Question for the testers about how long their former spikes lasted and what they have been doing since they got these:
I used to put my shoes on at home and throw some tennis shoes in the car in case I went somewhere after the round. I noticed that I was replacing the spikes a lot, just because of the added wear of walking from the car to the clubhouse and back. The past few months I have been getting the cart first, then putting on my golf shoes when I get back to the car to get my clubs and the wear on the spikes is considerably less. (It was amazing to me what a one minute walk on asphalt does to the life of spikes.
Just wondering what your routines are for putting on your golf shoes, and whether you have changed what you were doing from before now that you've got these. I've seen it mentioned that people avoid walking on the cart paths when they can, but I see a lot of golfers walking through the parking lot with their spikes on.
It made a huge difference for me in how long the spikes lasted (though I must admit I would continue to play in spikes that were pretty worn down, always saying that I needed to get new ones!).
As far as my usual routine with my spikes, I usually have regular shoes on until I get into the cart for the round. My old spikes in my FootJoys lasted around 8 months this way.
