Fred couples and a few on regular tour are wearing a golf shoe with a white sole that seems more like a sneaker type of stead of the traditional spikes. I cannot find anything in shops that resemble this. Am wondering what it is and if it is as comfortable as it appears.

Don't know, but on the subject of comfortable golf shoes, best I've tried so far is a pair Nike Air Max Summer. Comfortable like a running shoe, stable like a golf shoe. I don't understand why there are so many stiff and rigid golf shoes.

They looked like soccer turf shoes, they had little bumps on the bottom. They were not soccer shoes though, just the turf-like bottom.

Lol. I almost bought a pair at GG the other day because they were on closeout for about $45. Decided i don't need another pair of black and white golf shoes, though.

Does look like a pair that Ryan Moore might wear along with his little boy hat and tight clothes.

Has anyone bought these? They are to be worn both on the course and the street. Yet would the bottoms scratch(harm) your floors around the house?

I think we will see a change in golf shoes over the next couple of years. More comfortable and soft shoes are coming to the market, some even without spikes.

Ryan Moore wears the same ones. I heard they were actually built for Moore, but I don't know where I heard that, so i can't confirm.

      Day 137 - Upper back was tight today so I did some more pitching work. Really working on letting the club fall instead of forcing it.

      Day 39: Same thing as previous post, with a 5-iron for about 15 minutes. Feel pretty good about progress so far, so spent another 20+ minutes working on short game shots, which I have been really struggling with on course lately.

      Day 316: mirror work for a while. Working on getting my hips more open and my hands down faster in the downswing.

      My Swing (billchao)

      By billchao ·

      My short game is no longer a dumpster fire. It’s bordering on being the best part of my game at this point. I still need to stay out of the bunkers but I’m starting to hit shots to makeable distances (if only I could putt). I’ve pretty much gotten the three releases down. My feels for the releases: Drive the handle forward. I haven’t used this one too much lately. Left hand pulls the club. This is my standard motion. Right hand pushes the club. I use this occasionally for flop shots. I’m still in the process of learning how the ball reacts on the green with different shots so there’s plenty of room for improvement. The contact is clean so I’ll be able to dial it in with experience. The most important thing is to slow my tempo down. Way down. I need to bring the club back slowly so that momentum doesn’t put the clubhead in weird places. Not trying to create lag around the greens. Full swing has kind of fallen off but I haven’t practiced much lately. I’ll probably try to get some time in before the Ohio outing.
