Last year, my friend recommended to me that I needed new golf shoes. I went to the local Sports Authority to go check out the selection of golf shoes. Let me tell you, there are over twenty brands there and tons of shoes overall. I picked out the Etonic Difference 3Z golf shoes. They happened to be one of the most expensive shoes in the store, but when I buy, I look at prices to determine the quality and for the price tag of almost two hundred dollars, I expected to get a really great pair of shoes.

It was a real upgrade from my old Nike shoes which were falling apart after only about a year or two. I got the white and black stripe pattern shoes. They are made out of one hundred percent leather. They are fully waterproof, which is great since I play in a rainy area, and when it isn't raining, I am normally near the water traps! There are three technologies that are working in this shoe at the same time.

First, is the Bi-Fit Footbed which provides ultimate comfort. Second, is the Gore Tex technology, which keeps the shoe waterproof and ultimately keeps your feet dry no matter the conditions. It also allows for foot perspiration to vaporize out of the shoe, so it keeps your foot cool as well. Lastly, the Stabilizer Technology keeps the feet solid which allows for a solid swing without your foot moving. The cleats really dig into the grass that my leg never moves on my drives or other swings.

The shoes are actually more comfortable than the regular sneakers I wear, and I wish they came out with a sneaker version of this. Actually, if you wanted, the cleats are removable, so I guess you could use this is as a sneaker. This shoe not only improved my swing, but it also improved my scores on the back nine. My feet usually always started to hurt after the ninth hole, but after wearing these Etonic golf shoes, my feet don't hurt at all during my round. I have seen my scores go down by more than a few strokes and I would have to give the credit to these shoes.

My friend, who recommended I get the new shoes, also has Etonic shoes, but the Etonic Dri-XC, which he loves as well. Overall, I would recommend these shoes as they are the best golf shoes I have ever had, and they improved my game!
