Rick Shiels went to a Under Armor facility and they had him hit on some pressure plates. I find it interesting the Under Armor guy said that Tour players start with 50/50 toe to heel weight distribution. Then the weight shifts towards the heel in the back foot and towards the toe in the lead foot into the backswing as the hips rotate. So they actually fit the shoes to the golfer to help correct weight transfer. 

What Rick was suffering from reminded me of this good video ;)

Also, it's one of the reason why I wear True shoes. With the zero drop from heel to toe it allows me to get my weight distributed correctly. If you have a big heel to toe drop that just means you have to sit back more on your heels to get that 50/50 distribution. 

Kinda cool how much technology now is going even into shoe design.

      Day 5 - 2024-10-05 Hit some somewhat soft pitching wedges. The outside and inside, particularly the outside of the left thumb where my right hand goes on it, is still pretty sore. I don't think I'll do more damage, but I'm reluctant to do too much because I don't want to compensate or alter my motion.

      Day 156 (05 Sep 24) - Played new to me course today, it’s near our beach place and have been wanting to play it for a couple of years now.  It’s a neat Par 70 that plays just over 6k from the tips, played the whites 5,500 +/-.  Tight fairways and severely undulating greens made for some great shot strategy.  Wound up with an even 80 that included two lost ball penalties.  Putter was solid - 28 total.  Wedge play kept the pars happening - 6 of the 9 pars were up and downs.  Not bad for the first time on a new course.
