In our forums, not everything is about club selection and shaft options. A heated debate has bubbled up surrounding the best sock options players can wear on the course.
@CletePurcel asked:
“Just bought 2 new pairs of FootJoy shoes and trying to find out the most favorable socks to wear. I try to walk 9 holes two to three times a week and good socks are a must. Thanks in advance.
Members in the forum chimed in with their favorite footwear accessories. Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.
- Maroon_19: “I’ve only worn Kentwool socks for golf for the last 8 years – regardless of weather. I walk 90% of my rounds and play anywhere from 50-75 rounds a year (going to go up as I just retired). They only get worn for golf. As long as you care for them, they’ll care for you. Have had zero blisters with them. I just started using my second set of 8 pair for our Bandon trip earlier this month. The old ones will now go into the daily wear rotation. Still good after all these years.”
- smoova: “I’ve had good luck with Swiftwick. Walk every round 12 months a year in Colorado.”
- Hawkeye77: “FJ Pro ProDry is what I’m usually wearing just because I have more of them, but I’ve got some Smartwool socks I love for the wool aspect – they sell them as running socks. The thicker socks are better for certain shoes. I’ve gone merino/other wool in almost all my socks – athletic, “dress” and so forth – no more “Orlon”, lol, some golf socks are the exception.”
- th6252: “Another vote for Kentwool, honorable mentions to Balega and Falke(thanks to someone on this forum for turning me onto the RU3).”

Though I’m a huge Titleist supporter and it’s sad to see him go, I think this is a good move forward Rickie. He is sort of a brand pioneer; has been for Puma and will be for Cobra. He’s going to bring masses of people over to Cobra golf, which that brand has needed for a while.
I don’t think the switch will hurt his game at all because they practically built his Titleist blades with a Cobra logo on them, so the change shouldn’t be too significant. And he’s still putting with the Scotty and hit the Vokey’s, so he’s feeling pretty comfortable from what I gather.
All in all, sad to see Rickie leave TItleist, but proud of his courage in making his own path.
…and finding a brand that will let him put orange on everything. It’s getting to be a little much, just saying.
