I just wanted to thank everyone for their responses!

I was able to try on a few different pairs this weekend and I actually ended up purchasing Nike's again! I was not even going to try them on but I tried the Adidas Tour 360's and they did not fit me very well, shame because they are so nice... I also tried the Adidas Traxion but they also did not fit right... I also tried the Etonic G SOK and those did not fit me either...

Like I said I have a hard time getting shoes that fit

Anyway, in the end I went with the Nike Nike SP-5 III and I am very happy with that choice. They fit just right and they are very comfortable. They also have a 2 year waterproof warranty so that is nice. Now I have all the equipment I need for another season, I just can't wait to get out on the course!

Has anyone tried Callaway golf shoes? They're one of the few companies that makes shoes in my size (6).

My Father in law got a pair last year and he really likes them. I am not 100% sure which model they are, but they are like one of these two pairs:

TGW has a clearance sale on last year's Adidas Tour 360. $129. Bought some last year and I love em. Limited sizes available, though.

I just bought my second pair of Adidas 360's off ebay for $100.

Thanks! I appreciate the response, I am seeing DriJoys at $229 a pair, though (Canadian)... A little too steep price wise...

I have not read all of the posts yet, but if you pay the $229 (assume you have to add gst & pst), but get 10 years out them, that $25 a year, plus $10 a year to replace spikes. I bought a pair of Footjoy Comforts at Golftown for about $100 and they were done after a season. And am about to wear out the cheap Nikes I bought for $69. I'll be looking into these Dryjoys for sure.

What's in my bag:
Driver : R7, 10.5 degree, stock stiff shaft
16 Degree Hybrid - Cobra Baffler DWS, with stiff stock shaft
20 Degree Hybrid - Cobra Baffler, with Accra Shaft, Stiff
26 Degree Hybrid - Cobra Baffler, with Accra Shaft, Stiff6 - PW - Bridgestone CG Mid, Dynamic Gold LiteWedges : TBA...


Last year, the year I started getting back into golf, I got some Nike's don't remember the model (one of the performance models) at the begining of the season...brown with black saddle. I really liked them, but unfortunatley looked bad with shorts. This year at the Golf Show I tried out several dry joys becuase my regular playing partners rave about them, however, they were two tight around the toes, same thing with the Addidas. I did however find a pair of Foot Joy contour series (white with tan saddle) that I bought...haven't played with em yet but they are an extremely comfortable shoe.

I would really like to try out some of the Bite shoes, however, I haven't come across any in the shops around me.

In my Grom:
Driver: :nike: Sasquatch 9.5° Graffalloy Shaft-Stiff Flex
FW: :nike: 3 (15°) & 5 (19°) Sasquatch Diamana Shaft-Stiff Flex
Hybrid: :touredge: Tour Edge Exotics Ironwood 21° Adila Shaft-Stiff Flex

    • I think mixing and matching makes you a better golfer over all.  Having said that, I don't do enough of it. 
    • Playing a tournament out in Vegas the first weekend in May. I've been playing this tournament since 2009.  Our tournament is hosted at Bear's Best.  I'll probably grab an additional practice round somewhere else in the Vegas area. Not sure where. Any suggestions?  So far around Vegas the ones I can remember I've played are:  Bear's Best ... obviously Prim Valley Resorts ... 20 years ago it was awesome, then it was bought and sold like 4 times.  Angel Park. ... Great deals. Not a bad course, 36 holes plus a 13 hole lighted executive par-3 course. It has a solid practice area. It gets a lot of play.  Wolf Creek ... I freaking love Wolf Creek, but it's 80 miles North, so a bit of a drive. ... Also, you can only hit irons on the driving range, which is interesting.  All three Paiute Golf Courses  ... I really enjoy Paiute as well. The Wolf course is my favorite, but you can't go wrong with any of them.  Bad Lands (Been closed down for a while now) ... Not my favorite, but gone now anyway.  Vegas National ... Surprisingly reasonable in terms of price. Also surprisingly forgettable.  Cascata ... I enjoyed it. But man, it's spendy. (A foursome can cost you $2500 all in.) They do give each group a forecaddie, so there's that.  Anyone have a suggestion as to where to play in and around Vegas. Let me know. My group is always looking for new places to play a practice round.   
    • Same, I rather be able to mix and match to get the ball flight I want. Chip a 9 iron or crush a 9 iron. It gives a lot of flexibility. It makes golf more fun. 
    • Most feels need to be extreme.  Example, I have to feel like my hands go down towards my right ankle or right hip pocket from the top of the backswing. I HATE IT! But the club gets on plane in the downswing. It is stupid difficult for me to do because of my old patterns. So, I may need to SLOW it down to be able to do it.  You have spent years ingraining movements that feel natural. So, if you are feeling a golf swing that feels normal, you are 99% likely using the old swing. It sucks, but you will need to make things uncomfortable till they become comfortable.  I can't find the video, but Tiger mentioned once, and I am getting the general of the quote not exact, but the feel of like 2-3 FT of clubhead position in the backswing is like 3" of real position change. There are videos of him exaggerating movements, and when he takes a normal swing, it is nothing like what he is exaggerating.    That isn't him making swing changes. That his him just being able to time up path to clubface more consistently.  At a certain point we should be able to move the body without needing to look at the body part moving. This is why training with mirrors can be a double edge sword. It is great to be able to see where the club is at, but in reality, you are not training your body to do that without looking at it. Sometimes you need that initial feedback to get things started.
