Spikeless Shoe Traction

[oiler45]

I have never owned spikeless golf shoes because I am concerned about slipping. Question for you spikeless advocates: on dry, reasonably flat ground do you notice any difference in traction between spiked and spikeless models?

I plan to only use my spikeless shoes on rounds that I walk on dry days or to use at the range. Thanks

Love spineless. Been playing in ECCO Biom for years and they are the most comfortable golf shoe I have owned. I’ve played in all kind of conditions and really have only had slip issues when ground was hard and dry.

The Ecco biom hybrid & hybrid 2 were decent. The biom hybrid 3 are better; pretty close to as good as spiked shoes in my opinion. I don’t think twice about using them in wet conditions.

Love them.

Same as above, don’t think I’ve used actual spikes since 2011(ish) or so. Plus, I leave the house in the same shoes I play in, run quick errands without changing, etc...so convenience is nice too.

no problem on the conditions you mention. Where i do notice a lack of stability in my Puma Sport grips is on uneven to steep side hill situations. The feet will tend to shift in them. That could actually be due to the soft material they are constructed out of as opposed to being spikeless.

That said, when i went to Whistling Straits this fall. I took some spiked Footjoys. And don’t you know. I was only off the fairway or immediate rough once. But they came in handy then.

ecco hybrid biom 2 and biom zero are pretty good. I heard the 3s are great which means the new cool pros are good.

I think the best traction I’ve had was with the project M from Foot joy

I've had zero problems with my spikeless though I much prefer spikes.

I only find a spikeless problem in the mornings when I play on wet grass, side hill lies.

No problems. Have used puma, FJ and skechers spikeless over the years. No issues when they are used on dry ground. If it is wet I wear spikes.

I highly recommend the Adidas 360 XT spikeless or Footjoy Pro SL. They are the best shoes I've owned, and good in all conditions I've played in!

Agree with the Footjoy Pro SL, no issues in all conditions.. Most recently have also been using Skechers Golf Golf Elite V3 and no issues in the Northeast weather... Did just pick up a pair of the Adidas 360 XT spikeless last week on a deal, hoping to try them out weather permitting in the near future.

i bought a pair of FJ this season and they have been nice but I do feel that I have been slipping more then when I used spikes. Bought a new pair of FJ dryjoy for the next season
