I have the DryJoys but I haven't had a chance to wear them yet since I live in Illinois. These are my first ever pair of golf shoes since I'm just getting into golf.

It stinks to have a December Birthday and get golfing stuff

I like the look of the saddle shoes. I know kinda traditional. Can't stand the look of the tennis shoes. I am by no streatch a traditionalist when it comes to clubs however CB hybrid and 460 cc driver all the way lol so I guess I am a contradiction. If you wear the tennis shoes do you notice that big a diffrence when walking? I wear saddle and walk all the time, mabe I am missing out huh?

I just bought a pair of last year's model of the Footjoy Gel FusionII, white on white saddle, from TGW. They were offering them with shipping for about $106. Even though I had never bought anything from them, I pulled the trigger because I thought that price represented a good buy. I received them promptly, I 've worn them and I like them.

I have a two year old pair of Gel Fusion saddles and a four year old pair of Dryjoys. I prefer the Gel Fusions.

I have worn only FJ shoes... I began wearing Dryjoys in high school and thats the only FJ shoe I wore playing in college.

Since turning professional, I was lucky enough to become a FJ staff member. I will wear Classics and Classic Dry Premiere mostly. IMO the Dryjoy is the best all around shoe they offer.

Currently I have turned to Adidas 360 II and Powerband. The Powerband fit my feet like Adidas running shoes. They could be the most comfortable golf shoes I've worn...

    • That was a good watch. When I started working on pelvis in the backswing. I thought, this sounds contradictory to those leg straightening threads on the site. Erik has already done a correction. Then the last lesson we went more down the route of feeling the right knee gains flex. It doesn’t, but the feeling keeps my knee position in a good range. Also, I just realized how much extra work my right hip needed to do to stabilize the body with the proper weight shift. Those glute and hip stabilizers got worked. 🤣 I wish this evolution in the golf instruction happened 20 years ago! 😭
    • I've been Playing Golf for: 40 yrs My current handicap index or average score is: 4.0 factor My typical ball flight is: Straight however sometimes slight draw. The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: squirt to the right due to to much arm not enough turn.

    • The first issue Erik spoke about is something we worked on for my swing during both GEARS sessions. GEARS was showing my pelvis center moving towards the ball during the back swing. I wasn’t the 4” guy though! This forced me to correct on the downswing to give myself space. My hip rotation was to high as well. We corrected it by first getting the weight off my heels in my stance and getting my posture correct. Then the feel was shifting back into my right hip at a 45 degree angle. This kept my pelvis center from moving towards the ball at the start of the backswing. I also didn’t sway back as much as I felt I did because of the angle I was shifting. Feel Ain’t Real. The cool thing about GEARS is as you work on something you can see the exact (Real) change happening. On video, it is much harder to spot this issue because of the 2D nature of filming. But I know what to look for now. Sadly, I was hurt all last year and most of this year so I really haven’t been able to work on it much. I did do a lot of backswing work though.
