When Costco began selling its Kirkland Signature golf balls seven years ago, it took the golf world by storm.
They were such a hit with golfers that even the mighty Titleist, the top golf ball manufacturer, took notice and sued Costco for patent infringement. Fortunately, the suit was settled, and Costco returned to selling its golf balls like hotcakes.
In addition to helping you save money on groceries, the big-box juggernaut also offers a variety of golf and golf-related products that enthusiasts should know about. Here are some of their best.

Earn 2% cash rewards at grocery stores and Costco
The Wells Fargo Active Cash® Card(Rates and fees) is a powerful rewards card that allows you to earn unlimited 2% cash rewards on purchases — including on groceries, even at warehouse stores like Costco.
New cardholders can also earn a one-time cash rewards bonus — $200 cash rewards bonus after spending $500 in purchases in the first 3 months!
If you’re looking for a powerful rewards card that offers an extended intro APR period, look no further, the Wells Fargo Active Cash® Card checks that box too!
This card also offers an intro APR of 0% for 12 months from account opening on purchases and qualifying balance transfers (then 19.74%, 24.74%, or 29.74% Variable). Which is great for someone who wants a break from high interest rates, while still earning rewards.
The best part? There's no annual fee.

Kirkland Signature golf balls
Of course, we have to start with Kirkland Signature golf balls, Costco’s first effort in the golf category.
A pack of two dozen balls will set you back about $34.99. Compared with Titleist balls, that’s a deal: A dozen Titleist Pro V1 balls run about $55.
Of course, professionals like Tiger Woods might not use them — he gets his Bridgestone edition for free — but they’re a great deal for recreational players of the sport.
Kirkland Signature golf gloves
Level up your golf game with Kirkland Signature's leather glove four-pack. These gloves are made with high-quality Cabretta leather that's both durable and comfortable to wear.
The four-pack is a good deal at $29.99, as you'll pay only $3 less for a single pair of comparable Titleist gloves.
CaddyTek golf cart
Walking and using a pushcart on the golf course has become a popular way to play. The CaddyTek 3-wheel golf cart is a bargain at only $149.99, which is one of many Costco hacks.
It has a lightweight design and easy-to-use features. The swivel front wheel makes maneuvering easy, and the sturdy frame keeps your bag secure. And did we mention the convenient beverage holder?
Over 3,000 reviewers gave this cart 4.7 out of 5 stars, praising its design, maneuverability, features, and value. It’s certainly cheaper than an electric golf cart.
Shopping online has its perks. It's super convenient, but it can be time consuming to find the best deals. Instead of hunting for coupon codes (that don't always work!) and opening tons of browser tabs comparing prices, you can try Capital One Shopping.

Dri Light Summit golf stand bag

This lightweight bag has a comfortable double strap, 14 dividers, and convenient pockets to store all your gear. And don't worry about unexpected rain showers — the bag is water-resistant.
This well-reviewed product is comparable to the Titleist Hybrid 14 stand bag, which will run you $265.00. Reviewers say it’s more than worth the money, too.

Many avid golfers never want to miss a chance to practice their putting stroke, even if they're far away from the golf course.
If that’s you, you should pick up the Perfect Putting mat for at-home use for just $99.99.
“I'm getting great use out of the Perfect Putting Mat,” a satisfied reviewer noted. “Its compact design is perfect for the office and the ball return system makes the time spent efficient.”
Get a protection plan on all your appliances
Did you know if your air conditioner stops working, your homeowner’s insurance won’t cover it? Same with plumbing, electrical issues, appliances, and more.

Arizona vacation
Ready to jet to a beautiful resort in a warm climate with 27 holes of golf right on the premises? Costco offers the perfect option: a vacation package at the Westin Kierland Resort & Spa. The package includes a rental car, too.
Costco members loved this vacation. “Beautiful resort in a great location,” one gushed. “Walking distance to shops and restaurants. Golf course was amazing.”
Florida vacation
If you’re looking for a great golf vacation on the East Coast, Costco’s vacation package to the Ritz-Carlton Sarasota is the luxe option you’re looking for.
This five-star hotel is located not only minutes from championship golf but also from some of the best beaches in the country.
Reviewers loved the location and the nearby dining and attractions. Note that the golf package may cost extra at the hotel.
Sunglasses
You know that the sun can be a nuisance when you're trying to make that six-foot birdie putt. Fortunately, Hobie Venice sunglasses can help with that.
They have polarized lenses that reduce glare and a lightweight frame that will make sure you stay focused on your game.
Satisfied customers like the price of $53.99 and the way the shades kept the sun, wind, and the elements at bay.
Sunscreen
Want sunscreen that won't make you feel like there’s a slimy layer of grease on your face? Neutrogena Ultra-Sheer Dry-Touch sunscreen provides SPF 55 protection and absorbs quickly.
At $15.99 for a two-pack, it's also water-resistant, so you won't have to worry about reapplying in the middle of a hot, sweaty round of golf.
In fact, a reviewer who is also a golfer keeps the sunscreen on whenever they are out for a round because of that.
Golf umbrellas
The weather isn't always perfect on the course, which is why it's important to be prepared.
Fortunately, Costco sells a two-pack of 62-inch-wide golf umbrellas from ShedRain for $49.99.
Compared to the player's folding umbrella that Titleist sells for $45, reviewers say these get the job done and for half the price. We're sold too.
Hand warmers
If you’re a golf addict, you want to play year-round and it can get chilly out on the course in the cooler months.
So, in addition to warm clothing, you may want to keep a stash of Little Hotties hand warmers in your golf bag. Costco sells a two-pack of 40 each for $34.99 so you'll be set all winter.
Customers who purchased this item said it works well in keeping hands warm during all kinds of athletic activity, which bodes well for golfers.
Bottom line
Costco is good for saving money on so much more than groceries, including many items that every golfer needs.
As with so many Costco products, you can get outfitted for less than you’d spend at the competition without sacrificing quality — and you won’t have to make extra cash to support your hobby.
With talk of changing requirements for golf balls swirling in the golf world, the future may demand that new standards be implemented. But until then, Costco has you covered.
