That’s a true testament to the value of cleated footwear.”
At the AT&T Byron Nelson, 23 of the top 28 finishers chose replaceable cleat technology over spikeless/tennis shoes.
Replacement Softspikes® and Champ cleats can be purchased in the golf section of most large retailers, sporting goods stores, golf specialty and golf course pro shops across the country. Cleats can also be purchased online from any of these locations, your favorite online store or directly from www.golfspikes.com.
