Any shoe that's comfortable first, waterpoof second and not white second A. Currently I have a pair of Ecco's but I'm not loyal to any one brand. I had an awesome pair of Adidas (laceless) that they stopped making and when it was time for new shoes I went with Adidas that had some plastic power traction band thingy. The location of it turned my left heel into hamburger in six holes of my third round in them. Luckily they were still under the 30 Day MBG and I got to swap them out for the Ecco's I have.

That's exactly the reason I love my Ecco Flexors (3 pair and counting.) Only shoe that has ever truly fit my feet. Sadly, the 2009 Flexor models look kinda ugly to me. I'm hoping they have more versions than the ones I have seen.

FootJoy athletics...best bang for the buck at 99$ per pair. The feel like I'm playing in my slippers!

I have a pair of adidas ones that I wear because I got them free brand new from my aunt's friend. They fit, they're comfortable and they're in good condition still. Kinda want some new shoes but of course there's the new putter first, and the new 3 wood, and the new irons...

Ecco. Flexor line.

Love your style

Harry Longshanks . It's Ecco all the way. They're great, even down to the part where the side of the tongue is connected to the rest of the shoe to make it totally waterproof. .... and as with most things, you get what you pay for. [I'll just put up the sandbags now because my radar says I'm about to be bombarded with Footjoy incoming]

I will have to look at the 2009 models. Footjoys are a possibility as well. I did have a pair years ago. They were white.

Understand your point

ClairefromClare . My suggestion is to keep your eye out for reductions. That's what I did & got a great deal on an end of season model. Now I'm hooked with my Eccos. Quality, quality, quality. To be fair, I do concede that Footjoys are a quality shoe also.

I'm done with Footjoys.....okay, there....I've said it. I've had numerous pairs over the years and they all wind up loose and roll to the outside sooner than any shoe I own.

I've been extremely pleased with my first pair of Nike shoes...bought them recently on sale for half what my last pair of FJs went for. Very stable, great golf shoe.


I'll buy Nike again.

Just like the commercial used to say...

"How do you break in a pair of FootJoys... Just take them out of the box"...

I have a really short wide foot (8 XW), and I know I can order a pair of FootJoys off the internet, and they will fit, right out of the box!

I currently have Nike's and they are fine but I have been eye balling the Footjoy ReelFit shoes. Seems like a great concept. Anyone have those?

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.

      Brendan Sorsby Sports Betting

      Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026.

      Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?
