If they didn't have the flat sole, they could look pretty good.

Other than 1 pair of Airwalks I had in 4th grade (which I wore until they literally fell apart), I could never stand the feel, look, or style of "skate" shoes. Went through a few pair of Vans and such, but never could get that same feel that I loved about the Airwalks I used to have.

This, which I agree look very much like something a pre-teen emo punk would wear, are actually kind of interesting.

More so though is the link that Erik posted about TRUE linkswear...I do believe those are going to be purchased by next spring!

While we are on the subject of skate-style golf shoes, Puma also makes one, called the "Golf Club" then there are the Ecco Street, the True Linkswear mentioned above, then there are the Nike Air Anthems. There is another company called Radio Active that makes a skate style golf shoe, too. There are a lot of people on here not so keen on this idea, and I'm really not so sure why. Maybe I'm just younger than most people on here, but I wish other skate shoe companies would put out some golf shoes....

Exactly. I don't care how comfortable they are, I'm not wearing anything that looks like the shoes my nine-year-old sister wears to school (although hers are pink... just to clarify).

3 Wood:  XL

Irons: 4-5:  AP1; 6-PW:  XL

tacoma... explains it. jk. :)

i wear golf shoes to go golf...if i wanted to look like some preteen emo kid in chunky skater shoes while i golfed....ok well i just wouldn't. Nike Anthems are modeled after classic Nike Dunks which are not skate shoes. (yes dunks were later popularized by skaters, bboys, etc). Ecco street shoes don;t look like chunky skatershoes either. Those, the OP posted, look like chunky big round skater shoes from DC or something. and believe me, i'm not old by any means, im just 25, but you would find me dead before i had those on my feet. The ones Iacas posted aren't bad...just the ones the OP posted...

I wouldn't really want a shoe like that to golf in simply because I don't find skate shoes comforatable. I think some of you are being a little dramatic when you say it would make you look like a teenage emo kid though....

The ones Icas posted look pretty cool, I am going to look into them a little more.

    • I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.   
    • Day 115 12-5 Skills work tonight. Mostly just trying to be more aware of the shaft and where it's at. Hit foam golf balls. 
    • Day 25 (5 Dec 25) - total rain day, worked on tempo and distance control.  
    • Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
