Look at the Ecco line - the 'Street Premiere' is super comfy IMO.

Footjoy SYNR-G are really comfortable as are the Adidas Tour 360 4.0 - both can be found online at pretty good discounts right now.

Nike Lunar. Look great (and look like golf shoes, not like skate shoes or cutdown wellies! lol) and feel amazing.

True Linkswear are the most comfortable shoe, golf or otherwise, I've ever worn. Like playing golf in your house slippers.

Ping i15 8* Diamana Whiteboard

can anyone vouch for their longterm durability? my shoes were just stolen out of the back of my car, and for the last few months i have obsessed over Trues. just wondering if they hold up well (and if anyone can compare their durability to the likes of the ecco spikeless shoes, that would also be great).

not really sure what you want to know. I was going to get the eccos' but ran across these at pro shop at a golf tourney I was in, bought them, laced them up, and have been in love ever since. comfortable, stable, I have flat feet so it's always tough to find golf shoes that don't kill my feet. these will he the only ones I get from now on.

+1 on the Ecco street premiere. Easily the most comfy shoe I've ever worn. Living in the SF bay area, walking most courses requires lots of elevation chagne, sidehills, etc. I've now walked 3 rounds with the Eccos with absolutely no problems.

I too think the ECCO Street is the most comfortable golf shoe I have ever worn, but I have had problems with blisters on my heel.  I walked in them a couple of rounds with no problems, but then walked a couple of rounds and got blisters.  I have since worn them numerous times when I am riding and have had no problems.

I've only had mine a few months, playing them every Sunday, with an occasional Saturday, wife permitting. I switch between two pairs, and have noticed no appreciable wear to this point. Sorry I can't be of more help.

I have wide feet so it's always been difficult to find shoes. In fact, the following are not just the most comfortable golf shoes I've worn, they are the only golf shoes I've tried on that weren't *un*comfortable (and I've tried those Eccos everyone else seems to like):

Adidas Tour 360 4.0 (stylish look, fully waterproof): http://www.scorelow.com/item--Adidas-Tour-360-4-0-Golf-Shoes-Black--ADITOUR3604BLK.html

Nike-Air Range WP (sneaker-type look and feel, also waterproof but the white sole would probably get muddy quick): http://www.scorelow.com/item--Nike-Air-Range-WP-Golf-Shoes-2011-Dark-Grey--NIKEAIRRANGEGREY.html

Footjoy Greenjoy sandals (ultimate in comfort): http://www.footjoy.com/catalog/productview.asp?c=18

(Note that the Air Ranges are extremely popular and can be hard to find in stock.)

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      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.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By mdl · Posted

      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?
