I have to admit, they are putting out some seriously good looking shoes. If they fit as good as they look I will soone own me a pair. I just have to get by the $250 price tag.

Question: ARe they $120 better than my dryjoys?

i have the tour 360 II's if thats what you are referring to. they are WAY comfortable. i was lucky enough to get them through my golf coach for free, so i dont know if their worth the money, but you wont be dissappointed with them, thats for sure.

I think the dryjoys are more comfortable than the tour 360s. I have both pairs at the moment and find the tour 360s very comfortable but i prefer the dryjoys. Also the dry joys are easier to clean and look a lot more like a proper golf shoe.
Golf is a game whose aim is to hit a very small ball into an even smaller hole, with weapons singularly ill-designed for the purpose.

I have a pair as well. Im happy with them. The only gripe (and its a minor one) is that the spikes they come with might raise you a little higher than you're used to if you wear dryjoys alot.

I completely agree. I have both the addidas Tour 360's and the Dry Joys. I love both, but the comfort is better with the Dry Joy.

I own some cheaper adidas that were only 60 bucks, but I also have some dryjoys that I've had for a couple of months. they are WAAY comfortable, and in tournaments i always wear my dryjoys b/c they are so much more comfortable. But the adidas are nice too, and look a little classier as well

i bought last years clima cool blaze for $50 at golf shoes only. wore them last night on a wet course and my feet were totally soaked!!!

didnt realize they would make a show that water could get in so easily....i have to wear my old shoes when it is wet apparently.......

i have 360's, 360 II's and Dryjoys - I rotate them.

The Dryjoys are best for wet conditions and probably the most comfortable. However, they have stretched so now as tight as I can get them is almost not tight enough. So I use the 360's mostly and the 360 II's for perfect conditions and the range (trying to make them last)

I'll be getting 360 II's again before they are gone. Very good shoe.

Have never had golf shoes but planning on getting some within the next few weeks as I want to start going round some of the nicer courses near me which have strict dress codes. Some of the adidas shoes do look nice but can be very expensive too. Hawkeye, where do you get your golf equipment?

    • Eh... what's he going to say? "Hey, I bought a new driver. It's 10 yards shorter and I hit twice as many OB now." Does he have any data to back up his claim? Or is he just going by what he saw at his fitting?  I've been using either Shotscope or Arccos since 2018 and if there's one thing I've learned is that it's the archer not the arrow. When I'm hitting the driver well, it goes far and straight. When I'm a mess, it's a mess.  If you were properly fit for a driver in the last (dare I say 10 years) 5 years for sure. I'd be surprised if you can get more than a couple of yards out of it by getting a new one. The COR rule has been 0.83 since 1998, with widespread and standardized enforcement since 2003. Obviously, the engineers can still optimize spin and launch and shaft flex and/or kick point. So there are things that can be done. But I believe the days of 10 or 15 yard gains are over... unless your current driver is unfit for you. (as @Typhoon92 mentions above.) If you were fit for your epic. You will likely see very little on course performance difference.  Having said that, I get a new driver every 2 or 3 years... Why? Because I like shiny things. So, if you want a new driver, get a new driver.   
    • My suggestion to you is to take your driver with you and go to a golf store where you can hit the new Ping 440 AND your own driver side by side.  They you can decide.  Very simple test you can do for free. You have no idea ( and your friend probably doesn’t either) how old his old driver was, what loft it was compared to the new one, what shaft and flex he had in his old driver vs. the new one.  
    • I might be inclined to try to figure out what is bothering them. Is it that their index is 12 but they're only getting 10 strokes? If that's the case then I think I would just point out that their handicap is being adjusted for the difference between par and the course rating. It's adjusting for this course being easier than typical for the par. Course rating being roughly what a scratch should shoot on a good day and par being the sum of the numbers on the card. The whole concoction (which Erik and Dave explained already) is simply a way to get everyone to play on an even playing field. So if everyone plays to their handicap, then they'll all have the same net score. The adjustments are there mainly for those instances where something more complicated is happening like playing different sets of tees, but still apply otherwise. It's also easiest to say "your handicap index is 12.4, which means you should shoot 10 over par to play to your handicap" rather than "your handicap index is 12.4, which means you should shoot 12.4 over the course rating after adjusting for the slope", which is a whole lot of gobbledygook to people who don't know how the system works.
