Blister tip

ForumsGolf Equipment | 10 posts
 

Due to socks slipping I developed blisters on the back of my heel. I recall a sports store salesman telling my wife, who constantly gets blisters from joggers, to put Vaseline on your socks. Apparently a runner tip. The Vaseline provides lubricant that stops the friction that causes, and in my case, irritates blisters.
Worked a treat so I figured I’d share. Makes for one less distraction.

Or just put a bandaid on before you get a problem.

 

AB has plenty of Vas OB, so he might as well use some to avoid chafing…..apparently Stink also has a lot of Vas laying around

Incoming Golf Balls have the right of way!

Vas is the go to stop blisters. It comes in handy for people like myself who have an allergic reaction to bandaids.

 

prevention

if a shoe fits properly it wont blister

shoes slightly too big will blister, as we know blistering is casued by heat from friction

for instance I need shoes with deep heel cups (pumas and FJ)

also use cotton socks only (no polyester in them) as polyester heats more easily

Golf is only a game…Yeah right who are you kidding?

 

Never had a blister playing golf therefore my cupboard is full of Vaso…... be great if I could find another use for it :)

Wouldn’t it just feel like your walking around with wet socks??

grooveless, the only way to play golf……

now a ’groove-snob’, and never going back!! :)

 

I’ve never had blisters from new golf shoes but always had FJ’s. I bought a pair of Adidas recently and didn’t blister on the first wear.

2nd wear I wore loose socks and blistered on the right heal. It ‘healed’ a bit :) by the next game and I wore tight fitting socks. No issue this time. Vas is a good tip to know though so I’ll keep that in mind. Thanks.

I think the shoe has to fit correctly in the first place you will not have a problem. Regardless of whether you’ve paid a squillion bucks for your shoes or not, it’s whether it fits your foot or not that will cause the blisters
