Well personally I prefer the classic shoe, I can still find comfortable ones but it just adds to the whole aspect of the game to me at least

Classic hands down. I hate sneaker type of shoes to begin with, the last thing I would ever do is golf in them. I don't even own but a pair I use for running. That't the ONLY time I wear them - otherwise it's strictly Doc Martins or workboots.

I voted classic because they're, well, classier looking. :P

Classic. I want golf shoes that look like golf shoes, not golf shoes that look like they belong on a basketball court.
One of the coolest things about golf is the respect for tradition and IMO, sneaker-style golf shoes spit in the face of tradition.

I wear strictly Adidas training shoes these days, mainly due to my healing ankle and all. But, I usually wear them in summer in general. I'll break out the traditional looking shoe during winter months.

I prefer sneaker type but thats just because of my oddly shapped foot. Classic shoes just tend not to fit right.

I used to be a classic person but the addidas 360 look sweet as, and are the most comfy golf shoes i have ever owned.

I definately prefer the classic. I am very partial to FJs, and love the Classic Tours and Dry Premiers.

I own 4 pairs of all white Ecco's, including a pair of World Class GTX's that I picked up at a local Ecco outlet for 160, and one pair of Addias 360II (Sergio Garcia versions)

I couldnt see myself wearing a sneaker style, sure they're comfortable as hell though

I just have not had the notion to try anything other than classic. I have Footjoy Dryjoys and really like them and they are really comfortable to me.

I have "sneaker" style Nikes and I like them a lot. Very comfortable.

Anything other than classic "spits in the face" of golf?? Wow. Havent heard that one before.

If classic means the saddle style golf shoes, then I'm a sneaker guy. I'm assuming my Adidas Powerbands are sneaker style, right?

I like the look of the new Addidas sneaker golf shoe but I play in the morning and my feet would get soaked if I played in those.

      So, you are currently playing right handed but do you Cary a left-hand club just in case you need it for better stance? I cannot play left-handed at all but always thought this would be a good idea if I could hit left-hand.

      How Does Scheffler's 3-4 Year Prime Compare to Tiger's?

      By GolfSwami · Posted

      Best Seasons of All Time | Data Golf Best round and event-level strokes gained performances since 1983.   Going back to 1983 adjusting for field strength, Woods has the top 6 seasons by strokes gained. from Data Golf Scheffler has the 7th  8th, 12th and 15th. Woods has three other seasons in the top 20.    Also notable is Rory's highest rated season in the 28th best season. 44 year old Jack Nicklaus has the 36th highest strokes gained season.

      Too Old?

      By RetiredOldMan · Posted

      Hi Everyone,  i ordered a new Qi 35 Driver, 10.5*, Regular Flex Diamoana shaft. Received by Fed X on Thursday, June 4th.  Took to Precision Valley and had a "Jumbo Grip" installed.  Friday morning, headed to Claflin, Ks. and played 18 holes. Front 9 wasn't to bad but I had hit my budddy's Qi with better success. Finally got a little more accustomed to the new club. I shot a 50.  Back 9, I started hitting the driver really well with the Driver delievering longer and straight drives down the fairway.  On my last drive, it was about 230 off the tee. I shot a 53.  (We play for .10/hole; $1.; Birdie; $5 or an Eagle. I won $0.60)  I was tired and headed home. (46 miles one way to play this course but the yearly rate is very cheap. They also have grass greens instead of sand.) I pull my Golf cart with a trailer.My nearest course witrh grass greens  is 25 miles away. Saturday,  I had the iPhone in do not disturb. Finally took it off of DND and I had a text from my golfing buddy that he wanted to play Hays late afternoon. So, he came by, picked my up and we headed to Hays. I was tired from playing 18 holes Friday and was hoping I could play 9 holes and call it a day. At Hays, KS.. I started off pretty rough and just could't seem to relax enough to hit well. (I was planning of finishing the front nine and the go home. However, on hole number 8, it's a 322 yard par 4, and I was able to get on in 2 and 2 putt for a par. #9 hole is a 114 yard par 3 and I hit an 8 iron and landed on the west edge of the fringe for pin high. Chipped up and 1 putted for another par. Front nine = 53 Headed to the back 9. Eerything started to click and #10 = 6; #11=5, #12 = 5, #13 = 4, #14 (Par 5) on in 3 and 2 ptted for par [Driver, 3 wood, and 9 iron and 2 putts] , #15 Par 4; I had a 6, #16 Par 4, I had a, #16 I had a 5, #17 Par 5,  I had a 5. (Driver, 3 wood, 3 wood, 8 iron, 1 putt; #18 Par 3, I had a 4.     BACK 9:  I SHOT A 45!   Yes sir, I like this Driver. I would like to go out again tomorrow but will see how I feel. My goal is to shoot my age before I turn 80 year old.  So, backto Right handed clubs. Qi35 TaylorMade Driver, 3 Wood, Callaway Rogue; 5 Wood Callaway Rogue, Majek Hybrids 4-PW, A Wedge, Loft wedge (60*); White Hot Blade Putter.    When I decided to change to the new driver, I went back to playing right handed. My hybrids are failrly new and are easier to hit. I do carry a conventional 7 iron in case I ge into a bad rough.  I will keep you up to date as the summer moves on.   Blessings,  RetiredOldMan
