Does anyone know how I can get rid of these water stains? I wore these shoes on a very wet morning last week, and by the time my round finished it was pretty dry. Obviously they dried like this. These are one of my favorite pairs of shoes, and I want to get the back to looking new…

Thanks.

Try saddle soap, from Wikipedia:

it is a preparatory compound containing mild soap and softening ingredients such as neatsfoot oil , glycerin , and lanolin . It also contains bee's wax to protect leather. It is used for cleaning, conditioning and softening leather , particularly that of saddles and other horse tack , hence its name. It is also commonly used for cleaning and conditioning leather footwear.

how old are the shoes? If there taking on water, then they lost there waterproofing. Which is usually 1-2 years..

If the saddle soap works, go to a JC Pennies, or maybe a walmart, they got shoe polish supplies. Give them a good polish and there should be some waterproofing spray that last about 6 months.

Well they are new, only owned them for maybe 2 months. They're actually an older model from a few years back. These are Nike's older SP8 TW shoes. HOWEVER, I just bought them brand new about a month ago. I found the last pair on eBay I believe (from a retail seller). I looked everywhere for them too! I love these shoes an I have a white pair as well. But I haven't had any issues with my white pair… If they are flawed and taking on water, do you think Nike will still take them back and repair/replace them?

And just so we are clear, my feet were not wet. Just the shoes outside had these water stains after my round.

Im going to have to try that saddle soap…

      Modern PGA Tour Bunker Shot

      By saevel25 ·

      I found this video... Old Method 1. Open the clubface a ton 2. Open the stance a ton 3. Swing along the foot line New Method 1. Set up with the handle lower, and the ball further away form the body. 2. The clubface still opens up, but lowering the handle helps in not having to open the stance as much or for some keep the stance closed. Keeping the stance closed allows them to keep their weight forward much easier.  Now, I question that the PGA Tour players are hitting steeply down into the sand. I think they may have gotten this wrong in the video. You can load up the weight on the front foot, and still hit the ball shallow. The amount of sand taken out in some of the swings is not that much, and the divot doesn't look that deep.  Thoughts?

      Model Local Rule Rocks and Roots (Please Let Me Know Your Thoughts)

      By saevel25 ·

      I would say I am not a fan. Honestly, I never ran into a situation where a tree root was anywhere close to the fairway. I am not a fan of free relief from a natural occurring feature of the course. Guess what, you have an option, unplayable lie. I know people think fairways should be pristine and free of all things that could inhibit your shot. I've played courses were big a** trees overhang a fairway and you have no shot at the green. It happens. If you think you will injure yourself, or do not want to chip out sideways from a root, then take an unplayable lie.  If you apply this rule, what is stopping someone from not being able to take a right-handed swing to being able to take a swing? A tree could be in the fairway (think hole #18 at Pebble Beach). They are like, I need relief. Now they get to have a shot at the green when the tree is there as an obstruction, something to play around.  Sorry, I do not think this is a good rule at all. If the course has that many trees, that it comes up a ton. Then vote as a club to have them removed.

      Best Shot of the Week

      By klineka ·

      I've thought about this quite a bit since I've started using Shot Scope. Not all shots from a certain yardage that end up a certain distance from the hole are created equal, but I guess the thought is that over time those should even out since there would be other times where you're hitting into a funnel pin or something where it plays "easier" than what the SG suggests.

      Are You a Fair Weather or All Weather Golfer?

      By The Flush ·

      I voted decent weather golfer.  Generally it needs to be over 50 and sunny with no wind or over 70 if there is wind or rain.  I generally don't play in the rain or when it is over 95 unless it is league night and I can't reschedule or some type of event. Most of the time that I have played in the rain is because we just got caught in the rain, almost never tee off in the rain. We did tee off in the rain the first time we played at Eaglesticks, but it was warm and there was not much of a chance of rain and while it absolutely poured for a while, it stopped after 4 or 5 holes.
