Abstract/Contents:Discusses a study designed "to develop a procedure which could be used to evaluate the effect of golf shoe tread type on putting quality." States that "three significantly different sole designs were used...to provide the best chance to create putting quality variations," including metal spikes, DS-1 spikes and molded soft-spike outsoles. A mechanical putter was used to minimize variability in ball roll. Results indicate that "the mechanical putter and procedure developed in this study appear to be appropriate to evaluate the effects of shoe tread type on putting quality."
