Allowed to wear spikes? Camara crew following Justin Thomas after he finished. He was walking on the sidewalk and it sure sounded like it to me. Brought back some memories.

I've never heard of a course not allowing it, do you know what courses don't allow it.I believe they can, but it is course dependent. Some don't allow it at all. They are told what they are allowed spike wise before tourney starts.

I think a good percentage of players wear them.
We we're on the same page, there are still quite a few pga players with the real deal. You can hear the click click on the cart paths when you go to events.I think he's talking about metal spikes vs soft spikes which is the standard these days.

A lot of them are wearing pro stinger spikes, aka the best of both worlds.
“The Champ Pro Stinger golf spikes provides golfers with unsurpassed traction in all weather conditions. Reminiscent of the traction provided from old school metal spikes, the Pro Stinger combines a hardened steel tip for ultimate traction, high impact polymer for durability from a soft pliable green friendly material.”
That’s cool to know. Because yea, I think it was Fitzpatrick today that walked right by us on the cart path and definitely had some clicking going on.
That makes sense, I noticed at the Valspar a couple years ago how manyade the tell tale noise.A lot of them are wearing pro stinger spikes, aka the best of both worlds.

A lot more guys wear them than you’d think, but you wouldn’t know with it just looking like a normal stinger softspike
I’m actually kind of shocked some of the younger guys wear them, because not many courses have allowed it much for a while it seems. Must be other tour players telling them they are better or something
They sound so good, although they were pretty much outlawed by the time that I started playing.
I've heard it on a few broadcasts too so the individual courses must allow them. They can't do more damage than the grandstands, right?
I think there's an unspoken rule that pros aren't gonna shuffle and drag their feet and jack up the greens. Amateurs, hahahahaa yeah right. NO chance it ends anything other than poorly.
Other than Furyk. He’s gotta go spikeless cause he loves to shuffle.
My dad wore them when I was a kid. All I can think of when I hear that noise is unloading our clubs out of his 300zx when I was around 7.They sound so good, although they were pretty much outlawed by the time that I started playing.

That's kind of my thinking as well, courses will make exception's for the Pro's. There is not a golf course within a 100 miles of me that allow metal spikes. At least the 25 courses that I have played. I would wear them for sure if it was allowed.
