Kirkland Signature Performance+ Performance Notes
In our testing, the Kirkland Signature Performance+ struggled to keep up with premium-priced balls in one major category: ball speed. Slower ball speeds created below-average distances in all three areas of our testing. Aside from being a few yards shorter through the bag, the Performance+ was competitive with balls that cost close to three-times as much, with competitive spin and launch characteristics, plus strong showings for stopping power, accuracy and consistency.
