If the Seven Pairs of Shoes Fit, Wear Them

I built up quite a large amount of prize money at my city course, a large chunk due to my best finish in the Salt Lake Amateur (2nd).

My first world problem was having to spend about $1,400 in the pro shop before the season ends.  That may seem like an easy task for an average golfer.  I’m not an average golfer.  Because of my golf websites and connections, I have every golf club, golf apparel item, golf accessory, and golf product known to man.  I can’t go to the bathroom at 3 a.m. without tripping over some kind of swing training device.  That last thing in the world I want to do is spend $1,400 on golf stuff.

So the task was to find a way of spending $1,400 without buying anything golf related.  Tough to do when the only place you can shop is the pro shop at the local city course.  Once I realized the course was an Ecco dealer, I asked the pro if the shop could get Ecco street shoes, not golf shoes.  He had never ordered them before, but checked with the rep and sure enough he could order any Ecco shoe which was available.

BINGO

I ordered SEVEN pairs of Eccos.  Some are standard street shoes.  Some skate shoes.  I even got some unbelievable hiking boots.  The lovely lady even benefited by receiving a pair of lady lightweight shoes and a set of amazing hiking boots.

If the 7 pairs of shoes fit, wear them

I’m going to be set in the street shoe department for a while.

The good news?  I don’t have the exact number, but I think I’ll still have $300-$400 left to spend.  I wonder if they deal in Kentwool socks…
