80s with the ZZ Lite and Callaway had similar success with their Uniflex steel in the 90s. When shaft fitting became a high-tech (over-thought) "science", the masses started shying away from "close enough" shaft selection.

Yeah, but you wouldn't have the "cool" factor that comes with playing well with warehouse clubs! There's a shit to of options that MIGHT be same or cheaper like you mentioned, including Golfworks. We still don't know the price yet and there's something about the Kirkland brand that's intriguing.

Subsonic

Par4QC Here is the rub Geezer. You have obviously never been to Costco. Cause that is the place where you buy shit you don't need or often even know you want. I actually think there is a hallucinogenic drug in the churro dust.

I was literally looking at the Costco Callaway short set and it was 500 hundred and change. Ms. Subsonic is like throw that it in the cart and let's roll. I (a degenerate ho) actually pulled the plug. What kind of Twilight Zone stuff is that?

None of that other shit you mention is in a Costco setting. What happens in Costco, stays in Costco.

Regarding the shafts, something you have heard of KBS steel perhaps Recoils in graphite.

The Indi wedges are phenomenal, have had a 52 and 56 in my bag almost 3 years. Nothing stays in my bag long if it doesn’t work well enough to earn a spot. The only Kirkland product I’ve tried is their ball, and it’s way too spinny for me.

They do look great and that bodes well for the irons.

i won't rule out buying a set of the irons. I would need stiff flex and the price will have to be reasonable

Subsonic You have obviously never been to Costco.

There are myriad reasons people like me do not go in those places. 800+ credit rating, 100K in CC limits (if any limits), older.... bordering on idiocy (not senility), and they have things no one could possibly ever want, yet need to buy. You are a much younger American, but know this language I type here.

Subsonic Regarding the shafts, something you have heard of KBS steel perhaps Recoils in graphite.

Both of which are my choices also. But I seriously doubt Costco is going to go that route. Their shaft in the wedges are some kind of 'wedge flex' True Temper. Look for similar in the irons when they come out.

Subsonic I actually think there is a hallucinogenic drug in the churro dust.

I almost bought something at COSTCO because I didn't know what it was. There's some weird shit happening in there.

Par4QC

Subsonic Too bad you already bought. Found the set for ya, with the correct shafts.................and price. Actually cheaper.

The goo is about feel. The thin face and hollow body make them go farther and higher. That’s a fact. Even at my 70 mph swing speed.

That fast, eh?

When there is goo. Not all have it in their hollow body irons. And sometimes it just does not help, when they do have it.

My guess is a 90-105g steel shaft 🤮

Par4QC True Temper.

Odds are it will be an Elevate or the XP whatever those were/dynalite. No way it's
KBS, they have not had stock and too many reports of bent tips.

sdandrea1 You buy that, bring it home, it lays around, and a couple years down the road, it gets thrown out.
Months later, you come to find out it was the (as an ex.) hose for your golf cart tire pump.

I relate this because "a friend" told me of such a thing. 🤔
