As many of you already know, I've been a big proponent of True Linkswear shoes for awhile now, and while I'm still a fan, due to the lack of support I've had a little discomfort lately, specifically in the right toe area at the end of my swings.  I decided I wanted to go back and try some more "traditional" shoes again.  I've always been a fan of Ecco - I've had their golf shoes in the past and my casual work shoes I wear nearly every day are Eccos as well.

So I decided to give these a try.  I just got them today, so I have nothing to report as far as their on-course function, but I like the feel so far.  Per my usual, there will be a breaking in period where I'll have to wear moleskin on my heels for a few rounds, but I am optimistic now.  Here are a couple of photos of them new:

Gotta get some white laces so I can wear them with something other than blue shirts.

One at a time apparently, since they're big files.

Joined you, Bro! :-)

Big toe issues had me go to Ecco about a year ago. Guess I could have placed a thicker insert into the True but that defeats the purpose a bit - depends if a thin one works.

Went with Hybrid 2 and Hybrid 2 GTX - the GoreTex works. Was caught in the rain for aboot 30 minutes. Very comfortable.

Good luck with them!

If your right toe hurts, your swing is leaving too much weight back. ;-)

    • Going to a Friendsgiving tomorrow and I am bringing a no-bake cheesecake. I make the crust too big, but I think it turned out good. The filling is really good. 
    • Sure, but how was your alignment? 🙂 Day 53 - 2024-11-22 Mirror work after getting back home. Wife is a superstar for her career/job/whatever.
    • I would say your back nine is the second nine you play that day. It's part of what makes getting some of those holes tougher. Or, if 18 holes are played pretty often, out of A, B, and C, and you often play A and C, A is the front and C is the back, regardless of the order you play them in. That way not birdieing C #7 isn't overcome by birdieing the easier A #7 on a day you played it C-A instead of A-C. But, at the end of the day, nobody really cares except yourself.
    • Day 128: played 9. Nice little even 9, with 2 birdies and 2 bogeys. 
    • @DeadMan, I think your approach makes sense. As @dennyjones said, consistency is the key.
