I'm in the market for some new shoes. I'm getting tired of my Nikes...not really satisfied with the comfort and the spikes keep falling out. Is it me, or is the Q-Lok system junk?

I've read here about the Adidas 360s but I have low arches and Adidas have traditionally been narrow for me, which ultimately hurt my arches. So, I've been thinking about the FootJoy SYNR-G. Do any of you have experience with this shoe? I'd be interested in any suggestions as long as the shoe has a roomier toe box and arch area.

Thanks - Jason

Not sure about the SYNR-G's but I'd check out the FJ DryJoy's. They are very comfortable and I got a pretty good deal on them for 80 dollars at Dick's.

Review coming up on the SYNR-Gs. Best shoes I've ever owned (or, basically, tied with the ReelFits and the GF:IIs). I've never seen a need to try much outside of FootJoy - I know what fits my feet.

Great! I'm looking forward to it.

    • Day 228 4-4 More hip/chest turn and wrist arching. Working on hinging wrist a bit later. Foam balls. 
    • Day 27 (4 Apr 26) - Worked with grandson on basic pitches/punches in the back yard with varied irons/wedges.  Wrapped up the day rolling some putts on the 30’ carpet I can set up in the yard to give varied terrain - and this carpet rolls almost too easy. A great way to figure a read and know that pace has to be near perfect to get in the hole.  
    • A bit of a struggle today.  Just some thoughts/musings.  For the backswing, it is like I am never going to be moving on from this. I don't know if I can ever get to the point where the backswing isn't like over 1.5 seconds in duration. Which is probably not ideal. I would like to get to the point where I can just fling the arms back and up.  I have to feel like my hands are going to hit my right thigh from P1 to P2. If not then they like to move 2-5 inches towards the ball from P1 to P2. Then it's just bad from there. This feeling is my hands not gaining much depth, just maintaining depth from set up. From the DTL view, the hands head towards the camera.  While I am doing that, hinge the crap out of the club with my wrist only. Hinge in a way that the club is pointing at the camera at P2.  From P2, lift the hands straight up. I can get here, and still roll the club inside and get it way too shallow.  With the downswing. There isn't much here. I still can't get the flow of this or the sequencing of this to line up. It doesn't help that hinging from P1 to P2 just throws off my entire timing as well.   
    • Day 550 - 2026-04-04 Practiced in the sim at a club for awhile. Did a SW ladder and practiced for awhile with my 7I.
