Walking the Course in Comfort: Mike Forsey on Golf Footwear Innovation at PAYNTR GOLF

Lace up your spikes and join us for an electrifying episode as we welcome Mike Forsey, Co-founder and President of PAYNTR Golf, to The Hole Story Podcast. Mike brings over three decades of footwear expertise and groundbreaking innovation to the table, sharing the inside scoop on everything from the evolution of golf shoe technology to what goes into creating the perfect blend of comfort, performance, and style on the course. We dive into PAYNTR’s game-changing “propulsion plate” technology, the relentless pursuit of a blister-free walking experience, and how PAYNTR is redefining golf footwear as essential equipment—not just an accessory. Get the backstory on PAYNTR’s rapid rise in the golf world, the science behind energy return and ground reaction forces, and what it’s really like to collaborate with PGA Tour stars like Jason Day. Mike also opens up about his earliest days in the footwear business, what it takes to compete in the crowded golf shoe market, crazy product testing stories (including high-tops and trainers for the gym), and why your feet—sockless or not—have never been so important. https://payntrgolf.com/ https://www.instagram.com/payntrgolf/ BestBall Links: https://BestBall.com https://linktr.ee/BestBall https://bestball.substack.com - Subscribe to Par 3 Thursdays!
