I don't have the Sport, but I do have the Contour Casual, they are by far my favorite shoe of all time.  I'm a huge fan of the spikeless shoe, I have 3 different brands of spikeless, I hope that spikeless isn't a trend, because I have no intention of wearing anything for golfing but spikeless from now on.

I like nike's spikeles shoes, very comfortable. To me the footjoys spikeless are a bit to wide for me, and just don't fit well.

I've got the fj sport. Not sure what you mean about the spikeless version...the ones I have use soft spikes and a traction sole. They wear great and have superb traction. If you pay attention to tour golf you'll see that most of the footjoy guys on tour wear the Sports. I have the version without laces; the concept is really

The concept is cool and it provides the best possible fit because you can fine tune tightness and the lace tightness is perfectly distributed over the top of the foot. Only problem is the button on the back that tightens and releases the laces pops open if you knock it on something. Happens once or twice per round and you just have to re-tighten which takes 5 seconds.

I have a pair of them and I love them. Super comfortable and light.   I can walk around casual with them or they have plenty of grip to golf in.

I also have the contour casuals which are great as well.  Now that i think of it I have a ton of FJ shoes.

For sure worth the purchase.

I tried the contour casuals a few times, and ended up going with the Ecco Streets.  Just more comfortable and natural feeling.  The FJ's felt like they had a soft, mushy pillow on top of a rock bed; the pillow wasn't much comfort after a few steps.

The trouble with the Ecco line of spineless shoes is that they don't offer wide widths which I need. They are based in Europe and still have that European mentality that Americans don't have wide feet. If they offered wide widths they could be making even more money, but stupidity reigns.

If you want spikeless and are looking for a "wider" shoe you really need to check out the ones made by TRUE linkswear. Awesome shoes, by far the most comfortable around. The new model (the sensei) is amazing, I've got two pairs of them and at $99, they are a great value. The phx model is also really good and is also $99. If you are looking for a more traditional look, the tour or stealth models might be more of what you are looking for and they run for $150 and $200 respectively. However, on rockbottomgolf.com you can get a really good deal on the tours (I think they are $69). TRUE doesn't make wide widths per say but they are built with a wider toe box to allow the foot to function naturally, and from feedback both on this site and other places, individuals with wide feet have had nothing but good things to say about them.

      Strategy on Neshanic Valley Ridge #2

      By p1n9183 ·

      Last year I made an excel that can easily measure with my own SG data the average score for each club of the tee. Even the difference in score if you aim more left or right with the same club. I like it because it can be tweaked to account for different kind of rough, trees, hazards, greens etc.     As an example, On Par 5's that you have fescue on both sides were you can count them as a water hazard (penalty or punch out sideways), unless 3 wood or hybrid lands in a wider area between the fescue you should always hit driver. With a shorter club you are going to hit a couple less balls in the fescue than driver but you are not going to offset the fact that 100% of the shots are going to be played 30 or more yards longer. Here is a 560 par 5. Driver distance 280 yards total, 3 wood 250, hybrid 220. Distance between fescue is 30 yards (pretty tight). Dispersion for Driver is 62 yards. 56 for 3 wood and 49 for hybrid. Aiming of course at the middle of the fairway (20 yards wide) with driver you are going to hit 34% of balls on the fescue (17% left/17% right). 48% to the fairway and the rest to the rough.  The average score is going to be around 5.14. Looking at the result with 3 wood and hybrid you are going to hit less balls in the fescue but because of having longer 2nd shots you are going to score slightly worst. 5.17 and 5.25 respectively.    Things changes when the fescue is taller and you are probably going to loose the ball so changing the penalty of hitting there playing a 3 wood or hybrid gives a better score in the hole.  Off course 30 yards between penalty hazards is way to small. You normally have 60 or more, in that cases the score is going to be more close to 5 and been the Driver the weapon of choice.  The point is to see that no matter how tight the hole is, depending on the hole sometimes Driver is the play and sometimes 6 irons is the play. Is easy to see that on easy holes, but holes like this:  you need to crunch the numbers to find the best strategy.

      Is This Club Blatantly Sandbagging?

      By Ty_Webb ·

      Very much so. I think the intimidation factor that a lot of people feel playing against someone who's actually very good is significant. I know that Winged Foot pride themselves on the strength of the club. I think they have something like 40-50 players who are plus something. Club championships there are pretty competitive. Can't imagine Oakmont isn't similar. The more I think about this, the more likely it seems that this club is legit. Winning also breeds confidence and I'm sure the other clubs when they play this one are expecting to lose - that can easily become a self-fulfilling prophecy.

      Ah ok I misunderstood. But you did bring to light an oversight on my part.
