KascoBalls?

[Bad9]

Found this at my MIL house. There are no golfers in the house and no course within 500km so I don’t know how it got here. When did Kasco do balls?

Kasco has made balls for some time. Including currently.

I remember the K2K clubs from way back but this is the first ball I have ever seen. And it’s in the most unlikely house I can think of to find a golf ball

It is an odd ball to find for certain. Did a bit of searching and that ball line (RS-1) was introduced in 1982 by Kasco. So it may be nearly 40 years old depending upon how long that line of balls was available.

Kasco, brings back memories. I had a Kasco utility/rescue before it was a thing. I remember it being a pretty good club. Had no idea they made balls.

RS366 was a superb ball. RS1 was a tour offering I my memory serves me well.

While one may believe TM Penta TP was the first 5-layered ball in the world, Kasco sold 5-layered ball (Kasco Royal) at least from 2005. Sad thing is that conforming list at that time only showed up to 3P (3 piece ball) in 2005; 4 and 5 layered balls were categorized as O (others). Can still find Kasco Royal in the 2021 conforming list, and can see 5P for construction.

Wilson products are sold through Kasco in Japan, including balls.

 

Kasco also make their own clubs, balls, and golf apparel, but they're not distributed in North America or Europe.

This is a link to their 2021 catalogue (link goes straight to PDF). A friend of mine has a couple of the Kasco Dolphin Wedges, but I haven't seen him use them lately.

Interesting and thanks for sharing.  The sole of those Dolphin wedges is somewhat reminiscent of the 4-way sole of the old Top Flite Tour irons.
