I always wear my golf shoes at the range. Anytime I load up the clubs, the shoe bag goes in the trunk with them. Most of the time I'm in golf-appropriate attire, but I will have the occasional stop where I'm out in some athletic pants or jeans and a tshirt for the day and happen to get the itch to hit some balls.

I used to like to wear my golf shoes at the range... I feel more stable and I feel like I can rip at the ball a little harder....
However in the last few months I've stopped doing that. My left knee started to hurt after a range session because my shoes are just gripping the mat completely (when I wear sneakers my feet would just end up turning) and thus my knee is taking all the strain in my follow through. Am I the only one who has this problem? Do you guys always wear your shoes at the range or is it sneakers only? |

If I am hitting off mats I just stay in my sneakers. When I hit off grass, which is what I do most of the year, I wear my spikes. I hate hitting off mats as they give you a false sense of how you are hitting the ball. Even miss hits go better when on mats but grass will not let you get away with a bad swing.

My clubs and shoes never travel separately. I use them each time because I want to develop as much consistency as I can. I only have 1 pair (compared to the plethora of JB's collection) so they're easy to throw in the truck along with the clubs. I haven't experienced any knee pain from my body torque but I try to take my time when practicing at the range and not fire off shots rapidly like some do.
I don't hit off mats because I only visit the ranges when the grass is open. I don't have an indoor practice facility nearby to use mats for during the winter months, I just find another hobby or 2 to suck up all my time and money. ![]() |

I always wear regular golf shoes. I read once that if you practice how you play it's supposed to sharpen your focus because you're simulating on course conditions I wear my golf shoes at the range whether its mats or grass that day, I like to keep it consistent |
