Which ones do you have? I've had my eye on them for a while, they snagged me on an instagram ad a few years ago, but I've heard that they're pretty sweaty shoes. I've got pretty sweaty feet, so pair those two up and that's no bueno.

I have the originals which sounds like wouldn’t be breathable enough for your liking, and the knits. They are very breathable and really comfortable. I wear they like normal shoes sometimes since the sole isn’t very aggressive.

@Daddy The true knit II is the updated original. I put a link in my post above. Great shoe!

Had to take advantage of the weather and get out for a round yesterday. 83 at Benson with a 7 and 8 on the front 9. I’ll take it

I am not. There is snow everywhere.

I haven’t been able to finish a round at Benson yet. It plays so fucking slow that I always make it through 16, see two groups standing on 17 tee box, realize I’ve already been there for over 4 hours and leave.

I’ve had similar experiences there. Back 9 seems to have more holes where you can lose balls, so maybe people spend too much time looking and hold things up

Sold my set of clubs today. Got 10 years out of those babies that I got on the cheap thanks to a Dick's employee only code shared on tMB.

Got fitted awhile back, wanted to get it done for awhile now, just never got around to it. Going to order my new irons tonight. Question for some of the more seasoned golfers @lee_carvallo_12 Thoughts on hard-stepping? At the fitting they recommended X-stiff shaft and said I could also hard-step my irons as well to help bring the ball down. Basically, I hit moon shots, like 150 foot apex with a 7 iron.

Need to learn how to cover a golf ball- hard step probably won’t help much imho.

That's why I'm leaning towards not doing it.

What irons you getting?

Fwiw I do the same thing-positive swing path and flip it.

Don’t forget that I met @God is a Husker via golf in high school. Probably my most enjoyable/funniest tournament I ever played.

Hogan PtxPros is what I ended on. Tried them out last year and loved them. Thought hard about getting the t200s. But I’m basically replacing my whole bag and the cost started to get too steep for my poor ass
