1. Adidas Tech Response

Notable review: “Love, love, love these shoes. I’ve been golfing 38 years and have gone through more than a few golf shoes. These shoes, by far, are the most comfortable yet! Easy on/off too. They are light and the grip is just right. I’m very pleased with these shoes and I expect they’ll wear well. I do not expect them to be waterproof but I haven’t experience any issues playing in morning dew. I convinced you’ll be pleased if you get these shoes.”

Get it from Amazon for $139.

2. FootJoy Flex

Notable review: “I got this shoe after much review. Some people claimed the FJ shoes weren’t water resistant like they claimed. I can tell you my first trip out was after an inch of rain so water and mud were plentiful and my feet stayed dry for 18 holes. The shoe is also very comfortable, offers good traction for not having the traditional cleats and maybe the best feature of all is its easy to clean for a white sole shoe.”

Get it from Amazon for $175.

3. FootJoy FJ Originals

Notable review: “I had a pair of these shoes for 20 years. I didn’t want a new pair but they were showing wear. The new ones are a perfect match and fit . If they last half as long as my last ones they are a great deal.”

Get it from Amazon for $89

4. Skechers Go Torque

Notable review: “I now own two pair of these shoes. A white and a black pair. They have kept my feet dry for two years and still look very good. The white is tough to keep clean and does show the wear, but the black ones look like new. Very comfortable shoes and give me a solid base when I swing. I don’t play down the middle of the course, so these shoes have seen creek beds, woods, sand and just about every terrain you can find on or around a golf course. Still have held up very well.”

Get it from Amazon for $81

5. FootJoy Traditions

Notable review: I’ve been hoping for a traditional-looking, all-leather spiked shoe from FJ that’s under $200 for a long time. And they went WAY under that. Great price. I’ve really enjoyed the Superlites and the Pro S/L, but wanted a spiked shoe that was…well…just exactly like these!

Get it from Amazon for $139.99

6. FootJoy Women’s FL Leisure

Notable review: “FootJoy has always made a great golf shoe, and the Women’s Fj Leisure Slip-on is no exception. My wife loves that it is a slip-on shoe requiring no tying of laces. The shoes do come with laces, but they are more for aesthetics than for function. The shoes are light, comfortable, and look sharp. They provide nice traction, and protect her feet from the wetness on the course. We picked these up at a really good price, making this purchase a no-brainer. Pick some up for yourself (or your wife), you will not be disappointed.”

Get it from Amazon for $39

7. FootJoy

Notable review: “he Golf Sneaker provides a roomy toe box but fits nice and snug in the heel region. It is light and soft and the waterproof promise has turned out to be exactly true. This shoe is really good for people with custom orthotics because it has the depth to accept them as well as my carbon fibre spring plates. Terrific shoe.”

Get it from Amazon for $99

8. Adidas S2g

Notable review: “These are by far the most comfortable golf shoes I’ve ever owned, and possibly the most comfortable shoes of any kind that I currently own. The fit is perfect, and I love that they are so lightweight. I sometimes buy wide shoes because some designs are too narrow, but I got the standard width and it is perfect. I was unsure how I would like a spikeless design, but stability and traction were great. Combined with the amazing comfort, I will never go back to spikes. Once you try these, neither will you.”

Get it from Amazon for $99

9. FootJoy eComfort

Notable review: “Tried these out over the weekend, and really love them. They are super comfortable.. Got them pretty muddy, and it just washed right off. I normally wear an 11, but had to go with an 11 wide.”

Get it from Amazon for $80

10. FootJoy Superlites SP

Notable review: “I purchased these shoes as a gift for my husband. He absolutely loved them! I went 1/2 size bigger than his regular shoe size because he has wide feet, it was a great decision since they fit him perfectly. After the first round of golf I asked how the shoes were, he just told me he wished they made this same model on regular shoes, because he would buy them in all colors.”

Get it from Amazon for $79

11. Skechers Go Max

Notable review: “These golf shoes fit perfectly and are what you would expect from Sketchers-comfort! I’ve worn them for about six rounds now and have no complaints. Good quality and a good grip from the small spikes in the sole. I would buy again.”

Get it from Amazon for $65

12. New Balance Striker V2

Notable review: “Great fitting golf show. Have used for several rounds of golf – both walking and on a cart. When walking the shoes feel great and have no issues after 18 holes. I wear a size 14 wide and these fit as expected.”

Why Rory McIlroy will likely use the new TaylorMade BRNR Mini Driver Copper at the RBC Heritage

Published

Andrew Tursky

Although we spotted Rory McIlroy testing the new TaylorMade BRNR Mini Driver Copper last week during practice rounds at the Masters, he ultimately didn’t decide to use the club in competition.

It seems that will change this week at the 2024 RBC Heritage, played at the short-and-tight Harbour Town Golf Links in Hilton Head.

When asked on Wednesday following his morning Pro-Am if he’d be using the new, nostalgic BRNR Copper this week, McIlroy said, “I think so.”

“I like it,” McIlroy told GolfWRX.com on Tuesday regarding the BRNR. “This would be a good week for it.”

A post shared by GolfWRX (@golfwrx)

According to Adrian Rietveld, the Senior Manager of Tour at TaylorMade, the BRNR Mini Driver can help McIlroy position himself properly off the tee at the tight layout.

Here’s what Rietveld told GolfWRX.com on Wednesday:

“For someone like Rory, who’s that long at the top end of the bag, and then you put him on a course like Harbour Town, it’s tough off the tee. It’s tight into the greens, and you have to put yourself in position off the tee to have a shot into the green. It kind of reminds me of Valderrama in Spain, where you can be in the fairway and have no shot into the green.

“I’m caddying for Tommy [Fleetwood] this week, so I was walking the course last night and looking at a few things. There’s just such a small margin for error. You can be standing in the fairway at 300 yards and have a shot, but at 320 you don’t. So if you don’t hit a perfect shot, you could be stuck behind a tree. And then if you’re back at 280, it might be a really tough shot into the small greens.

“So for Rory [with the BRNR], it’s a nice course-specific golf club for him. He’s got both shots with it; he can move it right-to-left or left-to-right. And the main thing about this club has been the accuracy and the dispersion with it. I mean, it’s been amazing for Tommy.

“This was the first event Tommy used a BRNR last year, and I remember talking to him about it, and he said he couldn’t wait to play it at Augusta next year. And he just never took it out of the bag because he’s so comfortable with it, and hitting it off the deck.

“So you look at Rory, and you want to have the tools working to your advantage out here, and the driver could hand-cuff him a bit with all of the shots you’d have to manufacture.”

So, although McIlroy might not be making a permanent switch into the new TaylorMade BRNR Mini Driver Copper, he’s likely to switch into it this week.

His version is lofted at 13.5 degrees, and equipped with a Fujikura Ventus Black 7X shaft.

Spotted: TaylorMade P-UDI driving iron

Published

Brian Knudson

It seems like the RBC Heritage is full of new gear to be spotted, and you can add TaylorMade’s P-UDI utility irons to that list.

We spotted a 17-degree P-UDI 2-iron in Nick Dunlap’s bag yesterday, and now have some photos of both the 3- and 4-irons. Nick has his P-UDI 2-iron setup with a Project X HZRDUS Black 4th Gen 105g TX shaft.

From what we can tell, this new P-UDI utility iron looks to have some of the usual TaylorMade technology as we can see the Speed Slot on the sole of the club for additional face flexibility. A toe screw is usually used to close off the hollow body design that will probably be filled with a version of TaylorMade’s Speed Foam that is present in the current iron lineup. This hollow body, foam-filled design should offer additional ball speed, soft feel, and sound, as well as an optimized CG for ball flight.

“Forged” is etched into the hosel, so we can assume that either the face, body, or both are forged for a soft and responsive feel. The club looks good from behind and at address, where we can see just a little offset and a topline that I would consider medium thickness. We don’t have the full details on what is under the hood or how many loft options will be available yet.

TaylorMade P-UDI 3-iron – 20°

TaylorMade P-UDI 4-iron – 22°
