@Blueberry_Squishie, have you deliberately tried to reinforce that you’re in Australia by posting the photos upside down?😅

Good work on the intros team

I am not.  I am using a Odyssey 2 ball with a  steel shaft.  I am obviously very interested in the graphite shaft but also their hosel compared to the odyssey.  Looking forward to getting to the next steps and getting out to the course!

I just had the same problem, perhaps message @GolfSpy_APH or post something in the suggestion box

Just making sure the Northern Hemispherians can understand.

Enjoy the test everyone, just a little tip, check the micro target tab is out before you get frustrated at not being able to get the ball to rest in it. Someone may have done that in the earlier model review 😂

Played 36 on a beautiful day here in Philadelphia. First really warm round of golf that I’ve played this calendar year. Needed multiple rounds of both water and sunscreen because of the amount of sweating that was going on. 🙂 
Screenshot below of my morning round (plus about 3/4 of a mile before I played) to give you an indication of how much stress I put on these bad boys. 


Rode the second 18 because of the heat and time, and added another nearly 1.5 miles to them (see below for why so little). 
 
Also this was the first round where I had my Superfeet insoles in the shoes. I tried them on TOP of the current insoles to see how they would work out. A couple other pair of shoes that I have, this ends up being nearly the perfect fit. Notes below on my thoughts of the shoes and how they held up. 
 
Good AND bad results with the Superfeet on top of the other insoles. Even though the standard insoles are very thin, end very spongy, this created all sorts of challenges: First of all, the good was that by elevating my foot in the shoe, the squeaking/popping noise that I had heard since I first put these on went away in my left shoe (my left foot is a half size smaller). Bad news was that by elevating my feet that much in the shoe, I started to get some rubbing in the back of my ankle in the Achilles area. Not a full blister, but it was headed that way. Secondly, the bad was that for my right foot, I DID have enough rubbing that I got a bunch of small blisters and ultimately I had to take the Inesis insoles out of the shoes by the time I got to hole number 7.
So for the next six holes, I went with just my Superfeet. These insoles have been AMAZING for me. I had some lower back pain previously when I would walk full rounds, and those insoles have saved me. However, in these shoes, they didn’t seem to help. For whatever reason, with the way these shoes fit my feet, and the way that I walk with them, my lower back pain returned. I also was a little dehydrated, but my back hasn’t hurt like this in a long time while playing and walking. I had checked to ensure that the insoles fit, they weren’t slipping around, etc.  For the final 5-6 holes I took out the Superfeet insoles and went with the standard insoles wanting to see if that made a difference or not. It didn’t help. End of the round, pretty decent amount of lower back pain and I’m starting to think that for my physiology, these shoes are just not a good match. 
  For reference, on the final 18, even though I was riding, I switched to a different pair of Nike Roshe Tours (with the Superfeet insoles) and my back felt better almost immediately. I’m sure some of this was due in part to me riding, but also these just being a much better fit for me and my body. 
 
To help confirm or deny what I was experiencing, for the final 6 holes while riding I put the Inesis back on. And yup, by hole 14 my back was starting to get sore yet again. 
 
At this point, if you are someone who has a pretty “tall” foot, I would highly recommend these shoes. If you are someone with a pretty short or maybe flat foot, these might not be the best for you as they are not the best for me. 

Morning viewers and welcome to my first thoughts on the Inesis Waterproof shoes.

Initially we were told to go to the website: https://www.decathlon.com/collections/all-golf-shoes/products/mens-golf-shoes-waterproof-grip? and choose 2 different colours, one primary and one secondary and size. I chose Midnight Blue for my primary and Snowy White for my secondary. These shoes apparently tend to run small and I normally wear a US10.5, so I chose US11.5. If you look at the website, the available sizes are to me, are a bit odd. Some there are no half sizes and others there are no full sizes.

Anyway, we sent our requests in and the wait started...and we waited and waited. That was fine considering the issues of supply and demand the golf industry is having at the moment. And then...

The day arrived. I got a box unlike some of the others, my shoes were delivered in an actual box, rather than a plastic bag.



I was hoping to get the Midnight Blue but obviously they're still not available so I was given the Snowy White in a US11.5.



They looked pretty smart and the tread looked a lot different than my Puma Grip Fusions that I usually wear.





I walk 95% of my rounds so I think these will get a good work out. I've played 3 rounds in them so far and the grip is great, but the lack of sizing is a concern. If Decathlon could bring out more size options that would be fantastic. As I mentioned, I usually wear a 10.5 but these running small I got an 11.5 which are about a half inch too long. If I had an 11, they be perfect.

I took this photo after 9 holes the first time I wore them. We'd had some rain and my feet remained dry even when I purposely stood in a puddle of water next to the 4th tee.



I want to get a few more rounds in before I give a final verdict but so far so good.

@jlukes.........searches cobra demo days 2021.  Missed the one that was local unfortunately while still rehabbing.  Plenty of great fitters in the area if I'm lucky enough to be chosen.

I’m booking a lesson later this week, with e really experienced fitter. If the timing is right I would happily change from lesson to fitting if need be. 😁 I miss the Cobra demo day he is hosting by a day as I’m flying home on Saturday when it’s on. Regardless of the Cobra Connect 5 outcome I would have loved to have tried the Cobra gear out in one sitting (perhaps that should be one swinging)
