Question: Golf height differnential?

(Posted by: TheBagel on 2010-07-31 10:00:25)

When i am playing golf, sometimes with my jordans and sometimes with my running shoes. My Jordan's are high top and pretty big maybe give me around 2 inches more on my hieght i dont know. But when i do i hit my irons great and i drive straight. But when i use my Running Shoes i hit my irons horribley and i Slice my Driver like crazy. Im going to get some FJ golf shoes today and i was wondering if it will be the same as my running shoes or going to be as good as my Basketball Shoes. Please Reply. Thanks

Honestly they probably fall somewhere in between. The best would be to take both pair of shoes with you when you go to the store. If the FJs are a bit shorter than your Jordans maybe you can put some inserts into the to equalize the height.

I have the same problem when I play basketball in my golf spikes! Seriously, check out the FJ Sports or the FJ Superlights. Don't worry so much about the sole height. You'll get used to whatever shoes you get if you don't keep switching back and forth between shoes.

The problem may that the clubs are a little too long. You should get yourself fitted with the golf shoes.

Choke down on your clubs and get nike golf shoes

Seriously? Get your momma to measure you in both pair, and then ask the salesperson in the store to do the same when trying on different pairs.
