I am excited to try these out! Have been having some back foot slipping issues and hopefully these can solve that. Probably due to worn spikes though lol.

Me too dude. I am in the market for new spikes, so I will be following everybody's reviews closely.
I already had their MaxPro wrench and didn't even associate the 2 together till now. Nice.

I requested the Zarma spikes. I walk almost every round I play, so I hope to be able to provide valuable feedback from that point of view. I wonder if I should walk a few rounds in my current spikes (which are still pretty fresh) and then change, for comparison's sake?

Me too, I got my golf shoes in feb and the spikes aren't only worn down, some of the little "arms" have snapped off and these little buggers have paid their dues, the rocks at my course and deep desert have really worn them down.
I'm going to see if the Zarma's are more durable and still have their stability in these conditions.

Oh one quick question, I'm assuming that we have to buy our own spike removing tool, anyone recommend a good one that's affordable?

I am having the same issue, lol. I have a buddy who is a golf nut who has one, so I think I will borrow his.
Ive always assumed they were all the same. Anyone know if this is true or not? Ive actually never changed my spikes before.

There aren't any around here, unfortunately, but I am almost certain a pair or needle nose pliars will achieve the same goal.

As for a tool to swap out spikes i have looked at the images for these spikes and they appear to use the same two prong spike wrench that most other spikes use. I purchased mine at wallyworld several years ago and I am betting it will work with these spikes also.
I am not sure if Champ reccomends this next tidbit but i spray just a touch of WD40 on the trhred of my spikes before I change them out. I nmakes it easier to take them out.
