Where can I buy these? I tried on their website a few weeks ago and I had some in my cart then the website crashed and they disappeared.

The $15-per-dozen Kirkland Signature golf balls are USGA conforming, and are produced by Nassau Golf Co. Ltd of South Korea.

There are only like 5 golf ball manufacturing plants in the world.

To comment on this, I just assumed it was a given that people didn't actually think there were Costco workers making golf balls in the back. Just saying...

It's the exact same ball as the Nassau Quattro just rebranded. The Kirkland, Taylormade, Snell and some other ball I can't remember are all made at the same plant.
I use Snell MTB. It's a fantastic ball for $27/dozen. Lower spin off tee and fast spin around greens when compared to ProV1x. I've played them for about a year now and they are very well made.
The reason the Kirkland ball is so tough to get is that companies have to secure manufacturing capacity at these plants way ahead of time and Costco wasn't expecting this type of demand.

Is this a new brand? I've never heard of it. Where do you purchase?

Snell is relatively new. I think it was started by a couple of former Titleist engineers.

You can only buy them online at SnellGolf.com
There are two balls. The MyTourBall (Softer) and The Get Sum (Harder). No shipping costs. And you can get a "test pack" with 6 balls of each to test each type for $27.

I have heard that Snell is an outstanding ball.

Very playable. I play prov1x and its comparable, but feels odd off my mid to long irons. Not bad, just different.
NOT a brag at all, but distance isn't a factor. I need low spin off the tee and workability around the green.

The Snell ball is pretty good ... Probably the best of the lesser known brands ... Vice is also a great ball but sometimes this may happen

A friend gave me a sleeve, and I played 2 rounds with them. Seemed to perform as well as ProVX.
