What Are the Most Breathable Golf Shoes?
Golf is best experienced on a bright and sunny day outdoors. However, if you are interested in the sport, you will need to get used to the idea that you will most likely be undergoing periods of intense heat and humidity, especially if you will be playing in a state like Florida. In fact, one of the top considerations of someone interested in golf is how to stay cool in the heat. In the following blog, Deer Creek Golf Club will detail some of the most breathable golf shoes available for golfers. Continue reading below for more.
Breathability Makes the Most Comfortable Golf Shoes
One of the areas of the human body that undergoes the most stress during hot days is the feet. There is nothing quite as uncomfortable as walking around a golf course with a pair of suffocating footwear. Breathable golf shoes allow players to enjoy lightweight and comfortable shoes so they can stay as cool as possible.
Breathable shoes are usually made of more lightweight materials like mesh. This allows your foot to stay as dry as possible, even during the hottest and humid summer days. So, with this understanding of the advantages of breathable golf shoes, we will delve deeper into what the most breathable golf shoes are.
What Are the Most Breathable and Most Comfortable Golf Shoes?
There are many different kinds of breathable and comfortable golf shoes. Deer Creek takes a closer look below.
Ecco Biom C4 Shoe
This shoe is especially attractive to golfers because it boasts cutting-edge technology. This is reflected in their grip, style, and breathability. Aside from being extremely comfortable, the Ecco Biom C4 shoe is extremely stylish because of its sneaker-inspired design, which gives it a more athletic look. The modern technology that it uses helps keep golfers cool.
New Balance Fresh Foam Pace Sl Golf Shoe
If there is one brand that is recognized for having a great blend of athletic and comfortable shoes, it is New Balance. This is also a unique breathable golf shoe because it includes a waterproof mesh that is used in the upper section of the shoe. These are also extremely light since they only weigh about 11 ounces. Many people flock to New Balance because of their large selection of wide and extra wide widths, and their golf shoes are no exception. These are among the best golf shoes for those looking for swing support and comfortable wear that lasts the entire round.

How to Find the Best Holiday Gifts for Golfers
What should you buy the golfer in your life this holiday season? If you know next to nothing about golf, but you want to impress that special golf fanatic in your life, whether it be your significant other or your boss, Deer Creek Golf Club’s Pro Golf Store can teach you how to find the best holiday gifts for golfers.
Step 1 – Reconnaissance
Put your spy cap on and be ready to snap a couple pictures. Scout out where the golfer keeps his or her golf equipment: bag, clubs, shoes and shirts, etc. Snap pics of everything you can and make a catalogue of everything you have found because you can use all of this information to take to your pro golf store so they can help you find the best gifts for golfers based on what the golfer already has and is missing.
Step 2 – Advice
Head over to your local golf pro shop, show them your photos, and ask for recommendations. Give more details about the golfer, age, height, golfing ability (if you know), and they can help you choose the perfect gift.
Step 3 – Shop Around
Don’t just settle for what an associate in the golf pro store recommends and has on the shelves as specials. Make a list of all the holiday gifts for golfers that you have been recommended and then ask a friend; bonus points if you can speak to a golfing buddy. Golfing equipment can be very expensive, so before you spend a fortune, make sure that you are getting your special golfer exactly what they need and want.
Step 4 – Reap the Rewards
After following all of the above, congratulations, you have bought a gift that your golfer will remember forever!

Golf Pro Shop Must Haves
There is nothing like walking into a well-kept and fully stocked golf pro shop first thing in the morning, right before tee time. Simply nothing like it. If you happen to find yourself in the golf pro shop in Deerfield Beach, that is the one at the Deer Creek Golf Club, we are here to tell you what golf pro shop must haves you need to pick up.
Did we mention that the Deer Creek Golf Pro Shop is open to all? No membership is required to shop here and talk to our professionals.
When you pull your car up to the Deer Creek Golf Club valet, you will notice the golf pro shop is front and center. Our professional golfing staff knows how it can ruin your day if you forget to pack one item in your golf bag. So for any last-minute purchases or new golf players, here are a few of our choices for golf pro shop must haves:
When You Arrive at Deer Creek
Arrive early before tee off? Grab a bucket of golf balls for $6.00 (roughly 35 balls), or two buckets for $9.00. Use this time to get a few practice swings in and shake off the rust before the round. You can also pick up a sleeve of golf balls that are the cheapest of any other golf pro shop in Deerfield Beach.
Ask one of our pros about golf club fittings if you are new to the game, need to rent some clubs, or are simply in the market for new clubs.
Finally, be sure to get a handful of free golf ball tees, the most often forgotten golf pro shop must-have.
On the Back Nine
Stop back in for a cool drink and maybe a quick bite to eat at the snack bar before you head out onto the course again.
After the Round
Did you lose any balls in the rough? Before you leave, stock back up on golf balls and tees, and be sure to check out our selection of professional golf attire.

A Golfer’s Guide for Choosing the Right Putter
“It’s a marriage. If I had to choose between my wife and my putter, well, I’d miss her.” Gary Player.
Leave it to a legend like Gary Player to summarize the importance of a good putter with a little wit and character. Choosing the right putter is a vital part of the game of golf. Selecting the right wood to play on a golf course in South Florida might differ from a wood that you may use on any other course, but you will use your putter on every course, regardless.
Finding the best putter will drastically improve or hinder your game. Here are a few tips to consider while you are on the hunt at local golf pro shops for the right putter.
How’s It Hanging?
Length is extremely important when choosing the right putter. Ideally, the putter should hang directly down, so that your eye is directly over the ball while the putter is just off of the ground. Spend time at the golf pro shop testing out putters before visiting your favorite golf course in South Florida.
Balance is Key
When you putt, you are using momentum to push the ball. Choosing the right putter with the best balance for your stroke style will make a huge difference when the putter connects with the ball and the momentum pushes the ball forward.
– Toe balance putters are the right choice for about 90% of golfers who have a traditional stroke.
– Face balance is best suited for golfers who use a straight-back-and-through stroke.
If you are not sure which golf stroke is best for you, consider going to a golf school in South Florida and speaking to an instructor.
Try Them Before You Buy Them
Be sure to really test out your putter at the pro shop before you take it out to your local golf course in South Florida.
