THE OFFICIAL NIKE GOLF THREAD VOL "WINNING FIXES EVERYTHING."

[nyc757]

It's a hard game, stay patient. Practice as much as you can. 70% short game 30% long game.

Keep things simple as much as you can, the basics are important so don't worry about fancy technical swing advice.

Let things come to you on the course, don't try to force anything or stress about having a bad hole here and there.

This. even tho hitting the ball 300 does feel good, even if its in the other fairway

Rory rocking some AM90 in the players...and joggers too

^ Those Flyknit Mercurial/Lunarepic-esque shoes look interesting.

NYC, any idea on a release date for the Chukkas with the MC Racers weave? We saw pics of those leaked with the OG blue and black colorways but I haven't heard anything since. I actually can't even find the pics anymore.

EDIT: Nevermind . Found the pics but it wasn't actually the MC Racer weave. Guess my memory was clouded.

The AM could look pretty nice on the course

Anybody caught wearing those flyknits in shorts is gonna look seriously ridiculous

I realize the whole point of some of these is to not look like a traditional golf shoe. But some of these designs are wilin'
Still...glad Nike keeps experimenting with this stuff. Maybe one day they'll have design Id go for

The shoe is called Nike Flyknit Elite 

Both cws should drop 7/1 and a Olympic inspired cw 8/4. I think the TW'14 is a pretty good golf and its probably as far as Id venture for footwear from a non-traditional look. 

I forgot another cw 

Edit: 

I totally misread your post, what shoe were you talking about these below? If so they are on ndc now.

^ Yeah those are the ones. Thanks for the info though. I'll have to check those Elites out in person.

 

[supremexheat]

Anyone the name of these? Thanks

 

[Zephyr1983]

Hmm, not familiar with those, but they are using the Nike rain-weather sole and cleat. And a boot ankle as well.
Just looks like maybe an older model without the shroud?

Also grabbed last year's Vapor Flex Driver from DSG on super discount. I've been hitting LASERS with it. Most muted sounding driver I've ever played but man is it awesome.

I'm using the old *** Method 005 Mallet from like 2009. Almost all of my friends hate it but I love it . I've been contemplating grabbing a Method Converge/Matter blade for the low though because I haven't used a blade putter in a while.

Man you just saved me $100. Bought my driver (Vapor Flex)  from DSG few months ago and they refunded me the price difference of it today. Now Im thinking of getting a new 3 wood

My current putter of choice is some DSG special I got for $50( I forget the name of it), Im a very handsy player so I prefer a really light putter and its all aluminum.  

Ive never been a fan of Nike putters, they seem to be too heavy for my liking. 

I think odyssey makes great putter that wont require you to take out a loan to buy lol. 

Also I played a blade style putter for years but now like the mallet style visually and weight wise.

That's how it always goes. Save money on one club and then just go spend it on another one .

That's good service though. Usually stores only give a few weeks of leniency for price adjustments.

How are you liking it? I've been itching to leave work a little early to play a twilight round all week. Nothing but satisfaction off the tee with it .

I "need" a new 3 wood lol 

Yeah I was slightly surprised but  it was either that or I wouldve just returned it instore and bought it again I guess. 

My daughter has swung it more than I have, I havent played at all this year. Just havent had much time. Ill probably wait until I get a new 3W, not sure I want to get the matching Vapor 3W but I like the idea of the loft adjustment. I play a driver and strong hybrid ( 2I) , so the idea of 13-17 degree seems like a good option to have depending on course setup.

I really don't like the bloated midsole Nikes been using on these crossover golf shoes. But this classic colorway might have to be copped g

Did anyone get the earlier black'n'white pairs?
Wondering how people felt about the fit/performance

 

[baik]

check your local ross/burlington..copped a pair of lunar control 3s for $19.99 @ burlington...heard some TW15 are hitting them as well with prices varying from 24.99-39.99

Check for shirts as well. I've gotten $60-$80 Nike Golf shirts for anywhere from $15-$25 over the last few months.

I'll hit a couple stores today and see. If anyone sees the TW in a 9.5 or 10 please hit me up. I'll update here today

 

[nyc757]

Grabbed these today for $50 at my clearance store.

Didn't need them but wanted to try the flyweave out.

I've heard some TWs are showing up at Ross. Not sure which model though. I always get shirts and pants/shorts from my Ross. They usually have a ton of the mid range (~$50-60) polos. Sometimes even have the high end polos.

I don't have the patience in those type of stores too much to stift thru lol.

For cheap gear I usually go to DSG or the outlet
